Why it matters
Designed for precision, built to last
Our magnetic separators deliver dependable, high-selectivity separation, enhancing recovery and product quality across all stages of the flowsheet.
In today’s complex mineral processing landscape, separating magnetic from non-magnetic materials is challenging, especially with fine particles and intricate ores. Traditional methods fall short, but our advanced technology ensures the flexibility and performance to exceed industry standards.
The Solution
All the juice in one squeeze
The MT Reading Wet High Intensity Magnetic Separator (WHIMS) embodies the principle that precision unlocks quality. By effectively separating fine, weakly magnetic minerals from slurries, it enables operators to extract higher quality minerals per ton than anyone else.
The WHIMS is a testament to precision engineering and expert craftsmanship. Built by highly skilled engineers, each detail is meticulously designed to ensure optimal performance and reliability. This exceptional level of precision allows the WHIMS to deliver unparalleled accuracy in mineral separation, reflecting the dedication and expertise that define its creation.
Technology
Advanced magnetic design
Our WHIMS are precisely engineered with an unparalleled density of dedicated magnetic coils per unit area, ensuring sharp mineral separation performance that stands unmatched in the industry.
Complementing this, our proprietary technology in salient plate design, generates an intense magnetic gradient, enabling the precise capture of a wide range of particle sizes. This focused magnetic intensity maximises mineral yield while minimising waste, setting a new standard in magnetic separation.
With continuous refinement and innovation, our WHIMS remain the benchmark for precision, efficiency, and reliability in the field.

Magnetics
More tools in the box
The WHIMS (Wet High Intensity Magnetic Separator) is used for separating fine, weakly magnetic minerals like hematite from mineral sands. They are also effective and commonly used in upgrading iron ore fines.
Rare Earth Drum Magnetic Separators (REDs) are widely used in the minerals processing industry for separating highly paramagnetic minerals like ilmenite, garnet, and chromite. They enhance recovery rates and improve product purity by efficiently removing magnetic impurities.
RERs concentrate dry and free flowing granular particles. Typical applications include production of Ilmenite, Chromite and hematite concentrates. (good at fractionizing)
The IRMS is designed for optimal magnetic field strength and adaptability, efficiently separating weakly magnetic particles, including those with (close in magnetic) magnetic properties like monazite and garnet.
The LIMS is designed for processing strongly magnetic minerals such as magnetite. It delivers dependable separation in coarse and fine iron ore applications, providing essential support in the early stages of mineral processing for high recovery rates and consistent product quality.
