South African magnetic service provider Magnet launched oil-free maintenance-free suspended permanent magnet iron removal solutions on July 2, matched with front-end drawer grate magnets to protect crushers and ball mills from damage by ferrous debris.
Local mines feature high temperature and heavy dust, requiring anti-rust and continuous self-cleaning performance. European imported equipment costs 60% higher than Chinese equivalents. Chinese rotary grate and drum magnetic separators with complete CE and explosion-proof certifications secured renovation orders for multiple open-pit mines in South Africa and Zimbabwe. Import orders for magnetic separation equipment from African mining clients rose 47% month-on-month in July.
