Material handling specialists, Telestack has introduced its Kore-Max tracked magnetic separator which allows mine operators and contractors to separate mill balls or other metal objects from contaminated ore material.

The fully mobile unit, which is the latest in its mining range, has a capacity of up to 300tph and can be fed by a wheel loader or excavator. The hopper has a capacity of 7m³ and is loaded from the rear.

It features a 1200mm wide belt feeder with hydraulic speed adjustment and hosts a combination of impact bars and impact rollers that help create a robust feeder module.

The hopper can be lined with the customer’s choice of wear liner and a host of other options exist including a heavy-duty fall brake system and hydraulic folding side extensions.

International Sales Manager, Alan Gilmore says: “This design of the metal separator has been the result of much discussion with our Dealers and end users who have urged Telestack to design a mobile metal separator that can go into a mine and add value to previously unusable contaminated material .The unit prevents severe damage to further processing equipment such as Cone crushers where liners can be damaged if mill balls enter the chamber causing significant downtime and cost to repair.”
