Sollau, a prolific developer of magnetic separations equipment in Czech Republic, has several innovative new products tailored for industrial operations. Standouts in its product lineup include a triple magnetic drum using neodymium magnets for exceptional strength, conveyor separators designed with ferrite electromagnetic technology and airport sweepers with models designed using either neodymium or ferrite for varying applications and power.
With 40 magnetic poles, its Buffalo metal separator, shown above, can catch even small non-magnetic pieces and is suitable for recycling a wide variety of waste materials including electrical products, wiring, glass, even rubber and plastics. It recently displayed many of its capabilities at Inter Airport Europe 2025 in Munich in October, also at SOLIDS Expo Poland trade fair in Warsaw in November.
Triple type magnetic drum for 100% material purity
If maximum purity of the output material is required, it is advisable to use equipment that allows multi-stage separation such as its Triple type Magnetic Drum TMBZ. The TMBZ is designed so that the material passes through 3 separate magnetic drums during one pass. Each of them removes the remaining ferromagnetic impurities. This principle allows multiple separations within a single production line - without the need for an additional cycle or the installation of more equipment.
Each of the drums captures even those particles that the previous stage did not catch. This makes the output material significantly cleaner while the integrated design of three drums in one machine allows for smooth operation without unnecessary delays.
Electromagnetic overband separator
For operations that need to remove metal contaminants from high burden depths on a conveyor, Sollau produces its DND-AC-E electromagnetic separators. They deliver a deep and strong magnetic field. Thanks to automatic cleaning, they enable contionuous operation without manual intervention. Suitable for the mining, recycling and construction industries, they protect crushers and mills from damage. An installation height of up to 600 mm enables separation even from very thick material layers.
MSA EAGLE tow-behind magnetic sweepers for airports and large areas
Sollau’s line of magnetic sweepers for airports and large areas has become extensive. The MSA EAGLE line of tow-behind magnetic sweepers is produced in a basic width of 3 or 4 m, but commonly configured with three sweepers side by side, giving a total working width of over 9 meters. Able to capture metals at 45 km/h, it can clear a 30 m wide and 2 km long runway in 10 minutes.
They can be equipped with permanent magnets – either ferrite or high-performance neodymium ones. The magnet strength affects the speed at which the sweeper can pick up metal debris. A sweeper with ferrite magnets can capture metals at a speed of 25 km/h while models with neodymium magnets can capture metals at a speed of 45 km/h. An EasyDemag system provides convenient demagnetization at the touch of a button or by remote control directly from the vehicle.
Located in Velky Orechov, southeast of Brno, Sollau was established in 2011. While it specializes in the field of magnetic separation, it also provides vibratory equipment and an assortment of magnet and electromagnet products. A sister company focuses on materials and equipment for the plastics industry. For more info, see www.sollau.com.
