Dou­ble-flow centrifugal fan

In or­der to ob­tain as much iron as pos­si­ble when min­ing iron ore, the mag­netic, iron-bear­ing mag­netite must be sep­a­rated from the dewy rock as well as pos­si­ble. In the process, the blasted ma­te­r­ial is crushed into a fine “rock flour”. Due to the pro­duc­tion process, the fine flour still con­tains un­wanted coarse par­ti­cles, which have to be sep­a­rated from the fine prod­uct.

This sep­a­ra­tion is done with a stream of air. This is the mo­ment when the ra­dial fans from Scheuch COM­PO­NENTS come into play. The fine par­ti­cles fly with the air cur­rent and the coarse par­ti­cles re­main be­hind. In or­der to sep­a­rate the fine meal from the air flow, a fil­ter is needed at this point of the process, which is pro­duced by our sis­ter com­pany Scheuch GmbH.

In ad­di­tion to the cen­trifu­gal fans and fil­ters, var­i­ous ag­gre­gates are also pro­vided by Scheuch. The plan is to pro­duce 22,000,000 tonnes of ore con­cen­trate per year. This quan­tity cor­re­sponds to about 700 kg of ma­te­r­ial flow­ing through Scheuch Group prod­ucts per sec­ond. Per­for­mance at the high­est level!
