Bunting welcomed the Hitachi High-Tech Analytical Science team and a film crew to their recently extended Redditch manufacturing facility. In the Customer Experience Centre and goods inwards, Bunting uses a Hitachi High-Tech X-MET8000 handheld X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) analyser. The film crew recorded the Bunting team using the equipment, both in controlled laboratory testing of customer…
Read MoreWet High Intensity Magnetic Separation Testing
The electromagnetic laboratory-scale Wet High Intensity Magnetic Separator (WHIMS) removes fine magnetics and para-magnetics from mineral slurries. Handling minerals in a slurry or suspension is preferable for many processors, especially when beneficiation involves wet processing. Additionally, a wet process often produces a better separation for very fine materials. In this educational video, Professor Neil Rowson…
Read MoreChute Magnet Separator Checks Magnetic Susceptibility
The Chute Magnet Separator or Magnetic Slide is a simple but important laboratory-scale wet magnetic separator for any material test facility. This magnetic test equipment enables the assessment of a particle’s magnetic susceptibility, which provides the platform for further tests on specific wet magnetic separators. Wet magnetic separation techniques are employed when processing slurries (i.e.…

The University of Birmingham has purchased a laboratory-sized Eddy Current Separator and Drum Magnet modular system from Bunting-Redditch. Students and professors undertaking research at the university will use the new Metal Separation Module to determine the recovery and recycling capabilities of a wide range of materials. The laboratory Metal Separation Module comprises of a Vibratory…
Read MoreNew XRF Enhances Mineral Testing Capabilities
The purchase of a new X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analyser enhances the mineral testing capabilities of the Bunting test laboratory based at the manufacturing facility in Redditch, UK. Hitachi High-Tech Analytical Science, based in Abingdon, UK, supplied the X-MET8000 Expert XRF analyser and provided comprehensive training for the technical staff at Bunting. The Science of X-Ray…
Read MoreTechnical Explanation of Rare Earth Roll Separator
The Rare Earth Roll Separator is one of the world’s most popular permanent magnetic separators used by mineral processors to separate paramagnetic minerals from dry materials. The Rare Earth Roll Separator is simple to install and use, whilst being exceptionally energy-efficient. The high-intensity magnetic strength enables the separation of very weakly magnetic minerals such as mica…
Read MoreMineral Processing Lab High Intensity Electromagnetic Filter
A high intensity Electromagnetic Filter has expanded the mineral testing capabilities in the Bunting-Redditch mineral processing laboratory. The Electromagnetic Filter is designed to remove fine iron and weakly magnetic materials from mineral slurries and ceramics slips and glazes. The new equipment expands the extensive range of high intensity magnetic separators already used in the test…
Read MoreMagnetic Separator and Metal Detector Growth in 2018
UK Manufacturing Success for Master Magnets Sales and enquiries for magnetic separators and metal detectors hit new highs in 2018. A 25% sales growth for the European Bunting Magnetics operation came two years after the Master Magnets acquisition in January 2017. “It has been an incredible year,” said our General Manager, Adrian Coleman. “Demand has…
