Eriez® 5-Star Service Center Repairs and Upgrades Scrap Drum Separators to Maintain Magnetic Strength

Report this content

Erie, Pa. — Eriez’ Magnetic Scrap Drums have been used for many years in scrap metal yards to separate iron and steel from other materials. Now, through Eriez’ 5-Star Service Center, both Permanent and Electromagnetic Scrap Drums can be repaired and upgraded for optimum efficiency. The Center is located in Lake City, PA. and is staffed with trained service technicians to expertly handle even the toughest service projects.

Magnetic Scrap Drum Separators are mainly used to reclaim ferrous materials in shredded car bodies, scrap metals, municipal solid waste, wood waste, slag, incinerator bottom ash, foundry sand and minerals processing applications. Over time, scrap drums used in harsh industrial environments may wear, but can be restored with proper maintenance.  

To keep the magnetic power at an optimum level, the Eriez’ 5-Star Service Center now offers a comprehensive maintenance program for Scrap Drums.  Portions of the maintenance program include:

  • Perform a visual inspection of shell, wiper, hub, shaft end and bearings
  • Upgrade magnetic element and replace shell, if necessary
  • Remove and replace coil for electromagnetic drum
  • Test the scrap drum separator and ship back to customer

 “Our team has the skill and knowledge to address customers’ issues and limit costly downtime of their scrap drums,” said Jim Lasko, Eriez’ 5-Star Service Center Manager. “We utilize original OEM parts, remanufacture equipment to original specifications and offer ‘as new’ warranties.”

Eriez also has service technicians available for in-house repairs and routine maintenance checks. “We understand that sending the equipment to our 5-Star Service Center is not always a viable option, so Eriez will come to you, even on short notice,” said Dave Hansen, Eriez’ Customer Service Manager.

Besides Scrap Drums, the 5-Star Service Center upgrades and maintains other Eriez equipment, including Eddy Current Separators, Suspended Electromagnets, Wet Drums, Vibratory Feeders, Lift Magnets and Metal Detectors.
