Abstract
In a method of the magnetic loading of a sintering material, magnetically susceptible sinterable substances of high magnetization and fine substances of slidable dropping at low speed are segregated in great amounts in an upper portion of a sintering material layer deposited on a pallet. More of magnetically susceptible sinterable substances such as mill scale, returned ore and the like of good magnetic attachment and fine substances of low drop speed are caused to be segregated in the upper portion of that layer. A magnetic force is applied to a starting sintering material, during movement of the latter having been facilitated in its particle size segregation on a sloping chute, by means of a cylindrical magnetic drum having built therein a permanent magnet and disposed downwardly of the sloping chute.
