Magnetic Plate

Application

• Magnetic plates are extensively used in CTC Tea machinery and in Biscuit stacking machines. They are also used for separating trapped iron in industries such as:
• Food (Tea, Spices, Coffee, Cocoa, Milk Powder etc.)
• Chemicals
• Fertilizers
• Pharmaceuticals
• Foundry Sand
• Cattle Feed Materials
• Minerals
• Detergents
• Conveying of light weight tin containers
• Conveying of M.S. sheets using multiple plates

How Does it Work?
Lighter Strength Plate Magnets offer cost-effective choices for applications with lower product flow rate, lower conveyor speeds, or thinner burden depths. High Strength Magnetic Plates with Strontium Ferrite Magnets / Rare Earth magnets can attract metal particles from thin layers of product conveyed on flat belts from distance of 6”.
Attract ferrous tramp from flat-belt.
Powerful Ceramic magnet reaches deep into conveyed material upto 6”.
Threaded holes are provided for easy mounting of these plates with other convenient option.
For Iron Removal, Magnetic Plates are generally located above the material flow attracting the iron particles. The Magnetic Separation Process involves the magnetic field penetrating the product flow and grabbing tramp iron as it passes by the Plate. The concentrated field holds tramp iron tightly to the magnet surface until removed during the cleaning process. For Separating of Ferromagnetic material like Tin/M.S. sheets and containers from conveyor belts, multiple Magnetic Plates at various locations are used. This prevents the falling off of sheets/containers back into the conveyor.
Features

• Efficient cost-saving recovery of harmful tramp iron in free-flowing materials
• Plate magnets can be mounted both, above and below the product flow
• Magnets like ceramic or rare earth magnets are normally used in plate
• Magnetic separators capture maximum common ferrous debris
• Durable stainless steel construction
• For easy cleaning, hinged plates can be swung out
• The Plate Magnets can be cleaned manually also
• Simple to install and have no maintenance
• Lightweight and user-friendly

There are two Types of Plate Magnets

• High Strength Magnetic Plates - (NdFeb Magnet – 4500 Gauss)
• Low Strength Magnetic Plates - (Ferrite Magnet – 1200 Gauss)

Construction
Magnetic Plates are available in flat and curved shape with required dimensions.The magnetic plates are made of either Ferrite or NdFeb magnets depending upon the required flux intensity. The magnetic surface is of Stainless Steel 304/316.
Specification

• The compact design of these powerful magnetic separators makes them simple
• Standard installations involve hinged models for swing–open cleaning
• Plate Type Suspended Magnets are also available without hinges for stationary or suspended installations
• Rare Earth is standard for food and pharmaceutical applications where product purity is paramount

Information Required for Design of Magnetic Plates

• Type of material
• Flow rate
• Size and concentration of contamination
• Flow passage dimensions
