Underflow Magnetic Separator

A plate magnet under the flow on an open chute

  • Mounts in the floor of an inclined chute
  • Product slides over the magnet face
  • Removes bolts, nuts and tool pieces ahead of finer stages
  • Cast aluminium or stainless encapsulated plate
  • Hinged mounting for fast cleaning

Overview - Underflow Magnetic Separator

The first magnet in the line

The plate sits in the chute floor so the product slides straight over the magnet face. Large iron pulls down onto the plate and stays there until the plate is swung clear and wiped.

Fitted before grids and rod separators, it takes out the large pieces that would otherwise bridge across the finer rods or damage them. Made to the chute width and burden depth.

Technical Data

  • Magnet: anisotropic ferrite; neodymium builds for deeper reach
  • Encapsulation: LM-6 cast aluminium or SS 304/316
  • Sizes: to the chute and duty, made to drawing
