Master Magnets - Plate Magnets

Plate Magnets

Plate magnets are an inexpensive form of magnetic protection against occasional tramp iron contamination. They are usually installed within a chute or over a conveyor for the food and ceramic industry. Plate magnets are constructed from a magnetic stainless steel casing, having projected magnetic stainless steel poles.

The magnet itself is made from strontium ferrite, providing excellent magnetic separation for standard duties. We can also offer a plate magnet made from neodymium iron boron or similar rare earth materials for specialised applications, such as the removal of fine iron from powders. To extract metal from deeper burdens and increased throughput rates Master Magnets can also provide a dual deep field separator. All plate magnets are virtually maintenance free, offering a long service life not affected by wet conditions.

Typical Applications

The plate magnet is often used in similar applications to the suspension magnet but on a smaller scale. The suspension magnet can be used for extracting metals on belt widths between 450mm to 2000mm. If the belt width is any less than 450mm wide, then a plate magnet would be a sufficient alternative.

The Plate magnet can be used in various industries including the recycling industry, ceramics and powder handling, food processing, the pharmaceutical industry, plastic and glass manufacturing and the wood processing industry.

Models

The Standard Plate Magnet

The standard plate magnet is the most commonly used out of the Plate magnet range. The magnet itself is made from strontium ferrite and has a stainless steel casing with projected magnetic poles.

The Rare Earth Plate Magnet

The Rare Earth Plate Magnet is made from neodymium iron boron or similar rare earth materials which generate extremely high magnetic intensity. This particular model is used for specialised applications such as the removal of fine iron particles from powders. An optional tapered pole can be fitted to the Rare Earth Plate Magnet which ensures that any extracted contamination does not get pulled back into the product stream.

The Dual Deep Field Magnet

The Dual Deep Field Magnet is used to extract metals from deeper burdens and high throughput rates. With two powerful magnetic plates located at either side of the housing, the free falling product stream is fed through the top of the magnet and directed towards the plate surface by the diverter plate. Any ferrous materials are extracted by either of the magnets leaving only the clean product.

Diagonal Leg Plate Magnet

The Diagonal Leg Plate Magnet consists of two individual magnetic plates that are fitted into a diagonal leg arrangement. This particular model can provide double separation for when ferrous contamination may be trapped beneath a product burden.
