Magnetic Induction

See also proposals

A magnetic beam (plate separator) is a powerful industrial magnet in a stainless steel housing. It can also be mounted in a gravity channel down which raw material falls. Protects mills, crushers, and shredders from falling screws, excavator teeth, or hammers.
Ferrite is cheaper and has deeper field penetration, which is good with a thick layer of raw material. We recommend them for protecting machines against large, heavy scrap (so-called tramp iron). Neodymium versions are used for precise cleaning of raw material from small particles (food industry, plastics). The decision should be made based on the type of separated material and cleanliness requirements.
The construction is tightly welded from acid-resistant sheet, which guarantees tightness. This ensures full resistance to corrosion, water, and difficult weather conditions. The product meets standards for the food industry (HACCP/IFS/BRC).
Cleaning a plate separator (static) is done manually. Scrap is removed by mechanically moving it to the edge, where the magnetic field is weaker. Cleaning frequency depends on the amount of contaminants in the product - the more metal, the more often you need to clean.
We can produce a magnetic block perfectly matched to your installation and requirements. We design separators according to the orderer's requirements, taking into account material specifics. Contact us to receive a free quote and technical drawing.

Strengths as well as weaknesses of neodymium magnets.

Pros

In addition to their long-term stability, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
  • Their strength is maintained, and after approximately ten years it decreases only by ~1% (according to research),
  • They have excellent resistance to magnetic field loss due to external fields,
  • By using a reflective layer of silver, the element gains an professional look,
  • The surface of neodymium magnets generates a intense magnetic field – this is a distinguishing feature,
  • Made from properly selected components, these magnets show impressive resistance to high heat, enabling them to function (depending on their form) at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
  • Thanks to modularity in forming and the ability to customize to client solutions,
  • Versatile presence in high-tech industry – they find application in mass storage devices, drive modules, medical devices, as well as other advanced devices.
  • Compactness – despite small sizes they provide effective action, making them ideal for precision applications

Disadvantages

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
  • At very strong impacts they can crack, therefore we recommend placing them in strong housings. A metal housing provides additional protection against damage, as well as increases the magnet's durability.
  • Neodymium magnets lose their force under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their power. Therefore, we recommend our special magnets marked [AH], which maintain stability even at temperatures up to 230°C
  • Due to the susceptibility of magnets to corrosion in a humid environment, we suggest using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic or other material resistant to moisture, when using outdoors
  • We suggest a housing - magnetic mechanism, due to difficulties in producing threads inside the magnet and complex shapes.
  • Possible danger to health – tiny shards of magnets can be dangerous, if swallowed, which becomes key in the context of child safety. Furthermore, tiny parts of these devices are able to disrupt the diagnostic process medical when they are in the body.
  • Higher cost of purchase is a significant factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications

Pull force analysis

Maximum lifting capacity of the magnetwhat affects it?

Holding force of 0.00 kg is a measurement result performed under specific, ideal conditions:
  • using a plate made of high-permeability steel, serving as a circuit closing element
  • whose transverse dimension equals approx. 10 mm
  • characterized by even structure
  • under conditions of no distance (surface-to-surface)
  • for force applied at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
  • in neutral thermal conditions

Determinants of practical lifting force of a magnet

During everyday use, the actual holding force results from a number of factors, listed from crucial:
  • Air gap (between the magnet and the plate), because even a microscopic distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) results in a reduction in force by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, corrosion or debris).
  • Force direction – catalog parameter refers to pulling vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet exhibits much less (often approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
  • Base massiveness – too thin plate does not accept the full field, causing part of the flux to be escaped into the air.
  • Material composition – not every steel reacts the same. High carbon content weaken the attraction effect.
  • Plate texture – ground elements ensure maximum contact, which increases force. Rough surfaces weaken the grip.
  • Thermal factor – hot environment reduces magnetic field. Too high temperature can permanently demagnetize the magnet.

Holding force was measured on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when the force acted perpendicularly, whereas under attempts to slide the magnet the holding force is lower. In addition, even a slight gap between the magnet and the plate reduces the load capacity.

Precautions when working with NdFeB magnets
Permanent damage

Monitor thermal conditions. Exposing the magnet to high heat will permanently weaken its properties and pulling force.

Crushing force

Risk of injury: The attraction force is so great that it can cause hematomas, crushing, and even bone fractures. Protective gloves are recommended.

Immense force

Before use, check safety instructions. Sudden snapping can break the magnet or injure your hand. Be predictive.

No play value

Product intended for adults. Tiny parts pose a choking risk, causing severe trauma. Store away from children and animals.

Protect data

Intense magnetic fields can erase data on credit cards, hard drives, and storage devices. Maintain a gap of min. 10 cm.

Allergy Warning

It is widely known that the nickel plating (the usual finish) is a common allergen. If your skin reacts to metals, refrain from touching magnets with bare hands and choose encased magnets.

Magnets are brittle

Despite the nickel coating, the material is brittle and cannot withstand shocks. Avoid impacts, as the magnet may shatter into hazardous fragments.

Magnetic interference

A powerful magnetic field interferes with the operation of magnetometers in smartphones and GPS navigation. Keep magnets near a smartphone to prevent damaging the sensors.

Implant safety

Health Alert: Strong magnets can deactivate pacemakers and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have medical devices.

Mechanical processing

Combustion risk: Rare earth powder is highly flammable. Avoid machining magnets in home conditions as this may cause fire.
