Other products

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). Neodymiums are unrivaled in catching fine filings, wires, and small screws. The decision should be made based on the type of separated material and cleanliness requirements.
The separator housing is high-quality stainless steel, welded by TIG method. This ensures full resistance to corrosion, water, and difficult weather conditions. Suitable for chemical, food, and pharmaceutical industries.
Cleaning a plate separator (static) is done manually. Periodically wipe the working surface with a cloth or slide collected metal to the side. Optionally, we offer systems facilitating cleaning (Extra Clean), which speed up maintenance.
As a manufacturer, we fulfill individual orders for specific conveyor belt widths. 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 and weaknesses of rare earth magnets.

Benefits

In addition to their long-term stability, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
  • They have constant strength, and over around ten years their performance decreases symbolically – ~1% (according to theory),
  • Magnets perfectly defend themselves against loss of magnetization caused by external fields,
  • The use of an shiny finish of noble metals (nickel, gold, silver) causes the element to have aesthetics,
  • Neodymium magnets achieve maximum magnetic induction on a contact point, which ensures high operational effectiveness,
  • Neodymium magnets are characterized by very high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and are able to act (depending on the form) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
  • Possibility of accurate machining and modifying to atypical requirements,
  • Versatile presence in modern industrial fields – they find application in data components, electric motors, medical devices, as well as industrial machines.
  • Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer impressive pulling force in compact dimensions, which makes them useful in miniature devices

Cons

Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
  • They are fragile upon too strong impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth protecting magnets using a steel holder. Such protection not only protects the magnet but also increases its resistance to damage
  • Neodymium magnets demagnetize when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent drop of power (a factor is the shape as well as dimensions of the magnet). We offer magnets specially adapted to work at temperatures up to 230°C marked [AH], which are extremely resistant to heat
  • When exposed to humidity, magnets usually rust. To use them in conditions outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as magnets in rubber or plastics, which secure oxidation as well as corrosion.
  • Limited ability of making nuts in the magnet and complex shapes - preferred is casing - magnet mounting.
  • Possible danger related to microscopic parts of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child health protection. It is also worth noting that small components of these products can complicate diagnosis medical in case of swallowing.
  • With mass production the cost of neodymium magnets can be a barrier,

Pull force analysis

Highest magnetic holding forcewhat it depends on?

The lifting capacity listed is a measurement result executed under standard conditions:
  • with the contact of a sheet made of special test steel, ensuring maximum field concentration
  • whose transverse dimension reaches at least 10 mm
  • with a surface cleaned and smooth
  • under conditions of no distance (surface-to-surface)
  • under axial force vector (90-degree angle)
  • at temperature room level

Key elements affecting lifting force

Bear in mind that the magnet holding may be lower depending on the following factors, in order of importance:
  • Space between magnet and steel – even a fraction of a millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by varnish or unevenness) drastically reduces the magnet efficiency, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
  • Loading method – catalog parameter refers to pulling vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet exhibits much less (typically approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
  • Substrate thickness – to utilize 100% power, the steel must be adequately massive. Paper-thin metal limits the attraction force (the magnet "punches through" it).
  • Plate material – low-carbon steel gives the best results. Alloy steels decrease magnetic properties and holding force.
  • Surface quality – the smoother and more polished the plate, the larger the contact zone and stronger the hold. Roughness acts like micro-gaps.
  • Temperature influence – hot environment reduces magnetic field. Exceeding the limit temperature can permanently damage the magnet.

Holding force was checked on a smooth steel plate of 20 mm thickness, when a perpendicular force was applied, however under attempts to slide the magnet the load capacity is reduced by as much as 5 times. Additionally, even a small distance between the magnet and the plate decreases the holding force.

Precautions when working with neodymium magnets
Nickel allergy

Certain individuals have a hypersensitivity to Ni, which is the typical protective layer for neodymium magnets. Extended handling might lead to skin redness. We suggest use protective gloves.

Material brittleness

Beware of splinters. Magnets can fracture upon violent connection, ejecting shards into the air. We recommend safety glasses.

Medical interference

Health Alert: Neodymium magnets can deactivate heart devices and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have electronic implants.

Mechanical processing

Mechanical processing of NdFeB material carries a risk of fire hazard. Magnetic powder oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.

Safe operation

Handle magnets consciously. Their powerful strength can surprise even experienced users. Plan your moves and respect their power.

Power loss in heat

Regular neodymium magnets (grade N) lose magnetization when the temperature goes above 80°C. This process is irreversible.

Threat to navigation

Remember: neodymium magnets generate a field that interferes with precision electronics. Maintain a safe distance from your mobile, device, and navigation systems.

Safe distance

Avoid bringing magnets close to a purse, laptop, or TV. The magnetism can permanently damage these devices and erase data from cards.

Choking Hazard

Neodymium magnets are not toys. Swallowing multiple magnets can lead to them attracting across intestines, which constitutes a direct threat to life and necessitates immediate surgery.

Serious injuries

Danger of trauma: The pulling power is so great that it can cause blood blisters, pinching, and even bone fractures. Protective gloves are recommended.
