Magnetic Induction

Other products

A magnetic beam (plate separator) is a powerful industrial magnet in a stainless steel housing. It is usually mounted above the conveyor belt (so-called overbelt) or in chutes. The main goal is to protect crushing machines from destruction and ensure product purity.
Ferrite magnets work effectively at a greater distance (high suspension), but with less surface force. They are ideal for catching large pieces of iron (screws, nails, cans, excavator teeth) from a long distance. Neodymium separators have an extremely strong surface field, but shallower (shorter range). The decision should be made based on the type of separated material and cleanliness requirements.
We make our magnetic beams entirely of acid-resistant steel AISI 304 or 316 (on request). This ensures full resistance to corrosion, water, and difficult weather conditions. The product meets standards for the food industry (HACCP/IFS/BRC).
It is a device operated manually by an operator. Just drop attracted elements (screws, wires) outside the conveyor belt area. Cleaning frequency depends on the amount of contaminants in the product - the more metal, the more often you need to clean.
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. Send us dimensions of your conveyor belt and type of raw material, and we will select the appropriate solution.

Pros as well as cons of rare earth magnets.

Benefits

Besides their high retention, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
  • They retain magnetic properties for nearly 10 years – the loss is just ~1% (in theory),
  • Magnets perfectly resist against demagnetization caused by foreign field sources,
  • In other words, due to the metallic surface of silver, the element is aesthetically pleasing,
  • Magnetic induction on the working part of the magnet remains very high,
  • Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets are capable of operate (depending on the shape) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
  • Thanks to flexibility in designing and the ability to adapt to client solutions,
  • Versatile presence in modern industrial fields – they are commonly used in magnetic memories, motor assemblies, precision medical tools, and technologically advanced constructions.
  • Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer strong magnetic field in compact dimensions, which allows their use in miniature devices

Weaknesses

What to avoid - cons of neodymium magnets: weaknesses and usage proposals
  • Susceptibility to cracking is one of their disadvantages. Upon intense impact they can fracture. We advise keeping them in a strong case, which not only protects them against impacts but also raises their durability
  • Neodymium magnets demagnetize when exposed to high temperatures. After reaching 80°C, many of them experience permanent weakening of strength (a factor is the shape and dimensions of the magnet). We offer magnets specially adapted to work at temperatures up to 230°C marked [AH], which are very resistant to heat
  • They rust in a humid environment - during use outdoors we recommend using waterproof magnets e.g. in rubber, plastic
  • We suggest a housing - magnetic mount, due to difficulties in realizing nuts inside the magnet and complex shapes.
  • Potential hazard to health – tiny shards of magnets are risky, if swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child health protection. It is also worth noting that small components of these devices are able to be problematic in diagnostics medical when they are in the body.
  • Due to expensive raw materials, their price is higher than average,

Lifting parameters

Breakaway strength of the magnet in ideal conditionswhat it depends on?

Information about lifting capacity was defined for optimal configuration, taking into account:
  • using a plate made of low-carbon steel, functioning as a ideal flux conductor
  • whose transverse dimension equals approx. 10 mm
  • characterized by even structure
  • with total lack of distance (no impurities)
  • under axial force vector (90-degree angle)
  • at ambient temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius

Lifting capacity in real conditions – factors

It is worth knowing that the magnet holding may be lower depending on the following factors, in order of importance:
  • Gap (betwixt the magnet and the metal), since even a tiny distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) results in a drastic drop in lifting capacity by up to 50% (this also applies to varnish, rust or dirt).
  • Pull-off angle – remember that the magnet has greatest strength perpendicularly. Under shear forces, the capacity drops significantly, often to levels of 20-30% of the nominal value.
  • Plate thickness – insufficiently thick plate does not close the flux, causing part of the flux to be lost into the air.
  • Plate material – mild steel gives the best results. Alloy steels reduce magnetic properties and holding force.
  • Surface structure – the smoother and more polished the surface, the better the adhesion and higher the lifting capacity. Roughness acts like micro-gaps.
  • Heat – neodymium magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. At higher temperatures they lose power, and in frost gain strength (up to a certain limit).

Lifting capacity testing was conducted on plates with a smooth surface of optimal thickness, under perpendicular forces, however under shearing force the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate lowers the load capacity.

Warnings
Medical implants

Life threat: Neodymium magnets can turn off heart devices and defibrillators. Do not approach if you have medical devices.

Bone fractures

Risk of injury: The pulling power is so immense that it can result in blood blisters, pinching, and even bone fractures. Protective gloves are recommended.

Electronic devices

Do not bring magnets close to a wallet, computer, or TV. The magnetism can destroy these devices and wipe information from cards.

Nickel allergy

Allergy Notice: The Ni-Cu-Ni coating consists of nickel. If skin irritation happens, immediately stop handling magnets and wear gloves.

Dust is flammable

Machining of neodymium magnets carries a risk of fire risk. Magnetic powder reacts violently with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.

Keep away from children

Product intended for adults. Small elements pose a choking risk, leading to intestinal necrosis. Store out of reach of children and animals.

GPS Danger

Navigation devices and mobile phones are highly sensitive to magnetism. Direct contact with a strong magnet can decalibrate the internal compass in your phone.

Fragile material

Watch out for shards. Magnets can fracture upon violent connection, ejecting shards into the air. Wear goggles.

Do not underestimate power

Before starting, check safety instructions. Sudden snapping can break the magnet or injure your hand. Think ahead.

Maximum temperature

Watch the temperature. Heating the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will permanently weaken its magnetic structure and pulling force.
