Magnetic
Separation for Materials Flows that Bridge |
| |
 |
The Problem:
An Indiana company which compounds plastic resin required
magnetic separation equipment to improve product purity. They
contacted B & H to come up with a solution for their ferrous
contamination problem. Upon arrival to their facility it was
discovered that the powder product contained a high amount
of moisture which made it bridge and clog. A standard Grate
Magnet would not work for this application as the material
would tend to clog through the 1-inch openings in between
the magnetic tubes.

The Equipment:
Eriez Magnetic Rota-Grate®
|
|
The Solution: Eriez Rota-Grate® Permanent
Magnetic Separators have been specifically designed to remove
both large pieces of unwanted iron as well as minute ferrous
particles from material flows that tend to clog and bridge
when passed through small openings. This dual action unit
rotates a number of powerful magnetic tubes through the
material. The magnetic action attracts and holds the unwanted
iron, and the rotary action prevents the material flow from
packing and plugging the processing line.
This action further combs and breaks apart materials that
tend to cling together forcing all particles to pass close
to moving magnetic tubes.
Manual clean, easy to clean, and self-cleaning models are
available.

The Result:
After reviewing the recommendation and proposal offered by
B & H and Eriez, the Indiana company purchased (6) six
Eriez Rota-Grates® for immediate installation. We were
able to meet their quick delivery requirement, and more importantly,
the six Rota-Grates® have been successfully operating
and removing ferrous contamination since 2000.
