Waalre-based Goudsmit Magnetics has developed a new pipe magnet that requires half the installation height of its predecessor and is also twice as strong. Manufactured entirely from stainless steel, the magnetic separator contains a core of neodymium magnets and creates a flux density of 12,000 gauss. The conical-shaped magnet core contains more pole plates, so even 30 μm particles stick to more engagement points. This results in a higher degree of separation and also makes it possible to capture smaller metal particles in addition to coarse ones. Steel particles present in the product flow such as bolts, nuts, washers, screws, small metal balls, broken threads and clips can be effortlessly separated from grains, corn, flour, wheat flour and other incoming goods flows. The new magnet system is suitable not only for mounting in free-fall pipes, but also for pressure pipes. The stainless steel bullet magnet can be used in food but also other industries. The 12,000 gauss pipe magnet was developed in response to specific market demands. The first requirement was to develop a pipe magnet with a low installation height that, with a small adjustment in terms of pipe length, can be easily integrated into existing processes. This, together with the high flux density, means that the magnet can already be used at goods intake. An additional advantage is that the pipe magnet captures smaller metal particles in addition to large metal particles, improving product quality. This prevents dust explosions and damage to machinery, resulting in production stoppages. The stainless steel pipe magnet can optionally be fitted with various flanges, such as DIN, Jacob etc. This makes the product widely applicable. Hall 10.1, Stand B.049
