A Plate Magnet is a device that uses a magnet to remove ferrous metal from non-ferrous material on a conveyor belt or a vibratory feeder. The device is installed above the conveyor and attracts the metal from the material flow. The metal is then discharged at the end of the magnet, while the non-metallic material continues to move along the conveyor or the feeder. The Plate Magnet is designed to protect the downstream machinery from damage caused by metal contamination.
The Plate Magnet is widely used in various industries, such as recycling, mining, plastic, steel, chemical, and pharmaceutical. The Plate Magnet can improve the quality and purity of the product, reduce the waste and energy consumption, and save resources. The Plate Magnet is available in different types, sizes, strengths, speeds, and depths, depending on the application and the material size. The Plate Magnet can be manual or automatic, depending on the operator’s preference.
Magnetic Plate normally installed in ducts, spots, feed trays on belt conveyor of screens and in chutes constructed of any type of magnetic material. The magnets used in Magnetic Plate attract the magnetic objects from considerable distance even its dump under other material.
