Magnetic Product Selection Guides and Technical Resources

Use these resources to choose a product family, understand the specifications that affect performance, and prepare the information required for a useful quotation. Start with the application decision you need to make rather than reading every possible topic.

Choose a Product Family

Custom Neodymium Magnets for grade, shape, coating, magnetization, tolerance, and quantity requirements.
Custom Magnetic Assemblies for magnets integrated with steel parts or application-specific structures.
Magnetic Drum for conveyor discharge, chute, or enclosed separation concepts.
Magnetic Grate & Tube Components for gravity-fed powders and granules.
Drawer Magnet when the powder line needs an enclosed housing and pull-out access.
Easy-Clean Magnetic Grate when recorded cleaning frequency justifies a core-and-sleeve release structure.
Suspended Magnet for removing tramp iron above a conveyor.

Comparison and Selection Guides

A stronger material or higher surface field is not automatically the correct choice. Temperature, working distance, target iron, magnetic circuit, operating cost, and cleaning system must be reviewed together.

Prepare a Better Specification

Magnetic separator application data
Custom magnet drawing and specification checklist
Custom magnetic assembly specification checklist
Conveyor data checklist
Hopper and chute drawing checklist
Material sample and testing checklist

A useful specification defines the operating condition and acceptance method. “12,000 Gauss magnetic separator” is not enough to confirm a separator type, working width, capacity, or capture result.

Technical Fundamentals

Each guide explains a specific engineering decision and must be supported by reviewed diagrams, measurement methods, and product-specific documentation before numerical claims are added.

Product Selection Guides

Suspended Magnet Selection Guide: belt, burden, target iron, height, position and cleaning duty.
Magnetic Drum Selection Guide: material, feed, drum geometry, magnetic arc, speed and splitter.
Magnetic Head Pulley Selection Guide: conveyor interface, loads, arc, lagging and discharge trajectory.
Magnetic Tube Selection Guide: dimensions, ends, magnetic area, shell, temperature and test method.
Magnetic Grate Selection Guide: opening, rows, spacing, flow, materials and cleaning.
Drawer Magnet Selection Guide: housing, inlet/outlet, rows, seals and extraction space.
Easy-Clean Magnetic Grate Selection: core, sleeve, working gap, stroke and cleaning frequency.
Magnetic Separator Placement Guide: choose protection, liberation, discharge and final-control positions.

Custom Magnet and Assembly Guides

Installation, Commissioning and Maintenance

Magnetic Separator Safety Guide: permanent field, guarding, hazardous energy, lifting and cleaning hazards.
Suspended Magnet Installation: position, height datum, structure, clearance, discharge and commissioning.
Overband Magnet Maintenance: cleaning-belt tracking, tension, rollers, bearings, drive and discharge.
Magnetic Head Pulley Installation: conveyor interface, loads, magnetic arc, trajectory and splitter.
Magnetic Drum Splitter Adjustment: stabilize feed, observe trajectories and sample both fractions.
Magnetic Tube Inspection: visual, dimensional and repeatable magnetic checks.
Magnetic Grate Cleaning: isolation, safe removal, contamination records and reinstallation.
Magnetic Separator Troubleshooting: diagnose changed process, mechanical and discharge conditions.
Preventive Maintenance Checklist: build product-specific tasks and documented maintenance intervals.

Advanced Comparison and Buying Decisions

Testing, Acceptance and Procurement

Magnetic Separation Material Testing: define representative samples, trials, analysis and scale-up limits.
Magnetic Field Test Report Guide: require repeatable Gauss positions, instruments and conditions.
Magnetic Pull Force Test Guide: control test steel, gap, direction, fixture and reporting.
Packaging and Shipping Guide: define protection, restraints, marking, documents and receiving inspection.
Magnetic Separator Spare Parts: plan wear, critical and insurance spares from the approved BOM.

Compliance and Documentation Guides

CE Marking for Magnetic Separators: define the supplied machine, applicable EU rules, technical documentation and declaration before the mark is used.
ISO Certificate Verification: check the certified legal entity, site, scope, dates, certification body and status.
Food-Contact Magnetic Separators: specify contact parts, materials, finish, welds, seals and cleaning conditions.
ATEX Magnetic Separators: prepare zone, substance, temperature, ambient and equipment-category inputs.
Material Certificate Guide: trace stainless steel, magnets, coatings and components to the finished supply.
Declaration vs Certificate vs Test Report: understand each document’s issuer, purpose and limitation.

Compliance is configuration- and market-specific. A component report, factory certificate or website badge cannot be extended automatically to the complete magnetic separator.

How We Turn This Guidance into a Project Decision

Magnetic Product Selection Guides and Technical Resources: seller-side application review

Your buying problem: General product information cannot show whether a magnetic solution will control contamination, prevent equipment damage or fit the available production space.
What we review: We confirm your material, particle size, moisture, temperature, throughput, contaminant, installation position, interfaces, environment and cleaning requirement.
What we do: We compare suitable structures, configure the practical option and coordinate the drawing, manufacturing route and inspection scope.
Buyer value: This helps you reduce selection risk, avoid rework and connect the purchase to a clear operating and quality-control objective.
Boundary: We do not present an unverified model, performance number or certification as a confirmed project fact.
Next step: Send the material and target, particle range, moisture, temperature, throughput, contamination, installation drawing, available space, cleaning preference and any sample or site video. Send project data for our review
