Eriez Magnetics Europe has announced the introduction of a new magnetic separator into their ProGrade range. The ProGrade Auto Kwik Clean (AKC) Grate captures problematic ferrous metals, with the added advantage of automated cleaning. According to the company, this preserves product purity whilst eliminating downtime of machinery and saving costs. The Eriez AKC Grate utilises Mega (10,500 gauss) Rare Earth magnetic strength and automatically discharges any collected iron due to pneumatic and electronic components. The self cleaning property allows the grate to be used in inaccessible areas where magnetic grates previously would not be considered. The product can be implemented across a wide range of bulk handling and process industries inclduing mineral processing such as silica sand operations. (more…)
