Auto - Shuttle

At A Glance

Protection: Secondary

Feed Type: Gravity

Material Type: NdFeB

Cleaning Type: Automatic

Our Auto-Shuttle magnetic separator enables screening of processed products 24 hours a day, seven days a week, without the need for manual intervention. The system can even carry out a full clean without the need to stop the process. The unit is supplied with a pre-programmed PLC that can either work independently or connected to the central control rooms system for remote activation or monitoring etc. There are reed switches fitted to each end of the separator tubes to indicate the position of each magnetic core. The full system remains air tight throughout normal operation making it suitable for environments where ATEX equipment is required.

The magnetic cores remain in the process chamber until a cleaning signal is given. Then compressed air is fed into each separator tube forcing the core to the other end of the unit. The contamination follows the core, which first passes through the product return chamber, which prevents loss of good product, and into the cleaning chamber where the collected contamination is deposited. The cleaning chamber is fitted with a transition piece, which allows a collection container to be fitted. It is this container that is removed to assess the collected contamination.
