Magnetic filtration can improve efficiency in most steel processing operations such as steel production, both hot and cold.
Steel processing
Advantages
Typical Applications • Steel rolling mills • Sawing machines • Steel pipe cutting • Tube threading equipment • Steel quenching tanks • Surface treatment processes • Spray bars
Case study
• Automated cleaning ideal for heavy contamination • Improved surface finish • Reduced downtime • Suitable for arduous environments • 24/7 operation
Company Steelscape (USA) Application Steel rolling and pickling
Process Surface spray system
• Roller lubrication • Final wash process • Deep hole drilling
Heavy contamination blocked barrier filters within hours. Automag extracts 12000 Kg contamination / month – reject rates have fallen to zero.
Magnetic filtration enhances performance on a variety of machine tools. It offers a competitive edge to machine tool manufacturers particularly when servicing high precision applications.

Advantages
• Can be retrofitted to enhance existing filtration systems • Reduces machine maintenance/ downtime • Flow rates 70 to 10,000 litres per minute • 100% effective with low magnetic materials e.g. cast iron and tungsten carbide • Increases the equipment, value provides a solution for the customer
• VMC, HMC, and CNC machines • Multi-axis vertical turning centres • Grinding
Company Schaudt Mikrosa (Germany)
• Honing • Lapping • Deep hole/gun drilling • EDM machines • Laser cutters
Application CNC Manufacture
Process Camshaft grinding Reduced downtime by 50% and increased the life of grinding wheels by 30%.
High intensity magnetic filtration is the only option available to guarantee a high precision finish on tool cutting operations.
