Self-Cleaning Plate Housing Magnet

February 01, 2014

Bunting Magnetics Co. has introduced a new self-cleaning plate housing magnet. The new product will be used in industries with dry material processes.

Bunting Product Manager Rick Bigham, discussing the new self-cleaning plate housing magnet line, said: "The new Bunting self-cleaning plate housing magnet incorporates powerful rare earth magnets to reliably and consistently remove metal from flow-resistant materials. We expect it to be a great solution for free-flowing materials as well, particularly many abrasive products. The design of the new Bunting self-cleaning plate housing magnet makes it particularly applicable to hard-to-flow products with high moisture, oil, or fat content. Because the new magnets are automatically self-cleaning, they can be equipped with control packages and installed in hard-to-reach locations where access may be difficult."
