Tramp Metal Removal Without Shutdown
1” Automated Self-Clean Drawer Magnets utilize a specialized magnetic circuit designed for the efficient capture of small contaminants, such as metal shavings and wear, from dry powder or granular products in gravity-fed chutes. The MPI Automated Self-Clean 200 Series Drawer Magnets enhance equipment protection during processing operations like milling and mixing and uphold high product quality through their automatic cleaning feature. These magnets consist of two tiers of high-intensity rare earth magnetic tubes, ensuring maximum contact with the product stream to eliminate ferrous tramp metal effectively. The staggered arrangement of the 1-inch diameter tubes prevents product bridging and maximizes filtration efficiency. As the product flows through the housing, tramp metal is attracted to the magnetic tubes, and a pneumatically operated cleaning system removes the contaminants to a designated disposal area, maintaining a clean product stream.

One Inch Tube Continuous-Clean Drawer Magnet Product Details
The continuous flow drawer magnets from MPI incorporate two tiers of high-intensity rare earth magnetic tubes, providing superior magnetic filtration through direct product contact on the tubes, which captures ferrous tramp metal from the product stream.
The product passes through a series of magnetic tubes purposefully designed to create an exceptionally efficient magnetic circuit. Each row of magnetic tubes is staggered to prevent product bridging or choking, optimizing magnetic filtration. As tramp metal contaminants cling to the magnetic tubes, pneumatically controlled cylinders operate one double bank drawer of magnetic tubes at a time to extract the tramp metal from the product stream safely. This design allows one drawer to clean while the other continues filtering the product stream, enabling uninterrupted flow. The robust cleaning cycle seamlessly supports the flow design. After the solenoid is manually or electrically actuated, the cylinders retract, drawing the magnetic tubes through the stripper assembly to dispose of the collected tramp iron outside the product flow area. The cylinders then return to the operational position, pushing the magnetic tubes back through the stripper assembly into the housing.
