Description
Bunting’s torpedo magnets perform a highly desirable function for plastics manufacturers. They allow tramp metal to be removed from your product flow BEFORE it reaches your plastic molding machines. This is a key task, as even the smallest particle of tramp metal contamination allowed to remain in your material can go on to cause costly damage to the other equipment in your facility. This can effect molders in particular. Torpedo magnets provide highly efficient magnetic separation that allows you to avoid this risk of equipment damage and maintain a high-purity product.
Torpedo magnets from Bunting are designed to be used “Just-In-Time” (JIT) hopper loaders. They deliver a high standard of magnetic separation in a compact size and shape.
A torpedo magnet consists of a formed stainless steel ring. This ring is welded to a high-energy rare earth magnetic cartridge. The bottom of the torpedo magnet is a live magnetic pole that allows tramp metal to collect and hide. This prevents tramp metal from wiping off and reentering the product stream.
