Applications

Magnetic belt conveyors are important magnetic product that provides holding action for vertical, inclined or horizontal material handling for conveying, automation and part handling applications. Magnetic conveyors are created by placing permanent ceramic rare earth magnets in the bed of a standard conveyor.

Types
Magnetic conveyors are of different types depending upon the application and configurations. The important types of magnetic conveyors used are as follows:

• Beltless Magnetic Conveyors
  The design of beltless magnetic conveyors are meant for providing positive control of ferrous metal materials. They are available in various forms and configurations. Below a non-magnetic stainless
  
  

  Buying Tips Magnetic conveyor should be selected before assessing the requirement. Buyer should select the conveyor by keeping in mind the nature of the materials he has to handle. The width and magnets used in the magnetic conveyor should be judged properly. The material leakage possibility should be keenly observed. The cleaning system of the conveyor should also be taken into consideration.

  steel slider bed, permanent magnets are conveyed to move and convey ferrous metal objects. The sealed conveyor housing can be completely submerged in machine reservoir tanks and the internal self-adjusting take up system, which eliminates the need for maintenance.
  
  
• Magnetic Belt Conveyors
  Magnetic belt conveyors effectively convey the ferrous objects on high speed horizontal and inclined to vertical conveyor belts. Below the conveying belt there is a permanent or electromagnetic rail which attracts the ferrous objects to the belt. This magnetic attraction acts as a clamping force against the conveyor. This cause the ferrous objects to move with the belt and able to overcome any angle of incline or decline. Conveyors are available with different belt width.

Features
The features of the magnetic conveyor are:

• The ferrous part is held to the belt by the magnetic conveyors.
• For elevation changes or part holding, it is suitable.
• It can also be applied for upside down applications.
• Strength and size of magnetic field depends upon the applications.
• It is available in different belt width.
• For incline and decline different types of angle options can be used.

Applications
Magnetic conveyor has wide applicability. They find their usage in the following industries:

• Mining
• Construction
• Chemicals
• Food
• Cement
