Do you have issues with metal particles in your production process? The JACOB magnetic separator will effectively capture and remove them

Put an End to Metal Contamination with the JACOB Magnetic Separator

The JACOB magnetic separator is a solution that addresses this problem directly in the material flow. It effectively captures and separates ferromagnetic particles before they reach the machine or the final product.

As material or air passes through the separator, the flow comes into intensive contact with the magnetic tubes. Powerful neodymium tubes are positioned inside, generating high magnetic flux density and reliably capturing ferromagnetic particles, such as:

• iron filings,
• screws, nuts, tool fragments,
• fine ferromagnetic dust.

Contaminants adhere to the surface of the magnetic tubes and remain safely outside the product.

How Is the Magnetic Separator Cleaned? 

Cleaning takes place in three steps:

• removing the separator from the pipework system,
• removing the magnets from the housing,
• once the magnets are withdrawn, the metal particles fall off the housing surface on their own.

Easy cleaning = shorter downtime.

Where Can It Be Used?

The JACOB magnetic separator is suitable virtually wherever ferrous metals need to be separated from the product flow. 

• in mechanical and process installations (plant engineering) – protecting conveyors, mills, feeders and mixers,
• in the plastics industry – protecting injection and compression moulds from metal fragments,
• in the food industry – safe production of flour, sugar and other bulk food products with minimal risk of metallic foreign matter.

For food industry applications, the separator can be combined with JACOB DETECTABLE DESIGN seals, which make the sealing elements themselves detectable by inspection systems.

Why the JACOB Magnetic Separator Is the Right Choice

• Reliable removal of ferromagnetic particles from bulk materials and exhaust air directly in the product flow.
• The high performance and sensitivity of up to 9 neodymium tubes with a magnetic flux density of 10 000 Gauss capture even very fine particles that would otherwise pass through the system.
• Protection of machines, moulds and equipment, fewer breakdowns, lower wear, reduced risk of damage to moulds and process units.
• Short downtime and easy maintenance, quick cleaning without complex disassembly saves time and servicing costs.
• Greater food and product safety in combination with JACOB DETECTABLE DESIGN seals helps meet strict hygiene and safety standards.

If you have a problem with metal particles in production and are looking for a solution that is technically well designed, easy to maintain and reliable over the long term, the JACOB magnetic separator is the logical choice for modern, safe and efficient production.
