Suspended Magnet in India

Suspended Magnet Manufacturer

Suspended Magnet is used to remove contaminants from the conveyor belts and gravity chutes. It is also used to remove ferrous particles from other instruments like vibratory feeder and other production line equipments. The pieces of iron collected by magnets can be reused for other processes. suspended magnets are used for the industrial applications where large volume of material is used for the production. It is used in the coal, minerals, slag, ores, stones and plastics. It is also used for the food processing applications to get rid of ferrous contaminants. In processing of the wheat, corn, sugar, grain and many more food products, suspended magnets are used.

Heavy duty machineries are regularly cleaned to protect them from wear and tear. We provide suspended magnets for the easy to use arrangement to clean these machineries. It efficiently removes residual ferrous bits from these machineries. By removing these contaminants, it helps these machineries for their longer service life. For some production lines, suspended magnets are used to clean feeders and belts that significantly enhance working capacity of the plants.

  • Useful for heavy duty systems
  • Available with high economic range

Machinery Protection with Industrial Suspended Magnets

Suspended magnets (often called suspension magnets) are heavy-duty blocks designed to be suspended over conveyor belts to capture tramp metal from thick layers of moving materials. Positioned at a specific height above the burden depth of the conveyor, these permanent or electromagnetic units create a deep magnetic field that pulls up iron shards, nails, bolts, and scrap pieces. This prevents these metal fragments from entering crushers, shredders, pulverizers, and mills, eliminating severe equipment breakdowns.

Our suspended magnets are built with high-quality carbon steel or stainless steel housings, protecting the internal ceramic or high-gradient neodymium magnetic poles. They are widely preferred in industries like mining, quarrying, coal power plants, cement production, wood processing, and bulk recycling plants. These systems offer an economic, low-maintenance solution that safeguards downstream processing equipment and improves final product quality.

FAQs About Suspended Magnets

1. What is a suspended magnet and how does it function? + It is a heavy permanent block or electromagnet suspended over conveyor lines to attract and extract ferrous tramp metal from bulk material streams before downstream processing.
2. Where should a suspended magnet be installed? + They are typically suspended directly over the conveyor belt crosswise, or inline at the conveyor discharge pulley where the material is in suspension, which allows easier separation.
3. How is the tramp iron removed from a suspended plate magnet? + These are manual-cleaning magnets. The operator must periodically stop the conveyor, swing the magnet away from the belt, and wipe off the accumulated metal fragments using a scraper or gloved hand.
4. Does a suspended magnet require electrical power? + No, our standard suspended magnets are permanent magnetic blocks (Ferrite or Neodymium) which operate continuously without consuming any electrical energy. We also manufacture electromagnetic versions if required.
5. What is the difference between a suspended magnet and an over band separator? + A suspended magnet is a stationary block that must be cleaned manually, whereas an over band separator has a rotating conveyor belt around the magnet that automatically discharges the metals continuously.
6. What determines the suspension height of the magnet? + The suspension height depends on the conveyor belt width, belt speed, burden depth of the material, size of the target tramp metal, and the overall magnetic strength of the block.
