What are magnetic separators?

Magnetic separators are industrial devices that remove ferrous metal (iron, steel, tramp metal) from powders, granules, liquids or conveyed bulk using permanent magnet fields. Plants choose the housing style — grate, bullet, drawer, pulley or plate — to match flow path, cleanability and contaminant size.

Arrowmatics Magnets supplies these separators from Shah Alam across Malaysia. Typical rare-earth designs operate in the 10,000–13,000 gauss range. We do not publish RM list prices; WhatsApp +60 12-211 2522 for a written quote.

Food-grade grate magnets Malaysia?

Yes. Food processors in Malaysia use stainless food-grade grate and drawer magnets in hoppers, sifters and packing lines to catch fine ferrous before metal detectors or finished goods. Tell us product type, temperature and opening size for the right tube diameter and bar spacing.

Conveyor tramp-iron control

Suspension magnets: overband and suspended plate

Suspension magnets hang above a conveyor belt and pull tramp iron out of the material passing underneath, protecting crushers, screens and downstream equipment. We quote them to your belt and duty.

What is a suspension (overband) magnet?

A suspension magnet is hung on chains or brackets over a conveyor so ferrous pieces are drawn off the burden and stick to the magnet. An overband (self-cleaning) type has a running belt around the magnet that carries the captured iron out to a discharge point. A suspended plate magnet is a fixed plate that is cleaned by hand or by swinging it clear. Overband units suit continuous, heavier tramp-iron loads; plate types suit lighter loads and easier access.

What we need to quote a suspension magnet

  • Belt width, belt speed and burden depth on the conveyor
  • Hanging height — gap from magnet face to the top of the burden
  • Material and tramp iron — what is carried, and the typical size of the iron to remove
  • Overband or plate, mounting space, and site power if a belt motor is needed

WhatsApp +60 12-211 2522 with a photo of the conveyor for a written quote. We do not publish list prices.

Full-weld stainless steel plate magnet for food plants
Full-weld stainless plate magnet
New · Food-safety ready

Plate magnets up to 10,000 Gauss. 100% full weld.

Continuous seal welds in SS304/SS316/SS316L, no crevices, no exposed fasteners and a smooth, cleanable finish. Designed to support your HACCP and ISO 22000 food-safety programme, with a strong ferrous foreign-body control you can inspect and clean with confidence.

Typical rating; confirm per application and air gap. Customers remain responsible for their own certification.

Magnetic bars & grate magnets

Magnetic bars: why full weld?

Full-weld construction is available, built to order for magnetic bars, tubes, threaded square bars and grate magnets on food, pharma and hygiene-sensitive lines. Not every bar model is full weld, so please confirm the build spec with us when we quote.

  • No screws, nuts or threads — without full weld, grate and bar magnets can be assembled with screws or nuts to hold parts together. Those fasteners create crevices and threads where product deposit builds up and can cause corrosion, which is a hygiene problem. Full weld removes them, so there is nowhere for deposit to sit.
  • No crevices — product, grease and moisture have nowhere to trap, so the bar is easier to clean and inspect.
  • Sealed NdFeB core — the magnet is closed off from water, so no rust and no magnet dust getting into your product.
  • Wet washdown and high-pressure cleaning — a sealed weld is built to withstand it.
  • Vibration and impact resistance — end caps and welds are not likely to loosen the way pressed or screwed-in parts can.
  • Smooth, polished weld — no exposed fasteners and no grooves on the product side.

Materials: stainless steel grades 304, 316 and 316L are available for construction. 316 and 316L generally suit more corrosive or washdown-heavy environments. Please confirm the grade at quotation.

Designed to support your HACCP and ISO 22000 programme. Arrowmatics does not claim its own certification; customers remain responsible for theirs. Also see full-weld plate magnets, and tell us your product and washdown method on WhatsApp +60 12-211 2522.

Separator types we supply

Choose by process location and cleanability. Unsure? Send a photo or line sketch on WhatsApp.

Square stainless grate magnet

Grate magnets ~10,000–13,000 G

Magnetic tubes in a grate frame for hoppers, chutes and free-fall powders. Ideal for food, plastics and fine dry materials. Easy wipe-clean of captured fines. Food-grade stainless options available (304, 316, 316L). Full-weld bar and grate builds available to order for hygiene-sensitive lines.

Stainless bullet magnet, front and side views

Bullet magnets Pipeline / pneumatic

A tapered magnet core in a pipe housing for pneumatic or gravity product lines. Captures tramp metal without large pressure drop when sized correctly. Common in plastics compounding and powder transfer.

Double-drawer stainless magnetic separator housing

Drawer magnets Multi-row / hopper

Pull-out drawer with one or more rows of magnetic tubes under hoppers or before extruders. Good for higher throughput and staged capture. Food-grade and industrial builds available.

Magnetic pulleys Conveyor head

Replace or supplement the head pulley on a belt conveyor so ferrous is discharged below while non-magnetic product continues. Used in recycling, aggregates and scrap sorting.

Stainless steel suspended plate magnet for conveyor tramp iron

Suspension magnets Overband · suspended plate

Hung over a conveyor belt to pull tramp iron out of bulk material. Overband (self-cleaning) and suspended plate formats, quoted to belt width and duty. See suspension magnets.

Stainless steel liquid-line magnetic trap with swing-bolt lid for a pipeline
Pipeline liquid trap · swing-bolt lid
Liquid line / filter

Liquid-line magnetic trap

Best for liquids, sauces, pastes and slurries moving through a pipe, where fine iron must be caught in-line. The trap sits in the pipeline; magnetic bars inside catch ferrous fines and are pulled out for cleaning through a lid.

  • In-line on the pipe
  • Stainless build (304 / 316 / 316L available)
  • Sized to your pipe

To quote, send the pipe size, product (and viscosity or temperature if known), and ideally a photo. Size, grade and build are confirmed at quotation. WhatsApp +60 12-211 2522.

Typical gauss ranges

Rare-earth separator designs we commonly quote for Malaysian plants sit around 10,000–13,000 gauss at the tube or pole face (application-dependent). Ceramic/ferrite options exist for coarser tramp metal at lower field — we will recommend based on contaminant and flow.
