Metal Emergency? 630-994-3310
Magnattack recently supplied a Bullnose Plate Magnet System to a Californian winery in the Central Valley wine region, to collect the metal passing through the grape incline process and prevent extensive damage to the pumps. Winery pumps can be very costly to repair or replace. This magnetic separator installation will save money on pump repairs/replacements […]
Kevin Baker INTRODUCTION THIS WHITE PAPER IS TO SERVE TO ASSIST FOOD MANUFACTURERS AND FOOD SAFETY PERSONELLE TO UNDERSTAND WHAT IS IN THE CURRENT 0909MAGSEP 1-2010 STANDARD, HOW IT AFFECTS FINAL MAGNETS, AND WHAT STEPS MUST BE TAKEN TO ENSURE FINAL MAGNETS IN FOOD PROCESSING STREAMS ARE ADEQUATE AND IN LINE WITH THE ABOVEMENTIONED STANDARD […]
The U.S Food and Drug Administration (FDA) largely focuses on combating heavy metals – not because they don’t like Iron Maiden – but because metallic particles in food products are a serious safety hazard to consumers. In fact, the regulations began over half a century ago, when the FDA created the Total Diet Study (TDS), […]
You’ve most likely heard the old adage, “nothing lasts forever,” and unfortunately, this reigns true for your magnetic separation equipment. Eventually, your magnets lose their strength, and you’ll need assessments to validate the performance of your equipment. However, the intricacies behind magnet testing can be confusing, and you probably have a few questions, like: Food […]

Drawer magnets have been used for a long period of time and are common in gravity feed applications. Like most magnets, they must be manually cleaned frequently by operators to maintain separation efficiency. Three aspects of poor design can lead to serious issues in product security: 1. Unhygienic Magnet Design Dead zones within the product […]
The question is often asked, “Which factors should I consider and what potential problems should I be looking out for when selecting magnets for dairy processing applications?” When it comes to dairy processing, there are multiple magnetic separation options. When dealing with such a sensitive product application, it is crucial to make a well-informed decision […]
If you work with or around magnetic separation equipment, you may already know the safety protocols that must be followed. But did you know that you should keep your electronic devices away from magnets? Magnetic fields can impact your device by stripping away the device’s programming and erasing stored information. […]
There are several things to consider when selecting magnets for milling applications. Different magnet designs suit different locations and product types, so it is very important to choose the magnetic separator most suited to the application. Some important things to consider when choosing a magnet for a milling application: The nature of the product – […]
Handling magnets can be risky. There are many hazards that come along with the task: pinching, dropping, heavy lifting, and many others. That is why it is crucial to consider the environment you are working in and the type of magnet you are working with. As certain magnets need to be manually handled in order […]
