IMT’s unique VIBRA-SEP magnetic plate design allows operations to easily retrofit a tramp metal separation solution without any modification to the existing conveying system.
The VIBRA-SEP is available for all vibratory conveyor widths, with 18″ and 24″ units in stock. Installation takes minutes, all hardware is provided and no welding is required.
Installation Configuration
Installing the VIBRA-SEP in vibratory conveyors and feeders is an effective means of capturing tramp metal contaminants. Positioning this magnetic plate separator before metal detection systems reduces nuisance trips which create costly down time and labor costs associated with metal detection systems.
The VIBRA-SEP is a one component magnetic plate separator consisting of a large re-engineered, more powerful permanent magnetic core. The stainless-steel construction provides processing facilities with a separation system that will provide years of dependable maintenance free operation.
In the production of wood chips, the Vibra-Sep is installed ahead of the metal detector. The Vibra-Sep removes tramp metal thereby reducing nuisance trips and increasing uptime. The Vibra-Sep also extracts smaller ferrous particles which the metal detector may not detect thus increasing chipper knife life (less pins and fines).
Simple installation is accomplished in minutes by bolting the leading edge and trailing edge with included hardware.
Removal of the captured tramp metal is done by simply sliding the captured contaminates off the face of the trailing edge.
Increased uptime, reduce maintenance costs and a metal free product.
