Bunting HF Series Drawer Magnets

Powerful magnetic separation suitable for mechanical and gravity flow applications in all industries.

HF Series Drawer Magnets are equipped with high-power magnetic cartridges, configured with arrangements of two or more cartridge trays that are staggered to increase contact with the product stream. Material moves in a zig-zag pattern from one cartridge tray to the next, achieving exceptionally thorough cleaning as a result of intense magnetic separation. HF Series Drawer Magnets are available in utility, food, and sanitary constructions with multiple cleaning options and stainless-steel housings. We are able to supply custom transitions to match your round, square, or rectangular spouting.

HF Series Drawer Magnets come standard with our NUHI™ Neo Ultra High Intensity Cartridge Magnet. These cartridges have been completely redesigned from the ground up in order to address new processing challenges manufacturers are taking. Bunting’s NUHI™ cartridge is nearly 20% stronger and delivers 50% more reach out than our previous cartridge design. This new design comes at no sacrifice to durability and quality—we are able to deliver improved power while maintaining our reputation for durable, long-lasting products that withstand the test of time. Our NUHI™ cartridge magnets amplify the performance of Bunting magnetic separation equipment, providing our customers with a higher standard of tramp metal removal.

HF Series Drawer Magnets are available in Manual Standard, Manual Self-Cleaning, Pneumatic Self-Cleaning, and Pneumatic Continuous Self-Cleaning models.

Bunting In-Line Magnets

In-Line Magnets for Gravity or Pneumatic Systems

Bunting’s in-line magnets offer effective, high strength magnetic separation that is easy to install and integrate with your existing systems. Bunting’s design has no maintenance required aside from cleaning the ferrous metal contamination it captures. The design of Bunting’s in-line magnetic separation equipment features full-flow architecture that leaves the product stream unobstructed. In-line magnets are suitable for a diverse range of industries, including food, grain and milling, powder and bulk, plastics, and recycling.

Pneumatic In-line Magnets (PIM) - Pneumatic in-line magnets are built for use in dilute phase pneumatic conveying systems. They can be installed easily with optional factory-supplied compression couplings and, work best in horizontal runs with the plate magnet down to take advantage of material stratification. Pneumatic in-line magnets feature full-flow architecture to allow an unobstructed product stream.

Center-Flow In-Line Magnets (CFM) - Center-flow in-line magnetic separators are engineered to remove ferrous fine particles and larger pieces of tramp iron from dry particulates as they travel through dilute-phase pneumatic conveying lines. To achieve optimum contact with the product flow, a conical magnet is suspended in the centerline of the housing. This tapered, exposed-pole cartridge has a stainless steel “nose cone” to direct the flow of materials around the magnet. The magnet’s tapered poles allow ferrous fine particles to collect out of the direct air stream. Additionally, the trailing end of the magnet is an active pole which will collect any tramp metal that gets swept down the cartridge.

Gravity In-Line Magnets (GIM) - Gravity In-Line Magnets allow you to utilize our powerful plate magnets in round, sloping spouting where materials is under gravity flow. For effective tramp capture, spouting should be angled no more than 60° from horizontal.

Rapid Raptor Shredder - "Open-Hearted Power"

Recycle all plastic!
Open-Hearted technology
New rotor design – impact protection
QuadCUT™ – Patented unique knife design
Customizable tilt back hopper

The Rapid RAPTOR shredders are unique in many ways. They are designed for all types of plastics, large 1200 lit IBC containers or heavy lumps, all are efficiently recycled.

The new patented Rapid QuadCUT™ knife design offers four true cutting edges per knife in a solid piece which makes the knives the toughest you can get. The knives are clamped in a rock solid design, including a shock absorber to protect the rotor from being destroyed in a sudden impact from any metal etc. that accidentally have entered the cutter house.

The shredders come in two widths, 800 and 1350 mm. The standard version comes with FlexiPUSH (pneumatic pusher). For voluminous light weight goods, a TopPUSH (pneumatic) can be added. In case extra power is needed the PowerPUSH version (hydraulic pusher) is recommended.

The DeDuster® - The Ultimate Cleaning Technology

Where Do Fines Come from and Why Is Cleaning So Important?

Some dust and contaminants occur naturally in products like minerals, food, tablets and other bulk solids, while others are caused by the way the products are handled. Impurities in plastic pellets, both fines (dust) and angel hair (streamers), are generated by the friction in conveying lines. Dilute phase systems create large amounts of dust and streamers, the higher the velocity, the larger the amount of impurities. Pipe elbows also cause friction and result in the creation of more dust and streamers. The high pressure in dense phase, or slow-motion systems, creates very fine dust due to wall friction and friction between pellets. Temperature, pellet shape and product characteristics can also contribute to the creation of dust.

Cleaning bulk solids is important for several reasons. Food and pharmaceutical bulk solids are cleaned for hygienic reasons and to improve the quality of the finished, packaged product. Minerals are cleaned primarily to avoid environmental and health problems. The plastics industry cleans pellets to improve the quality of both the pellets and the finished plastic product.
