OVERVIEW
Mastering Tramp Metal Separation
How to Protect Equipment and Product Quality from Metal Contamination.
Metal contamination puts your equipment, product quality, and bottom line at risk. Industrial Magnetics identifies critical points in your process and engineers magnetic solutions to remove contamination where it matters most.
Light Duty vs. Heavy Duty Tramp Metal
Not all metal contamination presents the same challenge. Process conditions and understanding equipment risk help us determine the type of magnet, level of strength, and placement that you will need.
How Do You Remove Light Duty Tramp Metal from Your Process?
- Light-duty tramp metal refers to small contaminants like staples, nails, bolts, and fines that often hide in dry materials, liquid lines, or pneumatic conveying systems.
- Light-duty tramp can bypass standard filters, leading to product recalls or damage to sensitive downstream equipment like extruders and high-speed mixers.

How Do You Remove Heavy Duty Tramp Metal in High-Impact Environments?
- In industries like mining, recycling, and aggregate, the tramp metal is often massive, think bucket teeth, rebar, or large tools.
- These heavy objects can cause catastrophic failure in crushers, conveyor belts, and shredders, leading to thousands of dollars in downtime.
