The fail-safe sheet separator recently developed by Goudsmit Magnetics provides automatic separation of steel sheets up to a thickness of approximately 4 mm. The separator is equipped with very powerful neodymium magnets and can be switched on and off pneumatically using a new patented system.
This switching is done quickly by rotation of the magnets. The maintenance-free sheet separator is the only one of its kind with a spring-actuated off position. The extremely safe hence the name fail-safe sheet separator automatically switches to the off position even if the compressed air supply is interrupted.
This provides extra safety. In contrast to fixed sheet separators, switchable sheet separators also allow interim changeover of products during a set process. It is possible to separate steel sheets of almost any shape, length or width. Even round and asymmetrical shapes. The permanent magnetic force does not degrade and is guaranteed for decades.
