Plastics Processing · Magnet & Metal Separation Technology

Protect your material from metal contamination

Remove iron and metal particles from plastic material with TX-FF drawer magnetic separators and FFS/LCS metal separators. Up to 10,000 gauss of neodymium pull force — protect your screw, nozzle and mold.

Why Magnets & Metal Separation?

A single metal particle can halt production

Iron and metal particles mixed into plastic material damage screws, nozzles, valves and hot-runner molds, causing blockages and production loss. Magnetic separators capture iron particles; electronic metal separators detect and automatically reject ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Mounted at the hopper, dryer or machine neck, they provide final-stage control.

  • Protects screw, nozzle and mold from metal damage
  • Detects and separates ferrous + non-ferrous metals
  • Mounts at hopper, dryer or machine neck
