Magnetic chutes are used for trapping and separating iron particles mixed with dry, granular or powdered materials in industries such as

* Plastics
* Food colors
* Spices
* Chemicals
* Dyes & Powder Pigments

Working

Magnetic chute is placed in the flow path of the materials passing through the ducts, with help of flanges. As the material flows through the chute, the iron contamination gets attracted on the magnetic surface and the non magnetic material flows out of it without any disturbance. The chutes are generally placed vertically on the discharge ducts. However if required it can also be placed horizontally between the material flow lines.
