For Immediate Release: Free Plant Audit for Metal Conveying Applications
Posted On 4/21/2010 By Industrial Magnetics, Inc.
IMI is currently offering a "Free Plant Audit" and "Free
R&D" to companies interested in finding out how Magnetic
Conveying Rail and Magnetic Transfer Conveyors can
increase their productivity when conveying and
transferring metal parts, sheets, containers, cans or lids.
The company offers Magnetic Conveying Rail which holds
metal firmly in place during vertical, inclined or
horizontal conveying applications, eliminating the
slipping or rolling of parts and thereby allowing
increased conveying speeds for higher productivity.
Additional benefits include better utilization of space
within a facility, noise reduction, correct part
orientation, and on-time material flow.
Their Magnetic Transfer Conveyors are often used to
eliminate laborious hand feeding and are designed for
automated metal sheet handling systems in a variety of
industries, such as Automotive, Office Furniture and
Appliance, and include common applications such as
stacking, destacking, press feeding and moving parts from
one station to another.
IMI’s Magnetic Electro-Rail is also commonly used in
automated systems for conveying, transferring and lifting
steel sheets and parts. Utilizing a powerful electro-
magnetic circuit to move and hold steel objects during
conveying, electromagnets have the benefit of on/off
capability and allow the user to control drop points
throughout the system.
In addition to their Free Plant Audit, IMI also offers
free R&D at their onsite facility, complete with
quantifiable result documentation and product
recommendations. Their comprehensive test facility
includes a Magnetic Conveying Rail Test Fixture that is
capable of replicating from 0 - 355 ft/min velocities, up
to a 90 degree incline, 48" outside radius curve and 360°
of adjustment for overhead rail applications.
To request additional details on their Free Plant Audit
or Free R&D program, please contact IMI at 231.582.3100,
800.662.4638 or email imi@magnetics.com
