Uses for our rare earth block magnets:

Neodymium block magnets with these dimensions are powerful enough to cause considerable injury and should be handled with caution at all times. Powerful Neodymium blocks of this size have many commercial uses in metal detection and separation. Important systems that use strong Neodymium block magnets are employed by the manufacturing and recycling industries to keep their products free of contaminants and to separate ferrous waste from recyclable materials.
Agriculture processing plants require stringent monitoring of raw materials to prevent contamination. Strong Rare Earth magnets arranged in an assembly are used to reliably remove impurities during the refining process and the production of foodstuffs. This important practice helps to protect the health of the consumer and the reputation of other manufacturers that use their product down the line. It also prevents damage to equipment that isn’t designed to process ferrous impurities.

Neodymium magnets are favoured for their unparalleled magnetic strength in these situations but other types of magnetic material, including Ceramic magnets which provide a wider magnetic field, also have a role to play.
Magnetic separation is an important tool in many industrial processes worldwide and has proved to be an effective solution to the many problems encountered in the production of safe, clean food for growing populations.
