FANNERS MAGNETIC SHEET FANNERS-1

MAGNETIC SHEET FANNERS Permanent Fanner Magnetically Separate Oily, Sticky or Thin Steel Sheets Permanent and Electromagnetic Sheet Fanners: » » » » » Reduce costs & increase safety for destacking steel sheet stock A powerful magnetic field automatically separates sheets As the top sheet is removed, the next sheet instantly fans up Prevents prying apart sticky, oily, pre-finished or polished sheets Eliminates die-damaging double blanking in automated operations Permanent Magnetic Sheet Fanners: Permanent Magnetic Fanners handle steel sheets of almost any length, width or shape. The sheets near the top of the stack separate instantly from a 3/4” to 1-1/2” gap, depending on sheet thickness and size. » Three powerful designs for optimum fanning performance (based on sheet thickness) » Pre-tapped holes for mounting to your equipment » Bolt on angle base plate and handle with mounting hardware included » Durable welded construction Sheet Seeker® SheetSeeker® - Ergonomic Permanent Magnetic Fanners: IMI’s SheetSeeker® is a breakthrough in magnetic sheet fanner technology. The magnetic circuit is lifted and locked into place for introduction to a stack of sheet steel. Once the stack is in place, the sliding magnet is unlocked and automatically centers on the top of the stack, fanning the sheet stock. As each sheet is lifted away, the magnet indexes down automatically, fanning to the bottom of the stack. Magnetic PinFanners™ - Permanent Magnetic Fanners: Use pallet mount Permanent Magnetic PinFanners™ with Hex, Round or T-Slot Pallet Pins in Stacking/ Destacking, Blanking Lines and Press Feeding applications. PinFanners™ can be used to separate curved edge or odd shaped blanks. PinFanners™ stay right on the pallet, from the blanking line to the press, without any extra set up! Adjustable magnet positions ensure direct contact with the blank for maximum fanning ability. Mounted directly to the pallet, PinFanners™ reduce maintenance down time on blanking lines. Electromagnetic Sheet Fanners The on/off capability of Electromagnetic Sheet Fanners provides operator safety during steel blank stacking and unbanding. In automated presses, the electromagnetic fanners can be controlled to operate simultaneously with other destacking equipment. Electromagnetic Sheet Fanners require special IMI power supplies that can provide for operation of single or multiple fanners. These power supplies (see Tech Sheet AG-10B) can be equipped with a variable output to adjust the magnetic strength to handle a variety of metal thicknesses. » Safe and easy set-up with fanner turned off » One size unit can handle a variety of metal thicknesses » Ideal for automated presses Electromagnetic Fanner Industrial Magnetics Inc. 1385 M-75 S, Boyne City, MI 49712 » Office: 1.231.582.3100 Office: 1.231.582.3100
