Automated Magnetic Separation systemsSugar Industry

Industry RequirementsProduction Pressures:With greater pressure being applied to already stressed production systems, there has neverbeen a greater need to eliminate manual processes or manually operated equipment.

With hourly production rates topping 100t, manufacturers are at an increasing risk of machinery failure and a contamination incident occurring.

A number of large sugar producers in Europe have already benefited from incorporating Eclipse Magnetics intelligent self cleaning magnetic separation technology.

In some instances payback has been as short as 2 months.

Auto-Shuttle SystemsTechnology Overview:Eclipse Auto-Shuttle systems offer unsurpassed levels of contamination removal. Systems are often supplied with three or four magnetic rows providing maximum contaminant capture by ensuring multiple rows are in the product flow during cleaning. This means no stopping production.

Supplied complete with a pre programmed On-board PLC, the system can be set to clean at regular intervals, on command or as a slave to the central control room, providing time stamped reporting of cleaning cycles for quality reporting.

BenefitsFood Safety:Manual inspection of prevention equipment can pose a significant food safety risk through unintended contamination. This risk can be eliminated with the use of Eclipse Auto-Shuttle.

Operator Safety:Bulk magnetic grid systems often weigh more than WHS manual handling limits but, require regular cleaning. Auto-Shuttle systems eliminate manual handling altogether so protect workers from potential manual handling injuries and the business from lost work hours and injury claims.

Continuous Processing:The Eclipse Auto-Shuttle system does not require any manual intervention or line stoppage for cleaning. Continual processing can be achieved saving tens of thousands of dollars per year.

Remote Monitoring:With an on-board PLC system, Eclipse Auto-Shuttle can be linked back and controlled by the central control room. This allows an accurate cleaning log to be automatically maintained for future use, should an audit or contamination incident arise.
