EG2430 - Degaussing of Small Parts
25.07.2008
Degaussing of small parts forwarded with conductor bars
Work pieces are quite often forwarded from one machining centre to another by conductor bars. If these pieces have been magnetized during pre-machining, there will be problems caused with adhesion, clutching, false orientation, and others during material flow, or at the next stage of production.
Vallon offers a solution with its degaussing system EG2430 which is controlled by the machine cycle and continuously performs partial degaussing; this procedure allows an uninterrupted material flow.
This system has been designed for a versatile range of automatic production lines, incorporating the following options:
- Manual activation of an individual degaussing impulse package
- Automatic recurrent (periodic) activation of the degaussing impulse package, with regulation of cycle rate and cycle duration, in synchronization with the transport conveyor or the machine cycle.
- External activation of the degaussing impulse package by a control signal from the machine centre with adjustable duration.
- Adjustable properties of the impulse package, as for example rising edge, voltage, descending length, basic frequency and others
The generator EG2430 supplies the required current to a degaussing coil or degaussing yoke which is mounted to a conductor; and which performs synchronised degaussing in an area of approx. 10 cm.
