Magnet Validations & Risk Assessments

The acquisition allows us to be more efficient and deliver better value direct to our valued clients in the New Zealand market.

Magnattack Global recently assisted one of our US pet food clients with new magnetic separators as part of a corrective action plan to rectify the areas of risk identified in a magnet validation report.

RE80®HT Emulsion & Slurry Pipeline Separators Prove Effective For Pet Food Manufacturer

It would be ideal if 100% magnetic separation could be guaranteed but, although aimed for, unfortunately, there are several reasons why this is practically not feasible. We unpack these reasons in this article.

A mustard processing company in Wisconsin USA recently reached out to AMR Consulting and Magnattack Global to validate their magnetic separation equipment, and to help them increase their metal fragment control and food safety.

Like metal detectors and various other food processing equipment, it is important that magnetic separators are tested regularly to determine if they are effective and providing adequate foreign metal fragment control. Which test is most effective - pull test or gauss test?

Magnets should be tested yearly in accordance with a HACCP International program and the current 0909MAGSEP 1-2010 Food Safety Standard to ensure they are within specification and, if identified, any causes of demagnetization or damage to the magnet are flagged and can then be corrected.
