Superior Contaminant Control for Grain, Milling & Seed Processing
In grain, milling, and seed processing, purity, safety, and efficiency are essential. Magnattack® magnetic separators are specifically engineered to tackle the challenges of these industries, delivering reliable metal contaminant control, regulatory compliance, and optimized operation.
Magnattack high-intensity magnetic separators capture and remove fine metal contaminants, such as tramp iron, stainless steel, and ferrous particles, protecting product safety, quality, and equipment functionality. Built from high-strength magnetic materials and food-grade stainless steel, our durable, corrosion-resistant separators meet FDA and HACCP standards, supporting regulatory compliance and ensuring product integrity.
Magnetic separation systems are widely used in milling, grain and seed applications for several key reasons, including the removal of tramp and large metal pieces, prevention of dust explosions caused by metal entering high-impact machinery, protection against damage to high-impact equipment, and increasing product purity and quality. Commonly used magnets in these applications include the Mag-Ram® Self-Cleaning Magnet, Rapidclean® Drawer Magnet, Spherical Inline Pneumatic Transfer Magnet, and various types of Plate Magnets offered by Magnattack.
Optimized for high-volume applications, these separators maintain efficient contaminant control with minimal impact on product flow, reducing equipment wear and maximizing productivity.
With decades of experience and trusted partnerships in grain, milling, and seed processing, Magnattack offers reliable, tailored solutions to enhance product quality, safety, and operational efficiency. Choose Magnattack for effective magnetic separation in your industry.

Mag-Ram® Automatic Self-Cleaning Magnet
This self-cleaning sanitary grate magnet is designed for installation at hopper outlets, in hard-to-reach areas needing magnetic separation, or where magnet cleaning is required at predetermined intervals. This product carries a USDA acceptance certification and is available in a USDA Dairy accepted sanitary model.
Rapidclean® Drawer Magnet
Features a sanitary, dust-tight design, with cleaning performed outside of the product flow. Ideal for compact spaces, it efficiently removes weak materials such as work-hardened stainless steel and ferrous tramp metal using large-diameter bars that reach over 10,000 gauss. This product carries a USDA acceptance certification and is available in a USDA Dairy accepted sanitary model.
Round Pipe Separator
The Round Pipe Separator is designed to capture weakly magnetic contaminants from powder and dry product processing lines, enhancing product purity and protecting against foreign contamination risks. With a powerful +11,000 gauss RE80 magnet element concentrated at the base, it prevents magnetic fragments from bypassing the separator, ensuring maximum effectiveness. Available in bellied and straight-tube models, it offers features such as easy cleaning, high product-to-magnet coverage, and CIP compatibility. This product carries a USDA acceptance certification and is available in a USDA Dairy accepted sanitary model.
Probe Magnets
Our high-intensity magnetic probes are perfect for inspecting incoming ingredients from suppliers and serve as indicator magnets for detecting metal contamination in food products. They can function as standalone units or be integrated into full magnetic separation systems, with installation kits available for easy setup in pipelines.
Lab Test Magnets
Magnattack® Lab Test Magnets, with magnetic strength of over 11,000 gauss, detect weakly magnetic materials, stainless steel fragments, and magnetic stones in both dry and wet food products. Available in Mini and Standard sizes, they identify contaminants rejected by metal detectors, improve efficiency and reduce contamination risks. These magnets are ideal for sample testing and can withstand temperatures up to 302°F (150°F).
Spherical Inline Pneumatic Transfer Magnet
This advanced magnetic separator features a powerful RE80® magnet exceeding 11,000 gauss, efficiently capturing weak magnetic fragments in high-velocity pneumatic transfer lines. Its large surface area on the back of the sphere keeps metal fragments retained and out of the product zone. Available in a dairy-grade, sanitary design.
Plate Magnets
A wide-range of high-strength plate and chute magnets are available that are designed to protect mills, grinders, extruders, and other equipment from metal contamination. Featuring unique RE80® rare earth magnets, the plate magnets can be customized for various applications, including the innovative Bullnose/Round Nose and Dimple-Mag® Plate Magnets. These advanced designs provide superior metal extraction, enhance food safety, and reduce contamination risks in fast-flowing product streams.
Grate and Grid Magnets
Grate & Grid Magnets remove magnetic fragments from hoppers, chutes, ducts, and packing outlets. The grid or grate design enables the product to pass through powerful magnetic bars, while magnetic contamination is pulled underneath and securely held until the magnet is cleaned. Available in a dairy-grade, sanitary design.
Separation Shafts
The Separation Shafts are designed to maximize product-to-magnet contact, efficiently removing stainless steel splinters, magnetic stone fragments, and over 98% of tramp iron and ferrous fines from products.
Mag-Stride® Magnetic Mats
The magnetic mat stops the transfer of ferrous metal fragments in sensitive processing and workshop areas at both entry and exit points. Easy to install and clean, it offers an additional layer of safety for every plant or manufacturing space.Talk to an Expert
