Permanent Sheet Fanners
Our standard permanent and electromagnetic Sheet Fanners and Separators are designed to separate steel sheet stock.
OVERVIEW
As sheets are placed against the sheet fanner, the powerful magnetic field automatically forces the sheets apart and separates them from one another. Manually prying apart sticky, oily sheets is no longer necessary and die damaging double blanking problems are eliminated.
The flexible mounting design gives you more options to match your application needs. Use the handle and base plate for portable applications or use the 3/8-16 tapped holes to bolt the fanner to your equipment or tooling.
Note: Choose a fanner with a height 2-3 inches taller than your maximum stack height.
Typical Magnetic Sheet Separator Installations: For best results, locate the magnetic fanner at the corner(s) of large sheets and in the center of the width of length on smaller sheets. Fanners placed opposite each other on small sheets will actually float the sheet.
Benefits
- 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
