Magnetics Drive Efficiency in Steel Processing

A Range of Magnetic Solutions for the Steel Industry

As a 100-year-old company based in Sheffield, the home of steel, it is no surprise we are heavily involved in the steel industry, supplying a number of magnetic products which provide process efficiencies.

We supply process enhancing solutions for steel production processes in rolling mills, forges, proof machining, surface treatment, NDT and for leading steel stockholders. Our client base includes leading names such as Tata Steel, Vallourec, Celsa, Steel UK, United Cast Bar Group, Barrett Steel, Firth Rixson, Sheffield Forgemasters, ESS Steels and Abbey Forged Products.

With our knowledge of steel industries, we can offer the right product from our portfolio for the application, providing problem solving qualities and offering a rapid return on investment.

Magnetic Filtration Systems Remove Ferrous Particles

Our magnetic filtration systems are widely used in processes such as steel rolling, quenching , tube forming and cutting, surface treatment, spray bars, steel sawing, steel threading, roller lubrication and wash systems. Our filtration systems remove high volumes of both coarse and fine ferrous particles from fluids such as oils, wash solutions, coolants and water, thereby ensuring the quality and surface finish of the steel are not compromised by ferrous contamination.

In addition, our magnetic filtration systems save money by extending the lifespan of fluids and reducing man hours spent on operations such as cleaning out holding tanks and blocked pipework.

Magnetic Chucks for Steel Holding and Clamping

Precision, repeated accuracy is provided by our range of workholding products. Our magnetic chucks are widely used for clamping of bar or steel plate components during milling, grinding, cutting or drilling applications.

Magnetic Tools for Everyday Steel Processing Challenges

Our range of magnetic tools aid speed and efficiency in steel producing environments. Simple solutions like swarf collection wands, ferrous collection sweepers, magnetic sheet separators, magnetic trays and tool racks, and retrieval tools enable an easier working day.

We also have a range of magnetic welding aids and DTI bases which provide fast and effective mounting and clamping for a steel fabrication, precision measurement and inspection applications.
