magnetic floor sweepers are a solution for removing metal debris and fasteners from shop floors and various other indoor and outdoor surfaces. We design and configure our floor sweepers for your specific application to offer performance and versatility for various industries and terrains.
Magnetic nail sweepers are a type of magnetic sweeper used to quickly pick up metal objects such as nails or screws. Magnetic nail sweepers work well in a variety of environments, including shop floors and even grass. They are essential for easily and safely clearing environments of metal debris without having to bend over.
Magnets are objects or materials that attract or repel other magnets through a force known as magnetism. Available in several shapes, sizes, and strengths, magnets are an essential component of everything from MRI machines to magnetic pick-up tools and sweepers.
Magnetic brooms are a type of multipurpose tool that collects ferrous metals. Some of the debris they collect includes nails, washers, screws, and nuts from garages, floors, and walkways, among other areas. Magnetic brooms offer an efficient way to clean up a variety of environments, and they come in different types, depending on the job.
To select the right type of heavy-duty magnetic sweeper, it’s important to understand the specifications to look for and their benefits for various applications.
There are many ways that magnetic power can be measured (Gauss, Tesla, Holding Force, Pickup Height) and these metrics are useful for assessing the power of magnets comparatively. However, none of these metrics are perfectly applicable to real world conditions that you will use a magnetic sweeper in because they fail to factor speed into the equation. Therefore, we developed a methodology of testing magnetic sweepers at speed
Industrial magnets play a vital role in numerous systems and operations. While these magnetic devices rely on the same principles as the ones used for residential purposes (e.g., sticking items to a refrigerator), they generally have more specific requirements and restrictions regarding composition, type, size, and strength, depending on the intended use.
In airfields, FOD poses a significant safety risk to aircraft and personnel. Below, we discuss what FOD is, how to prevent it using sweepers and other methods, and what types of FOD sweepers are available.
There are a lot of “flat surface” magnet sweepers on the market, in fact almost all other competitor magnetic sweepers are flat surface sweepers whether they market them as “all surface” sweepers or not,
To understand a magnet’s pickup power to compare magnets you need to know how the magnetic pickup power and performance is being measured. Pickup power is a very difficult thing to explain or for a potential buyer to ask about and still have it mean anything.
The Ripwhirl design stems from the problems that were plaguing other standard design magnetic sweepers. Those problems were;
Rare earth magnets versus ceramic magnets – While there are many different types of magnets, two of the most popular man-made magnets are ceramic magnets and neodymium magnets.
Bluestreak Equipment Painting Process is used on the Piranha, Aardvark, Rhino, and the HOG series of magnetic sweepers. Parts are blasted with Kerfjet #80 Garnet Stone and then…
We hope this Cost Saving Analysis will shed some light on the flat tire cost issues and help you do your own analysis of tire repair costs and choosing the best solutions for you organization.
We get asked sometimes “what grade are your magnets” or “can you tell me the field or flux density of your magnetic products”. In other words…
Bluestreak’s Quick Clean Off Sleeve is the superior clean off method compared with auto-release toe plate designs because…
Seriously consider how you are going to adjust, clean off and otherwise use the magnetic sweeper. Try and visualize yourself using the magnetic sweeper in your situation. Are you going to need a certain sweeping height…
Comparing magnetic sweeper magnets – If you’re buying a magnetic tool, it probably has permanent magnets inside, either ceramic or rare earth. Rare earth magnets will always have a stronger magnetic field than ceramic.
If you’re planning on using your magnetic sweeper in grass, consider the ability of different sweeper options to deal with “wipe off”. “Wipe off” occurs when grass or weeds brush the bottom of the sweeper and the debris attached to it…
Common problems when comparing “housing” sizes. – Be careful when comparing magnetic sweepers by housing width and depth. The housing is the part…
How is “lifting power” measured? – There is no standard for measuring “lifting power” for magnetic sweepers. Some manufacturers use pounds of nails, some use pounds of a…
Get the facts on “lifting power” versus “lifting height” for magnetic sweepers – Manufacturers often measure a magnet’s “lifting power” in pounds of solid steel. This lifting..
Some of our sweepers are designed with a “Wrap around” feature specifically to deal with the problem of debris being pushed off of the magnet by grass. If debris gets pushed backward, it simply…
