Custom Magnetic Solutions for Unique Applications

Not all processes fit standard equipment. Techco Power Engineering designs and manufactures special magnets tailored to your product, line geometry and safety constraints. From orienting cans on high-speed conveyors to magnetically filtering oils and coolants, our engineering team specifies the magnetic circuit, mechanical build and integration details needed for reliable, repeatable performance.

We support food-grade (HACCP-aligned), industrial and automotive environments with polished stainless builds, pressure-rated housings, and audit-ready documentation.

Special Magnet Categories

Can Turning Magnets

Orient cans/jars on conveyors (invert or upright) for washing, filling and mixing without mechanical damage.

  • Food & beverage lines; gentle handling at speed
  • Custom footprints for existing conveyors
  • Adjustable magnet arrays for product size range

Car Door Alignment Magnets

Square, high-hold fixtures that align doors to body shells during assembly and panel repair.

  • Robust 3CR12 magnetic stainless construction
  • Repeatable alignment; safer hinge adjustment
  • Workshop & OEM assembly compatible

Magnetic Filters

Inline filtration for liquids/slurries and lubricants—remove ferrous fines to protect gearboxes, hydraulics and boilers.

  • Sump plug magnets, inline fuel/hydraulic filters
  • Water treatment: magnetic scale/particle capture
  • Pressure-tested housings with food-grade seals (where required)

Cascade Magnets

Multi-door designs for coarse or bridge-prone products; manual or automated clean down.

  • 2–10 doors; deep-reach fields (≈1,500–11,000 gauss)
  • Discharge splitter for safe, fast cleaning
  • Food-grade polish; flange sets to fit your spouting

Magnetic Palletizers

Lift full layers of steel cans/steel-top jars for rapid palletising or depalletising with zero product damage.

  • Permanent magnet plates with even field distribution
  • Pneumatic/electric actuation for ON/OFF cycle
  • Custom heads to product diameter/height

Teardrop Tube Magnets

Anti-bridging profile for fine powders; pointed leading edge diverts flow over high-intensity zone.

  • Multiple bars in frames to cover large chutes
  • Food-grade stainless; tapped end caps
  • ≈5,000–11,000 gauss options

Wedge Magnets

Square/rectangular inserts for narrow chutes—long-reach field with strong holding power.

  • Access panels for quick clean down
  • HACCP-aligned coverage targets (food lines)
  • Built to size for tight spaces

Magnetic Coolant Cleaners

Continuously remove ferrous fines from machining coolants to extend tool life and improve finishes.

  • Drum-type extraction; clean coolant recirculation
  • Stainless construction; ready-to-run modules
  • ≈1,500–12,000 gauss; certificates supplied

Engineering & Compliance

  • Custom sizing: built to your chute, conveyor, pallet or fluid line geometry.
  • Materials: food-grade stainless steel (polished); 3CR12/304/316 options per duty.
  • Performance: application-tuned magnetic circuits; documented gauss verification.
  • Clean-down: manual, easy-clean or automated (pneumatic/electric) designs.
  • Compliance: HACCP-aligned for food applications; ISO-driven QA with traceability.
  • Integration: flanges, clamps, actuators, sensors and control I/O on request.

Share your product, throughput, particle size, temperature and target contaminants—our engineers will model field strength, pole geometry and clean-down method for you.

Special Magnets — FAQs

What do you need to quote a custom magnet?

Layout drawings/photos, product type, flow rate, particle size, temperature, pressure (if any), target metal types and line constraints (space, hygiene, clean-down windows).

Can you automate clean-down?

Yes—most designs can be specified with pneumatic or electric actuators, position sensors and interlocks for safe automatic cleaning.

Do you supply documentation?

Yes—material certificates, gauss verification and a documentation pack suitable for audits. Validation support available.
