CESCO™ releases the newest easy to clean duct-grate unlike any other ever produced!  There are no replacement “wipers” and this is not a tube-in-tube design that substantially reduces the magnetic strength.  Instead, this unit works by first releasing the side latches, then pulling the handle to remove the tubes out of the product stream and into the cleaning area.  A second pull on the handle removes the magnets from the tubes allowing all the collected trash to fall freely outside the product stream and into a waste container.  To recharge the system, simply push the handle to return the magnets to the tubes and the tubes into the duct housing.  The latches are then clamped to prevent accidentally pulling the magnets from the active product flow.  Simple, safe and effective was the concept and the end result of this new grate design.  These units are custom made to your specifications and allow an easy to clean operation unrealized in the industry.  For more information on this or any of the custom products produced by CESCO™, please call toll-free at 1-877-624-8727.

CESCO™ introduces magnetic line traps or separators that increase the trash capture range 263 percent over industry-standard units.

These compact, but super-powerful, ultra magnetic, filtration units are designed to remove ferrous and work-hardened stainless steel micro-particulates as small as 0.0001 inches from liquids, purees and slurries.

The CESCO Magnetics certified sanitary, all-stainless, in-line magnetic separators are engineered to exceed USDA AMS NSF/ANSI/3-A 14159-1 2002 specifications. Powerful circuits of rare earth Neodymium magnet cores, encapsulated in seamless stainless steel cartridges, more than double the industry-standard capture range for magnetic in-line separators. This proprietary design was originally engineered for a flavorings processor, but it has proven itself ideal for applications such as cosmetics, micro-brewing, and pharmaceuticals where quality and taste are paramount.

See’s Candies chooses CESCO™ magnetic separators to ensure quality

Since its founding eighty-five years ago in Los Angeles, See’s Candies has built its brand on quality and customer loyalty. Every cream, nougat, fruit or nut center, whether simple or elegant are all wonderful. It’s really the carefully tempered, slow roasted chocolate that is creamy, rich in color, with a glossy sheen and a chocolaty aroma that delivers the ‘decadent taste” that See’s loyalists crave.

See’s does not process cocoa beans into chocolate itself, but the company has created a demanding set of specifications for blending African, Indonesian and South American beans that it purchases from only the few suppliers that can meet those standards. The proprietary blend of beans is roasted, winnowed and conched then both solid and liquid chocolates are tempered in its own kitchens. The tempering process, where chocolate is heated slowly then slowly cooled, is a tricky and involved process, but it is one of the most important steps in creating the high quality chocolate coating that loyal customers have come to expect.

See’s takes a number of additional quality control steps as part of its GMP including the employment of CESCO rare earth magnet separators or traps at different stages in the manufacturing and packaging processes. The magnets remove any tramp metal that might have sheared during mixing, blending, pumping or tempering the chocolate.

See’s installed water-jacketed magnetic line traps on liquid lines after every pump and a series of custom pivoting magnetic plates over enrobing lines plus additional box magnets on their packaging lines. Marc Truslow of CESCO Magnetics says, “the MagTraps that See’s installed on their pumping lines are ideal for pumped food applications because they were designed so that liquids and slurries flow-through multiple (seven) intense magnetic fields without slowing. MagTraps are easy to clean and the housings are manufactured from centrifugally spun cast stainless which compared to investment casting, delivers tight-grained defect free parts which is especially important when a pumped product is under high pressure or extreme temperatures. The series of custom built flanged or hinged magnets are designed and fabricated with trailing edges to capture and prevent contaminants from being brushed off by product flow on the enrobing and packaging lines. All CESCO separators employ rare earth magnets that are about five times stronger than ceramic magnets. Rare earth magnets are very efficient at removing the finest ferrous or work-hardened stainless particles, even those that are as small as 0.00001 inches and much too small to be detected by even state-of-the-art metal detectors.”

Micro Magtrap

CESCO

™ Magnetics announces the Micro-MagTrap™. This new magnetic separator or line trap is an extension one of the industry’s most powerful and popular magnetic separators. Powered by circuits of rare-earth Neodymium magnets, CESCO MagTraps remove metal trash as small as 0.000 inches from product flow. The new midi-model bridges the gap between the very popular Micro-MagTraps for ½ to ¾ inch processing lines, and full-sized MagTrap for 1.5 to 6 inch lines.

All CESCO magnetic line traps are manufactured to meet or exceed USDA AMS standards per NSF/ANSI/3-A 14159-1 2002 and engineered to withstand pressures of 200PSI and temperatures of 300⁰ F. MagTraps are commonly installed in front of fillers for product purity and in front of pumps, screens, and mills to protect equipment from metal trash.
