Mag-mate TNF06 Thin Gauge Magnetic Sheet Separator Fanner

Product Description

The MAG-MATE TNF06 is a thin gauge magnetic sheet separator fanner designed to hold and fan out stacks of ferrous sheet metal during fabrication and stamping operations. The unit uses magnetic force to slightly separate individual sheets, preventing double-feeding and misfires in press or automated handling lines. Measuring 6.1875 inches wide, 6 inches high, and 1.4375 inches deep, it fits compactly at the edge of a sheet stack. At 9 pounds, the unit provides substantial holding mass without requiring additional mounting hardware in many setups. Sheet metal fabricators and press operators are the primary users of this tool.

This fanner is used in metal fabrication shops, stamping facilities, and press rooms where thin gauge ferrous sheet stock is fed into dies or forming equipment. It is positioned at the edge of a stacked sheet pile and relies on its magnetic field to create a slight fanning effect that allows single sheets to be picked up cleanly. It is suited for light-gauge steel sheet handling where consistent single-sheet feeding is critical to production quality and equipment safety.

Key Features

• Magnetic fanning action separates thin gauge ferrous sheet stock to prevent double-feeding
• Compact footprint: 6.1875 inches wide x 6 inches high x 1.4375 inches deep
• Substantial 9-pound unit mass aids stable positioning at sheet stack edge
• No external power source required - passive permanent magnet operation
• Single-unit package quantity for straightforward procurement

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style fanner for use with thin gauge ferrous sheet metal stacks in press and stamping line applications.

Installation Notes

Positioning and setup is typically performed by press operators or metal fabrication technicians. The fanner should be placed at the edge of the sheet stack with the magnetic face oriented toward the stack. Ensure the surrounding area is clear of loose ferrous debris before placing the unit, as the magnetic field will attract loose metal fragments. Follow the equipment manufacturer and shop safety guidelines when working near active press or stamping machinery.
