There needs to be an air gap so that there is magnetic force only pulling on the iron in the solution. If the magnets are touching the pan, then it would magnetize the entire pan, and iron would stick to the walls and everything, defeating the purpose of settling the iron on the bottom.

[@CSUnited14]

logical

[@jimhartland1939]

I concur 😊

[@davidvoltz1992]

Exactly right. Steve itt be a pain in the ass cleaning that if you stick them directly to the tub. The air gap and being encased in aluminum keep the tub from magnetizing and allow the material to settle

[@ruscoe8831]

yea what he said !

[@young11984]

From what i saw that pan looks to be plastic so regardless of if the magnets was directly attached the pan wouldn’t be magnetized.

[@midagemtbr5159]

This brought back some memories for me from nearly 20yr ago when I was involved in a similar situation. I was there to install the machine but the riggers were running late and hadn't even got the machine in the shop yet which ended up being a good thing because the machine was to wide to fit thru the doors or be picked up the side. It was decided the best course of action was to remove one of the side sections of the sheet metal. The similarities didn't end there though as the customer was John Force Racing.

[@trickyhickey69]

My son always tells me I’m so smart that I’m stupid. My guess would be that those magnets are the way they are so you can easily remove them and then you can clean the coolant tank without disturbing the debris, remove the magnets and gently, and then you can clean the debris from the bottom of the cooling tank without steering it all up

[@joep1253]

[@drew79s]

In your machine hone, that's a coolant settling tank, it's the first step before all the filters and stuff... They do that so that it saves your filters and stuff :) It should be a weekly activity to dredge the tank, drain the air tanks in the cnc, check all your lube points for anything manual and check your lube tanks. For your magnet plate, do yourself a favour and put them into a plastic bag, the aluminium is for encapsulation, so you don't end up with crap permanently stuck to them... Adding the plastic will make 100% sure.

Grats on the new monster machine!

[@logannewman4532]

Here's my thought by your own neodymium magnets large ones and then put them inside. Stainless steel sleeves or tubing. Possibly exhaust pipe so that the iron will stick to the outside of it instead of the magnet and then put them actually in with the coolant in the tank. That way you pick up the stainless steel tubing, pull the magnet out of it and all the filings fall off

There’s a company in Michigan called Ebco. They build, convert or upgrade filtration systems for grinders. They are the absolute best at what they do. You really need to contact them and have them come out so they can assess your filtration system. You really should have a paper filtration system so as the fluid comes off the part your honing, those fine metal particles get filtered through the paper. It’s kind of the same principle as a coffee pot. The water passes through the filter media but the particles get filtered through the paper. Those filters in the back of the machine should be your very last line of defense, not your main. You’ve got way too much metal going into your tank and into your filtration system.

Draining coolant uphill into a drum. Attach a hose to either drum bung. While one person uses the hose in the coolant. Another modulates a shop vacuum hose over the other drum bung. Warning the vacuum cleaner can collapse the drum you only have to lift the coolant 3 feet. Depending on the specific weight of the coolant you don't need much suction to do it. If you use a swiming pool hose or a piece of tygon tubing even 3/4 heater hose. This will be crazy fast.
