  • Patent number: 11565274
    Abstract: Provided is a magnetic separator in which even when content of a magnetic sludge in a liquid to be treated increases, recovery performance of the magnetic sludge is less likely to degrade and a malfunction of the device is less likely to occur. A part of an outer peripheral surface of a magnet drum is immersed in a flow of the liquid to be treated containing the magnetic sludge. A removing mechanism removes the magnetic sludge on the outer peripheral surface of the magnet drum from the outer peripheral surface of the magnet drum. A magnetic sludge containing information acquisition device acquires magnetic sludge containing information relating to a content of the magnetic sludge contained in the liquid to be treated. A control device changes a magnetic sludge removal capability of the magnet drum depending on the magnetic sludge containing information acquired by the magnetic sludge containing information acquisition device.

  • Patent number: 10307767
    Abstract: A rotary drum-type magnetic separator includes a first rotary drum on which a plurality of magnets are disposed and separates unnecessary objects from a used coolant liquid. A second rotary drum on which a plurality of magnets are disposed is provided before the first rotary drum in a direction in which the used coolant liquid flows separately from the first rotary drum. The second rotary drum includes an outer tube and an inner tube. A scraper which scrapes off the unnecessary objects attached to the second rotary drum is connected to a bottom member which forms a flow path below the first rotary drum.

  • Patent number: 9452624
    Abstract: A printing position and cutting position adjusting method includes: printing on a medium an origin point adjusting image having multiple checking blocks using an ink-jet head; cutting the medium using a cutting head along a contour of the origin point adjusting image; removing a part of the medium cut by the cutting head from the medium; and inputting an amount of misalignment between a position at which the image is printed on the medium and a position at which the medium is cut to a controller. The amount of misalignment is inputted as a correction value between the printing position and the cutting position. The printing of the origin point adjusting image or the cutting of the medium includes a check process of producing a position shift per a predetermined dimension by each checking block in a main scanning direction or a sub scanning direction of the ink-jet head.

  • Patent number: 9023200
    Abstract: A rotary-drum type magnetic separator includes a rotary drum on which a plurality of magnets are disposed, and separates an unnecessary material contained in used coolant. The magnetic separator includes a pair of partition portions that are provided below both end portions of the rotary drum and partition a flow passage, in which the used coolant flows, into a flow passage that is formed near the middle portion of the rotary drum and flow passages that are formed near both end portions of the rotary drum; and openings that are formed at lower portions of the flow passages partitioned by the partition portions. The partition portions function as filters preventing the unnecessary material from moving to the flow passages, which are formed near both end portions of the rotary drum, from the flow passage that is formed near the middle portion of the rotary drum.
