Magnetic filter that does not clog the lubrication system of aircraft jet engine gearboxes.
◆High-speed rotating jet engines operate in harsh environments. The important gearbox that assists the jet engine in functioning properly. Lubricating oil must be continuously supplied to each mechanism and circulate smoothly. Challenge: How to efficiently remove sub-micron level hard metal particles floating in the lubricating oil. ◆Introduction Story The development project for a magnetic filter for the gearbox lubrication line, which is crucial to the jet engine, started upon receiving a development request from Rolls-Royce. After more than 10 years of extensive research and testing, it finally received certification as official equipment. And it was ultimately adopted for the Trent 500 turbofan jet engine used in the Airbus A340. The magnetic filter, Magnum, contributes to the safety of air travel.

basic information
**Structure** The accumulation zone is sandwiched between plates made of York iron, generating a strong magnetic flux. Additionally, since the accumulation zone and the flow path are completely independent, even if contaminants accumulate, they do not block the flow path. Furthermore, not blocking means that contaminants are not exposed to the flow, preventing any re-emission. This structure captures submicron contaminants that could cause significant damage to equipment while avoiding clogging or re-emission, which could lead to new equipment troubles.
