CLEANING STATION TO REMOVE SURFACE IMPURITIES, ESPECIALLY FERROUS PARTICLES, FROM THE SURFACE OF A MAGNETIC ROTOR
A cleaning station for removing surface impurities from the surface of a cylindrical magnetic rotor having an axis; the cleaning station comprises: a seat for housing the magnetic rotor in a rotatable manner about its axis; a first pin having an axis parallel to the axis of the magnetic rotor when housed in the seat, wherein the first pin is rotatable about its axis and supports a roll of adhesive tape; a second pin having an axis parallel to the axis for the first pin; wherein the second pin receives an initial unwinding end of the roll of adhesive tape supported on the first pin and is rotatable about its axis to progressively wind the adhesive tape about its axis during unwinding from the first pin; a motorization for commanding the unwinding of the adhesive tape from the first pin and the winding of the adhesive tape on the second pin; a pusher device configured to press the adhesive tape as it passes from the first and to the second pin against the magnetic rotor housed in the seat so that by dragging, the motion of the adhesive tape commands the rotation of the magnetic rotor about its axis and the surface impurities on the magnetic rotor migrate from the magnetic rotor to the adhesive tape remaining attached on the adhesive of the adhesive tape.
