1. A device (100) for automatic capturing and removing magnetic material from a flow of material, comprising
a plurality of retractable magnet rod assemblies (10) for capturing magnetic material in a flow of material passing the retractable magnet rod assemblies (10), each retractable magnet rod assembly (10) including a magnet rod (11) comprising at least two magnet segments (11a) encapsulated in a non-magnetic material, wherein
the retractable magnet rod assemblies (10) are independently pivotable about a common pivoting axis structure (50), and
the magnet rod (11) is arranged to an actuator mechanism (22) of a linear actuator assembly (20) retracting and extending the magnet rod (11) into and out from a housing (21) of the actuator assembly (20),
wherein the linear actuator assembly (20) comprises at least one wiper (23) at one end where the magnet rod (11) protrudes from the housing (21), the at least one wiper (23) configured to remove magnetic material as the magnet rod (11) is retracted into the housing (21).
