Electromagnetic Lifting Magnets

Product Description

Electromagnetic lifting magnets are used to handle scrap, plate, billets, sections and similar ferrous material with a crane. They are built as circular, rectangular and custom designs to suit the application.

Duty cycle is limited to 75%, with a maximum of 15 minutes continuous operation at full load. They can be operated by remote control and designed for high-temperature service.

How It Works

When the coil is energised, a strong magnetic field forms at the magnet face and the ferrous load is held. When the power is switched off, the load is released.

Applications

• Circular type: scrap and pig iron; steel, recycling, shipyard, metal and foundry industries

• Rectangular type: long products such as billets, beams and bars; rolling mill outlets, rail loading and unloading

• Custom type: designed to the customer's operating conditions

Advantages

• Safe operation

• Long service life

• Fully cast body and manganese steel bottom plate (circular type)

• Remote control and high-temperature options

Technical Data

• Duty cycle: 75%

• Continuous operation at full load: 15 minutes

• Rectangular type: 2–4 units used together depending on the load
