Magnets play an important role in lifting technology, especially when handling ferromagnetic materials. Here are some points that explain the importance of magnets in lifting technology:
Simplified handling: The use of magnets considerably simplifies the handling of metallic loads. Magnetic lifters, also known as magnetic grippers or magnetic plates, can be easily attached to a crane or lifting device. The magnetic holding force enables the load to be gripped and held securely without the need for additional fixings or brackets.
Increased efficiency: The use of magnets can improve the efficiency of load handling. Magnets allow loads to be gripped and released quickly and easily, resulting in shorter cycle times and increased productivity. This allows work processes to be optimized and costs to be reduced.
Flexibility and versatility: Magnets offer a high degree of flexibility and versatility in lifting technology. Depending on the requirements, different types of magnets can be used, such as electromagnets or permanent magnets. There are also different versions and sizes of magnetic grippers that can be adapted to specific requirements and loads.
Safety: Magnets can also help to improve safety. Secure magnetic adhesion can reduce the likelihood of load shedding or accidents. Nevertheless, it is important to observe the correct safety measures to prevent accidental release of the loads.
Our linear solenoids are characterized by their attractive, easy-to-handle design. The high magnetic force of the neodymium magnets enables a compact, lightweight design. The smallest magnet weighs just 2.5 kg and fits comfortably in the palm of your hand. It is designed for 100 kg and is 3.5 times safer! All solenoids are tested with 3.5 times their nominal load (ELM-3000 with 3 times).
We also have vertical lifters and traverses in our range!
