The heavy duty LMR - X and extra heavy duty LMR – XS models are used for particularly  heavy loads when the requisite heavy duty cranes are available.  They transfer compressed scrap with typical  densities  in excess of 1 T/M3. Although  the diameters are the same  as for the standard range, they are designed for  higher performance.  They are therefore  heavier and require  heavy duty cranes. The XS models are distinguished from the X models by their taller coil,  producing an even higher  magnetic output.

Elektromag Circular  Lifting Magnets  - the difference  is the quality

Many Circular  lifting magnets tend to resemble one another:

Elektromag magnets outperform the  rest in many respects:

The cast housing: This  is made from quality cast steel, combining extreme  ruggedness with high conductivity.

The Bumping plate: A strong  plate cast from hard, wear-resistant,  manganese steel protects the coil but does not interfere with the  magnetic field.

The coil: This is made from Anodised  strip or aluminium/copper conductor. The anodised  aluminium  strip  requires  no insulation  between turns and  has a much better fill factor than copper coils, which  increases the load possibilities.  The coil is also extremely temperature-resistant.

The heat conduction medium: This  insulates the coil from the casing both electrically and mechanically, conducting any heat away outside.  lt must also withstand  critical temperature spikes without  damage.  Circular  lifting  magnets can have operating  temperatures    of over 200'C in the coil. They  must also be able to withstand  high pressure during  heating.  To meet these requirements  we use the latest heat conduction materials, specially  manufactured to our  instructions.

The design: The magnetic  pole, the steel cross-section  and the flow through the coil have all been precisely  tailored to each other to provide  optimum transport  power  and weight conditions.

Accessories

We  provide the required power supply for each of our  magnets, designed to suit the magnet and your own mains supply.  Sets of backup batteries & battery charger to protect against  power failures that  could cause the load to fall. (optional)
We also provide  Spring / Sprocket  driven  cable reeling drums. (optional)

YOU  BENEFIT FROM:

The longest operational life: Elektromag  lifting magnets   have  been  in use for decades.

Optimum performance  and weight conditions:  Your existing  crane can operate  to its maximum capacity, with every load optimised.

Special  designs for every application: All our magnets are weatherproof  and designed for open-air  use.  Magnets can be designed for extreme operating conditions:  for instance, Elektromag can supply  specially  insulated  magnets for use in transporting  hot material. Based on our experience of installing thousands  of Elektromag  Circular  Lifting Magnets, we can determine  and build the precise type of product suitable for your task.

Based on our vast experience we can ensure the  best results in every type of application  and can produce special designs to suit your requirements.

Complete solutions:  We examine your  requirements and  your operating conditions  and then produce a complete solution  precisely  tailored to your needs with all the components  optimally  adapted to each other from the power supply to the  magnet itself.

Our experience: We have a lot of practical  experience. From processing scrap,  right through  to skull cracker  ball operations,  we have supplied equipment  for every conceivable.
