ELEKTROMAG Permanent Magnetic Lifters now have all the power and versatility of electro magnets with the added advantage of absolute safety and no dependence on power supply. The use of Rare Earth Magnets has resulted in powerful lifting capacity. Hence they are widely used for loading and unloading devices in factories, docks, warehouses and machine tool industries.
The safety aspects have been taken care of by providing a 3 to 1 safety factor and also a specially designed handle with safety lock. The magnets are guaranteed to retain original strength indefinitely under normal use.
One turn of the lever switches the magnet ON or OFF and makes it ideal for handing large and heavy workpieces easily by one operator offering an improved working condition with increased work efficiency.
Seven Models offer a wide choice of lifting capacities as also the special contoured or V-shaped pole profiles allows the same magnet to be used for lifting round bars or pipes and work pieces.
However, to obtain Maximum magnetic performance and successful magnetic handling, magnet must be placed on thick steel object or workpiece. Care must be taken to see that the surface of the workpiece is flat and there will be no “airgap” between the workpiece and the magnet.
Thin sheets, rough and irregular surfaces, odd shapes and rust can considerably diminish holding power and must be considered in determining a safety factor. The Permanent Magnetic Lifters function best at normal temperatures.
