Material Handling Magnets
Utilizing the performance and safety features of the Permadur Lifting Magnets, these steel plate handling systems can be manned with a single operator as well as handle a single plate off of a stack. All of which can significantly increase your material handling efficiency.
Let Permadur’s application engineers custom design a Plate Handling System to best fit your material handling application.

8’ x 20’-50’ Plate Sizes
These Permadur Heavy Plate Handling Systems are very similar to our Large Plate handling Systems, but typically will utilize an array of our FP-4000 Lifting Magnets to provide a higher lifting capacity per magnet.

8’ x 20’-50’ Plate Sizes
These Permadur Large Plate Lifting Magnets typically are handling steel plate sizes ranging from 8′ Wide x 20′-50′ in Length and are 3/16″ to 1″ Thick. These Systems include selective controllers (typically by Row), utilize either a self-contained rechargeable battery or Single Phase AC Power Supply, and include Spring Suspension Assemblies for each Magnet to insure proper load sharing.

4’ x 8’, 5’ x 10’, 6’ x 12’ Plate Sizes
These Permadur Small Plate Handling Systems are typically designed to handle 4’ x 8’, 5’ x 10’. And 6’ x 12’ plate sizes with thicknesses ranging from 3/16” to 1”. For thinner plate in this size range please refer to the Thin Plate Handling Section or Vacuum Lifting Systems.

Sheet Lifting—3/16” thickness or less
These Permadur Thin Plate Handling Systems are built to support the handling of thinner gauge material. In order to provide single plate handling off a stack for plates thinner than 3/16″ thick, we utilize a special Permadur Electroperm Magnet whose magnetic intensity / depth of field can be reduced or increased depending on the Plate thickness.
