Electromagnetic Lifting Magnets – Caring For Industrial Equipment
Electromagnetic lifting magnets are made from the most powerful permanent magnetic material available, neodymium. But how long do they last - are permanent magnets actually permanent? By nature, these magnets are built to withstand the pressure from the toughest...
Typical Applications For Industrial Strength Magnets
Industrial strength magnets are used in a variety of applications across several industries. A company may need to transfer loads to shot blast tables, they may need to lift specially shaped loads, or may simply need to lift plates of various sizes. Each application...
The Main Features of Permanent Industrial Lifting Electromagnets
When it comes to lifting magnets, nothing is one-size-fits-all. There are various types and applications, each with its own benefits and shortcomings. Permanent industrial lifting electromagnets are some of the more commonly used options, and with good reason....
Plate Lifting Equipment Vulnerabilities and Common Causes of Accidents
Plate lifting equipment is a significant investment that is important to protect. Not only are pieces of equipment like heavy lifting magnets expensive, but they facilitate the daily operations of your business. Most damage occurs due to collisions with other heavy...
Understanding The Working Principles of Electro-Permanent Lifting Magnets
Electro-permanent lifting magnets are a type of industrial lifting magnet made from steel parts, coils, magnetic materials, and an electric control device. This hybrid has permanent lifting magnets that can be turned ‘off and on’ with electricity. They are quite...
Operating Permanent Lifting Magnets for Heavy Material Handling
Permanent industrial magnets are relied upon for heavy material handling for countless industries across the world. They are effective in moving heavy metal plates, blocks and molds, and are used everywhere from docks and warehouses to factories and transportation...
