8 Benefits of HVR Steel Plate Lifting Magnets

Steel plate lifting magnets are the best solution of steel sheets handling. There are many types of lifting magnets, how to make the right choice? Here we list 8 benefits of HVR steel plate lifting magnets.

High efficiency:

Steel plate lifting magnets combined with electric hoists can be used by a single person to lift plates remotely, improving labour efficiency. Our lifting magnets allow precise control of the magnetic force. It can lift several steel plates and release a single plate. When lifting single thin steel plate, it is guaranteed that the next one will not stick together.

Safety:

Steel plate lifting magnets of HVR MAG are made of electro-permanent magnets. Also called electrically switched permanent magnets. It use an electric current to control the switching of the magnet’s magnetism. But do not require an electric current to maintain the magnetism. Because the magnetic field comes from the permanent magnet material inside. This makes it very safe as the magnetism will not be lost due to power failure or overheating of the internal coils.

Easy to use:

steel plate lifting magnets of HVR MAG have two types of operation, buttons on panel and vibration control. If there are several magnet modules, they can be controlled in groups and the magnetic strength can be graduated. As long as the maximum lifting capacity of a single lifting magnet is not exceeded, handling of steel plates of different sizes and weights is easily achieved.

Low energy consumption:

Lifting magnets made of electric permanent magnet does not require electricity to maintain magnetism. Therefore, it only uses electricity for a few seconds during a working cycle when it is magnetised and demagnetised (a single magnetisation or demagnetisation takes less than 1 second). Compared to electromagnet, HVR steel plate lifting magnets save 95% of electrical energy.

Customisable:

Every company has different sizes and weights of steel plates and different lifting methods. HVR MAG can customise the length, magnetic strength, number of magnets and appearance of your lifting magnets. Telescopic beam and battery versions are also available. If your own factory has the manufacturing capability, you can also order just the magnet module and controller. Then fabricate the beam and assemble the magnets yourself. This reduces transport difficulties and costs.

Multiple applications:

HVR MAG lifting magnets can be used not only for indoor handling in factories, but also in outdoor situations where battery-powered lifting magnets can perform excellent handling tasks. As the electro-permanent magnet does not require much electrical power, the battery-powered lifting magnet can be used for long periods of time. Combined with a forklift truck, it becomes even more flexible and your handling operations are no longer limited by the power cable.

Non-destructive handling:

When handling thin steel plates, most lifting tools such as hooks and steel plate clamps can leave scratches on the surface of the plate and even cause it to deform. HVR steel plate lifting magnets do not damage the surface of the plate because our magnets have a very flat surface. If you are still concerned, you can place a thin rubber pad between the steel plate and the magnet. There will be a very small gap of about 0.2 to 0.5 mm between them.

Low maintenance costs:

There are no moving parts inside HVR lifting magnets. Therefore, the likelihood of part failure is very low. Normally, as long as the temperature does not exceed the permissible range, the magnetic force of the permanent magnet used in our products will not decrease by more than 5% in 10 years. Unlike electromagnets, there is no possibility of the coils burning out. Generally, you only need to check the appearance of our lifting magnets and keep the adsorption surface clean during normal use.
