Safe Lifting Magnets in Steel Structure Plant

Steel material handling is an essential aspect of steel structure plant operations. It involves the transportation, storage, and movement of steel materials within the plant. Efficient material handling practices are crucial to ensure smooth production processes and minimize the risk of accidents or damage. Choosing suitable lifting equipment is essential to reduce risks in thick steel plate handling. Electro permanent lifting magnets play an important role in steel material handling.

Risks in Handling Thick Steel Plates

Weight and size: Thick steel plates can be extremely heavy, often weighing several tons. Handling such weight requires specialized equipment and skilled operators. Moving large-sized plates through narrow spaces or around obstacles can also be challenging.

Structural integrity: Mismanagement during handling can compromise the structural integrity of the plates. Improper lifting or placing excessive stress on certain areas can lead to deformation, warping, or even structural failure, impairing the quality of the finished structure.

Falling objects: Improperly secured or unstable stacks of plates can collapse or shift, causing a risk of falling objects. This endangers nearby workers and equipment, potentially resulting in severe injuries or damage.

Electro Permanent Lifting Magnets: Solution to Thick Steel Plates

Electro permanent lifting magnets have a high lifting capacity, making them suitable for handling thick steel plates in steel structure plants. They can lift and transport a wide range of plate thicknesses, typically up to 100 tons.

They offer a simple and efficient operation. They can be activated or deactivated with an electrical current, eliminating the need for continuous power supply during operation. Once the magnet is activated, it generates a strong magnetic field that securely holds the steel plates until released. The ability to turn the magnet on and off with an electrical current ensures enhanced safety for workers. In case of power failure, the permanent magnet retains its magnetic strength, preventing the risk of dropping the load. This feature eliminates the need for backup power sources and minimizes any safety hazards.

Recommendation of Electro Permanent Lifting Magnets

Electro permanent lifting magnets can be customized to suit specific plant requirements. They can be designed with different lifting capacities and configurations, ensuring compatibility with the steel plates.
