Magnetic Lifting Solutions for Tight Spaces

What magnetic lifting solutions will you make when encountering the following ferro-material handling problems or requirements?

1. The site is not convenient to connect electricity, the product needs to go with forklifts everywhere in the factory.

ect electricity, the product needs to go with forklifts everywhere.

2. There is only limited storage space since there are pin links between products.

3. There are safety hazards in the product experimental area. Hence, it is not very convenient for people to work there.

4. The product is a heavy load, weighing 300 kg.

5. A single person should operate the forklift and the lifting magnet.

Above are the difficulties that the Shenzhen Institute of Quality and Safety faced. And HVR MAG provided our custom magnetic lifting solutions for the material handling solutions for the above working conditions. 

For the first point, we designed the lifting magnet with a battery supply.

For the second point, to avoid the pins, we considered the ring or square-shaped electro-permanent magnet. So this requires detailed measurements and careful design.

The third point. If there is enough space we could have used the all-in-one lifting equipment for industrial material, which usually is the most in line with similar working conditions. However, the space is too limited, we could only disassemble the all-in-one lifting magnet. Although it’s been troublesome, we wanted to maximize the customer’s benefits.

The fourth point, with a magnetic force of 16kg/㎡, the electro-permanent lifting magnet is no problem with the heavy steel load. Considering there are pins, we need to calculate the loss of the magnetic force. Then we select a specific magnetic pole for the design.

The fifth point, the all-in-one lifting magnet was split into two. Then we need to connect the magnet and the battery controller group with lines. And the lines need some protection. Then the forklift driver can operate the magnetic lifting magnet with remote control, which ensures the safety of personnel and saves manpower on site.

In conclusion, that is our custom magnetic solution for ferrous material handling in tight spaces. Custom magnetic lifting solutions by HVR MAG maximize each of our customers’ profits with our dedicated professionals.
