Passive lifting | unloading | transporting magnets

Technical Specifications

Magnetic force type: Passive: The magnets operate without continuous power supply; the magnetic force is generated by turning the lever, which activates the magnetic field.
Magnetic force control: Lever: The magnet's operation is controlled by a lever, allowing the magnetic field to be turned on and off depending on the lifting or unloading needs.
Easy operation: By placing the magnet onto the load and turning the lever, it captures the load, making it easy to move.
Materials: Suitable only for iron and steel cargo, as passive magnets work only with ferromagnetic materials.
Lifting capacity: Different models can lift various weights, typically ranging from a few kilograms to several tons, depending on the size and type of the magnet.
Construction: Compact and durable: Usually made from a sturdy steel casing to ensure durability and wear resistance.
Dimensions: Various sizes: Magnets are available in different sizes, tailored to the required load size and weight.

Usage

Cargo lifting: Passive lifting magnets are used in industrial companies and warehouses for lifting and transferring metal goods. They are suitable for transporting various metal items such as plates, rods, pipes, and other metal parts.
Unloading and transport tasks: These magnets are widely used in logistics centers and warehouses to conveniently unload and move metal goods from one location to another, including transporting them in vehicles.
Metal sorting: Passive magnets can be used to separate metal from other materials, for example, when sorting scrap metal or waste, as they effectively attract only ferromagnetic materials (iron, steel).
Installation and assembly: Used for installation tasks where precise and safe movement of metal parts to designated spots is required in assembly processes.

Advantages

Energy efficiency: Passive magnets do not require electrical power, making them cheaper and more environmentally friendly, as they can be used without additional energy costs.
Easy operation: The control of the magnet's operation is simple and straightforward with the lever, allowing for quick and precise lifting and unloading tasks.
Safety: Magnets ensure that metal goods are firmly secured, reducing the risk of slippage or falling during transport.
Versatile application: These magnets are excellent for working with metal goods across various industries, from manufacturing to logistics and recycling.
Durability: Due to their sturdy construction and low maintenance requirements, these magnets can serve for a long time, even in harsh working conditions.

Disadvantages

Limited application: Passive lifting magnets only work with iron and steel, making them unsuitable for other materials such as aluminum, copper, or other non-ferromagnetic metals.
Magnet strength depends on load size: The larger the load, the greater the magnetic force that needs to be generated to ensure safe lifting. This may limit the use of magnets for extremely large or heavy loads.
Physical effort: While the magnet has a lever, some models may require physical effort to lock or release, especially when a greater force is involved.
Installation and continuous use limitations: Passive magnets may be challenging to use in areas where constant and high-precision lifting is needed, as their magnetic force is not continuously controlled (it can only be switched with the lever).

Conclusion

Passive lifting, unloading, and transportation magnets are highly effective devices used in industry and logistics centers to safely and easily handle metal goods. They offer energy savings, ease of use, and durability. However, their application is limited as they can only work with ferromagnetic materials, and proper adjustment of magnetic force is necessary for lifting tasks.
