Lifting Magnets: Structure and Safe Usage

Lifting magnets are efficient lifting devices that help handle steel plates and steel pipes easily in heavy industry. At Naltako, we provide lifting magnets as a perfect supporting solution for equipment such as scissor lifts and mini cranes, ensuring safety and productivity. With strong magnetic force and a durable design, lifting magnets meet diverse needs from construction to shipbuilding. Explore details about lifting magnets and solutions from Naltako in the article below.

What is a Lifting Magnet? How is it Structured?

A lifting magnet, or permanent magnetic lifter, is a device that uses the magnetic field of NdFeB rare earth magnets to attract and lift metallic materials such as steel plates, steel pipes, or steel billets in industrial lifting equipment. The structure includes:

• Rare earth magnets: Create strong magnetic force, maintaining magnetism over time.
• ON/OFF lever: Controls the magnetic field, easy to operate.
• Galvanized steel alloy ring: High load-bearing capacity, connects to wire rope hoists or winches.
• Impact-resistant steel casing: Protects the magnets and increases durability.

What are the Popular Types of Lifting Magnets?

Lifting magnets come in many types with diverse load capacities from 100kg to 10 tons, meeting needs in construction, shipbuilding, and manufacturing. Popular lines include:

• DBK PML-100: 100kg capacity, suitable for lifting thin steel plates.
• Kenbo PML-4: 400kg capacity, ideal for small factories.
• Kenbo PML-30: 3-ton capacity, used for large steel plates.
• DBK PML-1000: 1-ton capacity, popular in shipbuilding.
• 10-ton magnet: Specialized for lifting heavy steel billets, suction force is 3.5 times the rated load.

How to Use Lifting Magnets Safely?

To use lifting magnets effectively within labor protection equipment, the following steps should be followed:

1. Surface preparation: Ensure the metal material is clean, free of oil and dust.
2. Placing the magnet: Place the magnet face down close to the steel surface, switch the lever to ON to attract.
3. Lifting and lowering: Connect the galvanized steel alloy ring to the winch or hoist, move slowly.
4. Releasing the material: Switch the lever to OFF to cut off the magnetic field and release the material safely.

Safety notes:

• Do not exceed the rated load capacity (100kg to 10 tons).
• Check the safety latch and lever before use.
• Avoid lifting materials that are not flat or thinner than 5mm.

Naltako provides detailed lifting magnet user manuals, integrated with hydraulic lift tables for efficient transport. Simple operation, no power source required, helping to save time and ensure labor safety.

Advantages of Manual Permanent Magnets Over Electromagnets?

Manual lifting magnets have many outstanding advantages over electromagnets in industrial lifting equipment:

• No power source needed: NdFeB rare earth magnets operate continuously without depending on electricity, saving operating costs.
• Compact and portable: Lightweight design, suitable for flexible construction sites, integrates well with hydraulic pallet trucks.
• High safety: The ON/OFF control lever allows for quick switching of the magnetic field, reducing risks from sudden power outages.
• Cost-saving: No complex maintenance required, longer lifespan than electromagnets.
• Instant efficiency: Strong suction force, quickly lifts heavy materials without waiting for startup.
