Forklift, as a handling vehicle in the industry, is widely used in the loading and unloading, and palletizing of goods. However, in the process of handling steel plates and other sheet metal, the use of manual effort and forklift is often time-consuming and laborious. What’s more, the safety performance is poor. Here today, you must get to know this combination of forklift and lifting magnet. See how HVR MAG gets this custom lifting magnet done to the customer’s specific requirements.
How did HVR MAG custom design the lifting magnet used with a forklift?
Many people may have doubts: how to combine a forklift and an EPM lifter? Firstly, HVR MAG chose the rechargeable electro-permanent lifting magnet with a battery supply, as the customer required. Secondly, we welded two long rectangular tubes on the lifting beam to ensure that the forklift can lift the magnet. Last but not least, we designed it to have 6 magnet modules and a telescopic lifting beam. All were designed according to the customer’s requirements. Thus it can lift sheet metal of various sizes on the forklift, the two can cooperate.
Benefits of the combination:
- High quality. The one-of-a-kind design makes it very simple and convenient for the operator to use. The use of a magnetic lifter with a forklift not only can effectively solve the problem of scratching and paint loss caused by the forklift. As we know the forklift needs to contact the bottom plate of the cargo box. Thus the lifter can ensure the quality and safety of the product to the greatest extent. What’s more, it can improve the efficiency of loading and unloading.
- High safety. When designing an electro-permanent lifting magnet to carry heavy loads, you need to determine in advance that it has a sufficiently large magnetic force. Our engineers will design a suitable electro-permanent magnetic solution for you according to your operational requirements. The HVR MAG lifting magnet has a safety factor of 1:3 to ensure that it can firmly clamp the loaded object without dropping it. In case of bad weather and other factors, our lifting magnets can still improve the overall transport efficiency and safety performance.
Such a combination solves the problem of the bulk steel plate and steel pipe palletizing and transportation. Perfectly it realizes the efficient handling of workpieces. In addition to the forklift and lifting magnet combination, there can also be a crane, or an electric hoist, or other lifting equipment used with a lifting magnet.
