Lifting magnets are an essential tool for handling heavy metal objects in various industrial settings. When it comes to round steel materials such as pipes, tubes, coils and rods, lifting magnets can be particularly useful. In this blog, we will explore what lifting magnets for round material are and how to choose the right one for your needs.
What are Lifting Magnets for Round Material?
Lifting magnets for round material are specifically designed to lift and handle cylindrical metal objects. These magnets use a powerful magnetic field to securely hold the round material in place, allowing it to be lifted, moved, and positioned with ease. They are commonly used in manufacturing, construction, and other industrial applications where round materials need to be moved frequently.
How to choose the right lifting magnet for round material
When choosing a lifting magnet for round material, there are several factors to consider:
Material Type and Size: The lifting magnet you choose should be compatible with the material type and size you will be handling. Consider the diameter and length of the round material, as well as its weight and surface texture.
Lifting Capacity: The lifting capacity of the magnet should match or exceed the weight of the round material you will be handling. Make sure to choose a lifting magnet that can handle the heaviest load you will encounter.
Safety Features: Look for lifting magnets with safety features such as a fail-safe mechanism that prevents the magnet from releasing the load if power is lost.
Application: Consider the specific application for which you will be using the lifting magnet. Will you be using it indoors or outdoors? Will it be exposed to extreme temperatures or harsh environmental conditions?
By considering these factors, you can choose the right lifting magnet for your needs and ensure safe and efficient handling of round materials in your workplace.
HVR MAG has two ranges of lifting magnets for round material. One is the HC series dedicated to the handling of steel coils. One is the HT series for the handling of steel tubes. They are both made of electro-permanent magnets and are energy efficient and safe. If you need an automated solution for round steel handling, find out about our magnetic grippers.
