When steel tubes or pipes are floor-stacked, they are often banded or bundled to prevent sliding and rolling. Therefore, handling steel tubes requires special bundle lifter or lifting device to ensure that the lift is carried out safely and efficiently. Below is an application of
steel lifting magnets, tailor made by
HVR MAG, transferring steel tube bundles.
Material to be handled: bundled round steel tubes in different diameters.
Problem: lifting with mechanical slings or tongs, is not only time-consuming, but also can lead to sliding/rolling tubes. Possible scratches to the surface of tubes might be left.
Problem: lifting with mechanical slings or tongs, is not only time-consuming, but also can lead to sliding/rolling tubes. Possible scratches to the surface of tubes might be left.
HVR MAG's Magnetic Solution: steel lifting magnets, with 2 large rectangular magnetic modules suspended at each end, can pick up 5 bundles each time.

Benefits gained with this magnetic bundle lifting beam:
-
Remote control available, only 1 worker required for operation
-
Significantly improved handling efficiency - handling time shortened, and quantity of lifting bundles increased
-
Eliminated sliding or rolling tubes - magnetic clamping force uniformly distributed among each bundle; magnetic flux penetration ensures that the tubes inside the bundle can be attracted tightly.
-
No energy consumption during lift - the permanent electromagnet property only needs electricity for MAG and DEMAG phase.
-
Even in a sudden power failure, the bundles been picked up, will not drop - as the magnetic force still remains.
