How do you lift a heavy steel plate?

As part of industrial operations, steel sheets need special equipment to transport from one site to another. Plate clamps, plate hooks, and magnets are the three primary devices commonly applied to lift steel plates. Through technological innovations and improvements in crane design, steel plate handling equipment
plate clamps

 Also known as plate hooks, plate clamps can be used to lift several steel sheets at a time, and depending on the load thickness that needs lifting; we can choose different models. Plate clamps can hold the steel in both vertical and horizontal positions and customer positions, as per your requirements. Two or more clamps are often used together and are often complemented by the use of spreader beams, which help spread the load evenly and enable the clamps to be spaced out evenly.

plate magnets

As the name suggests, lifting magnets work by holding a strong magnetic force on steel sheets. Lifting magnets can be used to lift various objects, such as tubing, piping, and cylindrical steel objects. There are mainly three types of interests that can be used for lifting steel materials: permanent lifting magnets, electric lifting magnets, and electro-permanent magnets.

Take electro-permanent magnets, for example,
