Safe and Efficient Loading Steel Plates for Laser Cutting System

Sep 30,2024

Steel laser cutting is a process that uses a high-powered laser beam to cut through steel. It offers high precision, flexibility, and can be used on a wide range of steel thicknesses. Widely used in industries like automotive, aerospace, and construction.

Material Handling Difficulties in Steel Laser Cutting

Although laser cutting technology has high precision and efficiency, there are still multiple difficulties in the cutting process of steel after cutting:

Weight and volume: Cut steel is usually heavy and bulky, and traditional handling methods may lead to difficulties and safety hazards.

Easy to deform: After laser cutting, there may be a heat affected zone at the edge of the steel, causing deformation of the material. Careful handling is required during transportation.

Low efficiency: During the cutting process, manual handling is inefficient and may cause the production line to stagnate.


Traditional Steel Lifting Solution

In order to address the above difficulties, enterprises usually take the following conventional measures:

Using cranes or forklifts: transporting heavy steel through mechanical equipment, but this requires additional equipment investment and space.

Increasing manpower: relying on manual handling and operation, but this will increase labor costs and may also lead to safety risks.

Customized stand: Design specialized stands to support and move materials, but this may increase production cycles and complexity.

Lifting Device for Safe And Efficient Steel Loading

However, these traditional measures have certain limitations, such as high equipment investment, complex operation, low efficiency, and safety hazards.

In order to improve efficiency and save labor costs, more and more companies are choosing to use electro permanent lifting magnet to help them load and unload steel materials in steel cutting process. Because electro permanent lifting magnet can adapt to various shapes and sizes of steel, whether it is flat or irregular parts, they can be easily lifted.


Production efficiency improvement:The handling time for unloading has been reduced by about 40%, from the original 6 tons per hour to 10 tons per hour.

Reduced labor costs: Reduced labor costs by at least 30%, especially in heavy steel handling.

Conclusion

The application of electro permanent magnet lifting equipment in the cutting process of steel after laser cutting not only solves the difficulties of traditional handling methods, but also brings significant economic benefits and safety guarantees to enterprises. With the continuous advancement of technology, electro permanent magnet lifting equipment will become an important tool in the steel processing industry, helping enterprises gain advantages in fierce market competition.
