Lifting magnets move tubing, coils and plate in steel mills. Lifting magnets move scrap in scrap yards. However a lifting magnet is used, lifting magnets are designed to live in extreme hot and extreme cold conditions with constant exposure to shock. Do the lifting magnets you use in your industry provide weak productivity? Dropped loads? […]
Magnet needs a lift? CMT repairs lifting magnets
A lifting magnet picks up or lifts metal objects. Most lifting magnets are used in steel mills, scrap yards, loading docks, ship yard and foundries. An industrial lift magnet has magnetic properties in its coil and is usually attached to a crane. The crane moves the magnet above an object and the magnet is energized […]
Ohm’s law — How a lifting magnet work
Industrial Lifting Magnets are very simple machines. They are nothing more than a string of wire wrapped around a magnetic core. This string of wire has resistance (ohms) that govern what current (amps) flows at a given voltage (volts). All DC magnets obey Ohm’s law. A magnet at room temperature, or ambient temperature, has the […]
Lifting magnets transport steel and scrapped vehicles in industry
A lifting magnet does exactly what it says: it’s an electromagnet that can pick up or lift metal objects. A lifting magnet has magnetic properties in its electrified coil and is normally attached to a crane. The crane then positions the magnet above the objects and the magnet is energized. Lifting magnets vary in size. […]
