Cranes Manufacturer: Provides Custom Solution for Magnet Cranes

Magnet cranes enable quick, safe work processes vital to the steel industry. Magnetic lifting beams that pick up steel are usually application-specific depending on material properties, shape, size, and weight of a load. Experienced crane-building experts are able to handle these challenging magnet crane solutions that require elevated safety requirements.  


 
A lifting beam moves long material, but if this lifting beam is too long, shorter parts cannot be safely transported and stored. If, however, the lifting beam is too short, it is not possible to lift long rods safely. If both types of materials need to be transported, it is more efficient to use a two-part lifting beam that can be inclined. In this configuration, either four magnets are available for long objects or just two at different heights for short steel rods. This solution requires a special lifting beam and two hoists that can be controlled independently of one another when necessary.
 
The two hoists on the crane normally run in tandem mode. A crane operator places the magnetic lifting beam down on the steel via radio remote control, activates the four electromagnets with a button, and the load is held safely. If shorter steel components need to be picked up, the two parts of the lifting beam can be operated independently and moved to different heights with the help of wire rope hoists and their magnets.
