Optimag P Magnetic Handling System
Ideal for lifting or handling rigid, thin, perforated or sheet steel
Fast, easy lifting, handling and placing of ferrous loads
Overview - Optimag E - Electronically Activated Handling System
Optimag E is ideal for clamping or lifting loads of >10mm thickness with smooth, flat surfaces. Available in circular or custom rectangular configurations, Optimag E is typically used in robotics, pick and place, transfer machinery or manipulator applications. The ESPM lifter incorporates permanent magnetic technology. An electric current is only required to switch it on or off.
Once energised or de-energised it will not change until it receives another signal, hence if the power source fails the load will still be held securely. In addition a built in safety circuit prevents the unit being used until it is fully magnetised.
Please contact us for custom rectangular variations.
* Please note that the Working Load Limit (WLL) is now used instead of Safe Working Load (SWL). The Lifting force values shown include the 3:1 safety factor and have been based on using thick high magnetic permeability steel with no air gaps. Air gaps, thinner materials and materials with lower magnetic permeability can all reduce the pull force a lifter can actually achieve. Please note that the achievable pull force is reduced when lifting thinner mild steel plate. Please note that the diameter of the round bar can affect the amount of lift that can be achieved. You must follow LOLER, PUWER, ASME B30.20 and H&S advice. You should always check for a downrate, factor in any downrate to then perform a safety lift, then perform a full lift only after a successful safety lift.
