How do you lift or move a large heavy steel plate, like a sheet metal weighing up to 15 tons? Which plate lifters will you choose, plate hooks, plate clamps or plate magnets? Let's take a look at HVR MAG's custom steel lifting equipment -
16 ton steel plate lifting magnet for outdoor plate stacking.
This below-the-hook lifting magnet, in conjunction with an overhead crane, works as a magnetic type of steel plate handling equipment, including stacking and destacking. It can pick up a single steel plate weighing up to 15 tons, 15 meters in length, without clinging to the next sheet. As the picture shows, it's designed with 8 sets of elastically suspended magnetic modules, 16 in total.
The 16 ton steel plate lifting magnet is equipped with a selector switch that allows to activate/deactivate a selective number of magnetic modules. That is to say, for plates with shorter size, only a partial of magnets can be selected for the loading and unloading of plates. Flexible design.
