FX ACCESSORIES

Accessories for Magnetic Lifters

We offer a range of ready-to-use accessories, designed to solve in a practical way the most disparate needs for handling and lifting loads.

Vegatechnik staff will be glad to assist you in customizing accessories tailored to your needs.

COMPLETE RANGE

FX-HV

HORIZONTAL - VERTICAL HANDLING
The FX-HV horizontal-vertical system with its many possibilities of use covers a wide range of uses. The total height and center of gravity of the load can be adjusted via the positioning pins. For horizontal transport the system has a lifting eyelet in the rear. The metal construction is completely stabilized and painted.

FX-LT

LIFTING BEAM
The FX-LT beam adapts to the needs of rolling mills, laser cutting companies, flame, plasma, etc ... Two adjustable distance FX magnetic lifters, supported by a beam with chains, allow the loading and unloading of cutting machinery or the lifting of elements with the center out of axis. With just a few simple steps, the magnets can be removed from the main beam for single use.

FX-KT

LITTLE LIFTING BEAM
The FX-KT horizontal beam is ideal for sheet metal work and laser cutting. Two FX lifters mounted on an adjustable distance beam allow the handling of pieces. Specifically, rings and cylindrical elements.

FAQs

TECHNICAL AND OPERATING
INFORMATIONS

The contact surface between the magnetic lifter and the load must be clean and free from irregularities of any kind

A distance between the magnetic pole of the lift and the load to be moved creates an air gap. Rust, paint, dirt, paper or an irregularly worked surface can create air gaps, the force of the lifter is inversely proportional to the thickness of the air gap.

Material thickness

The path of the magnetic flux inside a piece consists of a semicircle that starts from the center of a pole of the magnetic lifter to the center of the opposite pole. If the piece is thinner than this radius, the part of the flow that comes out is dispersed and does not contribute to anchoring it. The resulting attraction will be less than what you will get when all the flow is absorbed by a piece of adequate thickness to contain it.

Load dimensions / intrinsic balance

Contact surface, thickness and length of the material to be handled are factors that influence the attraction force of a magnetic lifter. We recommend consulting our technicians to check the suitability of the lift chosen for your application.

Chemical composition of the load

The chemical composition of the load to be lifted can also influence the attraction force of a magnetic lifter, depending on its magnetic permeability. Common steels (ST37-52) with low carbon content have good magnetic permeability. Alloy steels with a content of non-ferrous components have a low magnetic permeability. Hot treatments that modify the molecular structure of steel can also reduce magnetic permeability. The more a steel is "tied", the worse the magnetic response and the higher the possibility of having residual magnetism in the piece.

Temperature of the load

As the temperature increases, the molecules of the ferromagnetic material move faster, this phenomenon causes a reduction in the magnetic conductivity of the material itself. Recommended operating temperatures are for loads up to max. 80 ° C. In the case of the FX-V lift, the max. operating temperature is 150 ° C.

Check the magnetic lifters

The FX series lifts are delivered with a manufacturer's declaration of conformity which guarantees compliance with the MD 2006/42 EC and EN 13155 standards. An additional check must be carried out for particular situations (blows, collisions, breakages) DGUV / BGR 500 / Chapter 2.8. A regular check must be carried out with a minimum annual deadline according to DGUV / BGR 500 / Section 2.8.
We will be glad to verify your magnetic lifters at our office. We are always equipped with all spare parts, in the event of breakage, the lifts will be restored quickly.
