FX SERIES MAGNETIC TRUSSES

FX SERIES MAGNETIC TRUSSES

The FX series magnetic lifting trusses represent the ideal solution for the safe and efficient handling of sheets, rings, and cylindrical components in industrial environments such as laser cutting centers, plasma cutting facilities, and rolling mills. Designed to provide maximum operational flexibility, they can be quickly adapted to different load requirements and workpiece geometries. The available versions allow both the lifting of off-center loads and the precise handling of components such as rings and cylindrical parts, thanks to permanent magnets adjustable along the beam. The option to configure or use the magnets individually makes these systems extremely versatile and practical.

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

Complete Range FX PERMANENT MAGNETIC TRUSSES

Permanent magnetic trusses

FX LT

Magnetic lifting beam from 600 to 4800 kg
FX LT are suitable for the needs of sheet metal transformers, laser and flame cutters. Two FX-VV lifting magnets and a lightweight truss with two-hanger chain allow the horizontal handling of larger workpieces. The magnets can be removed from the truss in a few simple steps to lift small formats with just one magnet.

Available Products FX LT
FX KT

Magnetic lifting beam from 240 to 480 kg
FX KT lift parts that cannot be picked up with a magnet in the center, such as rings and flanges. Two FX magnets with adjustable center distance, mounted on a high-strength aluminum truss, ensure a secure hold. With a few simple steps the magnets can be removed from the truss and used individually.

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.
