Lifting Magnets

Elektromag offers a wide range of lifting magnets. Lifting magnets and magnetic separators manufactured in India have been traditionally wound with fibreglass or nomex covered aluminium or copper wire or strip. This covering material keeps the turns insulated. However, these insulating materials absorb moisture and deteriorate from heat, shock and age. They eventually break down causing a costly burn out of the magnet coil. Furthermore, Copper tends to oxidise at high temperatures and may fail beyond 220°C. This is virtually impossible for anodised aluminium strip as there is no interturn insulating material when anodised aluminium is used as the conductor. Effectively, it can be considered as superior to Class C insulation (220°C final temperature). Elektromag has commissioned its own continuous coil anodising line at Vapi in Gujarat, India, with technology acquired from Germany. Most of the Electromagnet Coils supplied by Elektromag is made with Anodized Aluminium Strip (not Wire). This is a new and unique way to maximize magnetism generated by Coils inside the Magnet. Elektromag has supplied / repaired hundreds of anodized aluminium wound electromagnets in India / Abroad. Many customers have been placing repeat orders and insisting only on supply of anodized aluminium coil.
