Electro Lifting Magnets

SGM Magnetics India Pvt Ltd, a subsidiary of SGM S.p.A – Italy, offers a range of Electro Lifting Magnets for Bundles of Rolled Structural Sections and Rebar. The handling of bundles of rolled structural sections and rebar can be a dangerous task as well as a task that in many instances damage the loads since often the use of chains and slings is required. Because of these two reasons, SGM has always worked close with the steel industry to provide solutions that increase efficiency of the handling operations as well as increase safety and reduce damage to bundles of steel structural sections. Some other benefits include: eliminate the need of spacers between bundle layers; reduce labour required since a single operator can carry out the handling tasks; eliminate the required verification of wear and damage on slings and chains; increase the storage capacity by eliminating the need of walkways between bundle stacks; reduce handling time by handling up to 6 bundles at a time; and reduce the handling time since there is no need to manually attach with slings and chains the bundles. SGM electro lifting magnets are designed and sized in all their mechanical and electrical aspects in order to offer the proper response to this very demanding application, often characterised by severe mechanical shocks, high duty cycles, and possible high temperatures. The use of anodised aluminium as an electrical conductor provides these electromagnets with outstanding heat dissipation capabilities; making them extremely performing for high duty cycle and/or high temperature applications. The company has supplied hundreds of magnets worldwide to most major steel makers.
