The permanent Lifting Magnet is a device designed to lift objects multifold its own weight. How is this possible? This is made possible by a permanent magnet intended for the purpose of lifting substances made of steel from one place to another
Star Trace the foremost manufacturers, suppliers and exporters have devised Permanent Lifting Magnets in seven different strengths i.e. depending on the load to be picked up choice of lifting magnet will differ. This range was suggested after carefully studying the sales order from Chennai, Tamilnadu, India and world over. We also cater to specific requirements of clients when requested. The operation of the magnetic lifter is simple and can be done with ease.
Components that build the Permanent Lifting Magnet:
A powerful Neodymium magnet is safely placed in a non erosive case as a measure to protect it from wear and tear. A sturdy hook is provided on top to be used for attaching the lifting magnet to a crane or any other moving machine. A lever is provided on the side of the permanent lifting magnet which is the sole controller of magnetic activity. The entire working of magnetic lifter does not require electricity which is one of the very many saving factors.
Putting the magnetic lifter to action just involves the movement of the knob from OFF position to ON position after placing it on the object to be lifted. Skilled labour is not mandatory for the process. On bringing the knob to ON mark the magnetic field is applied and grasping of the metal plate happens. Now the role of the lifter comes into effect and relocation will be accomplished.
From our point of view as manufacturers, suppliers and exporters every manufacturing unit big or small should invest in sales of permanent lifting magnet. If one is not able to decide on the kind of permanent lifting magnet contact our sales team in Chennai, Tamilnadu, or in any of our branch office in India & abroad to know more. We will assist you in taking an informed decision.
Permanent lifting magnets are small wonders which are capable of lifting objects multi fold their weight. They are safe, efficient and time saving when compared to manual handling. Physical handling involves a lot of risk, there are possibilities of miss judgement of the load to be handled and may result in irreversible damage to humans and finished products.
On the other hand permanent lifting magnet never brings in chances of mishap, when adhering to instruction manual rules. Permanent magnetic lifter uses a powerful Neodymium magnet seated inside a fully covered case compact in nature. Magnetic activity is brought to contact with the material to be lifted upon operating a lever. Once the permanent lifting magnet is engaged to work there is perfection till completion and the lever can be brought to off position.
There are varied sizes in permanent lifting magnet. The grading of magnet is basically on their capacity to lift heavy objects. Lifting a small weight does not require a very powerful permanent lifting magnet at the same time a small permanent magnet would not be efficient enough, so great care has to be taken in choosing the right sized permanent magnetic lifter.
Construction and working:Powerful Neodymium magnet is contained in a non erosive case. On / off leaver is facilitated to engage / disengage the permanent magnet into activity. A strong hook is provided on top to attach the lifting magnet to the moving crane or any other device used for shifting. NO electricity is required for the operation.
If a low carbon steel plate has to be transported from shop floor to transportation area the steps to be followed are as follows
The Permanent Magnetic Lifter of Star Trace undergoes multi level checking to ensure quality and standards in every step of its making. Durability, excellence and cost effectiveness are our trademarks, which have contributed to our strong footing in the industry.

Magnets are used for lifting heavy steel objects from one place to another either within the manufacturing unit or for shipment. Lifting magnet is an efficient lifter of load and steel scrap, saving time and effort. It would have been a marathon task if only the lifting magnets were not put to use. There are other devices like mechanical tongs which were used for lifting but they could not match the performance of lifting magnet in terms of speed, accuracy and safety.
These lifting magnets are basically magnets which have permanent magnetic activity in them and can be used just by operating a lever. This comes in varying sizes to suite different purposes. A perm magnet is enveloped safely inside a protective covering, On operating the lever from OFF to ON position magnetic field is applied and lifting happens with the aid of a crane or any other mechanism prevalent. There are four different sizes of lifting magnet available for lifting objects of different size and dimensions. Consult with the expert team to finalize on the model that best suits your requirement.
Electro Magnet:Electro magnets are also readily available to perform lifting operation at any given point of time just by supplying electricity for a few seconds. They are very powerful in magnetic action and can be seen in lifting operations outdoors as well. Depending on the intensity of the magnetic field needed models can be chosen.
When a combination of electro and perm magnet is used the performance is better and safer. Electricity is not needed for long hours but for a few seconds to initiate and release magnetic activity.
Large circular magnets are used in scrap recovery in scrap yards, foundries and ports, their magnetic effect recover even the tiniest of ferrous active particles. Only on using the magnet you will know the amount of scrap that can be collected.
Several factors have to be considered before finalizing the selection process. They are as follows
These are only a few parameters that are mentioned as guidelines. A through and detailed discussion will bring out many angles to the requirement of lifter.
We at star Trace have designed lifter magnet in varying dimensions to suite the specific requirement of our clients for easy handling of load. Quality checks at every stage of manufacturing ensures no defaulting occurs and if by chance there are any they can be detected then and there so that there is no delay in delivery. The lifter is checked for quality at the final stage as well with the client so that any changes needed to satisfy will be adhered to.
Both magnet types can be used for lifting load & scrap but there are areas where they find specific use, for further clarification look up our pages on electro magnet lifter and permanent lifting magnet. With latest technology in place our load lifting magnets assure you of improved productivity and efficient usage of time.
