Applications of electromagnet crane for steel wire rod handling

The electromagnetic overhead cranes can be used for various applications main including

• Handling of single and multiple wire rod coils , cold and hot steel wire rod coils
• Wire rod loading and unloading of trucks, railway wagons or ships
• Wire rod coil storage in warehouse or deports

Magnetic crane systems for handling single & multiple hot or cold wire rods.

With the development of technology, it is now also possible to design 2-magnet or 4-magnet solutions by placing several magnets next to one another or one behind the other.Because of this, multiple steel wire rope coils handling at once are possible which can drastically cut down on operation time and improve efficiency.Bundles of wire rods can be moved both vertically and horizontally.These magnetic beam overhead cranes and gantry cranes are also utilized in wire rod bundle loading, undloading, stroage,etc.

In a single lifting operation, a single or a number of coils can be swiftly transported using one or more magnets on a spreader beam. Hot lifting magnets can be particularly made to allow the transportation of coilshot temperature.

Overhead cranes for warehouse/ steel services centers

Wire coil handling magnetic bridge cranes and gantry cranes  are widely used in warehouses/steel service centers. With lifting magnet or magnetic beam spreader, the overhead cranes enable users to save considerable time in handling single or bundles of wire rod coils. Several Steel Wire Rod Coils can be stacked vertically and horizontally. If the coils are rigid enough, no intervals between them are required.

Wire rod coil crane magnetic lifters

Electric lifting magnets, which were developed as an alternative to lifting hooks, may grip the wire rod or bundle from the top without injuring the material and effortlessly move it to the required area.

Once the wire rods were safely in the ship's hold, the cargo was remotely released using the remote controller, which keeps the worker at a safe distance during the loading and unloading operation. Only one operator is required to engage the load, reducing dangers throughout the procedure. Because the load was disengaged remotely by remote control, no employees were required inside the ship's hold.

Added benefits are as following :

• Much more efficient handling in port operations than cranehooks.
• Magnet lifting capacity can be individually built to meet the exact demands of your load.
• Because of their compact design, they can be utilized for a variety of applications at ports without requiring any changes to their parameters.
• The remote controllable capability makes unloading procedures safer.

Main advantages of magnetic steel wire rods:

• The lifted material is not harmed in any way by handling with magnetic systems.
• Because the staff designated to handle the load does not have to sling the load, handling safety improves while labor costs decrease dramatically.
• Costs associated with logistics are decreased while handling speed increases.
• The usage of warehouse space is maximized, increasing the amount of available volumes.

Electromagnetic beam spreader

The electromagnets can also be produced in aversion with a double redundant coil. This guarantees that the second coil will be able to hold the load safely even if one of the two coils or its power cord should fail. You can utilize the electromagnets by themselves or under beams.

Magnetic beams can include:

• Fixed,
• Motorized extensible, or passive telescopic, depending on the coils' center distance.
• Our electrical equipment powers the electromagnets from the power supply.

Types of lifting electromagnets produced by our company include round lifting electromagnets for steel scrap handling, electromagnet beams for hanlding steel plates, steel pipes, heavy rail profile steel, steel coil, and other metal products, etc. If you have any need, please feel free to contact us.

Magnetic lifter vs c hook steel wire rod lifter

Wire rod magnets have been developed as an alternative to C-type hooks; they efficiently move the wire rod bundle to the required area while grabbing the bundle from the top. Additionally, magnetic systems enable more effective use of the space that would otherwise be consumed during operation by the C-type hook. There is no requirement for additional manpower or additional room for the hook during the loading and unloading of trucks and wagons.

Only electromagnets with strong magnetic fields are used in this application.For this purpose, electro permanent magnets are inappropriate. Even larger wire rod bundles that are incorrectly packed may be transported byutilizing a strong magnetic system.Transporting one bundle or two bundles side by side with a combined length of up to 5m is simple.

When compared to stockyards that use Chooks, those that use magnetic systems can operate with a lot less wasted space between the wire rod bundles.According to published studies, magnetic systems could increase the efficiency of stockyards and warehouses by 40%.

C hook for bundled steel wire rope coil handling 

Wire rod coil handling magnet cranes are intended to properly handle both loosely and tightly banded wire rodbundles with a horizontal axis. The use of this magnet provides the following benefits:

• Ropes or C-hooks are not required, and the bundles will not be damaged (dented). If a C-hook damages the wire rod during the drawing process, it can break.
• All of the work can be done by the overhead crane operatoralone.
• There is no need for additional personnel in the storage area because the bundles can be stacked vertically up to maximum height in the shortest area, increasing safety.

The size of crane magnet or magnetic beam can be designed based on the length of the wire rod bundles.Several different bundles can be taken during a single lifting operation if the magnet is long enough. Magnets for handling wire bundlesare appropriately and robustly manufactured. The contoured outer poles and the center pole are appropriate for the various bundle diameters.

Things to consider when choosing wire rod magnets

• Minimum and maximum wire rod bundle widths.
• Inner and outer diameters of wire rod bundles, minimum and maximum.
• Preference for vertical versus horizontal loading.
• The material's temperature.
• Crane lifting power.
• Details about the wire rod bundle.
