 Magnetic Sheet Lifters
 
The Magnetic Sheet/Plate Lifter de-stacks steel sheets from pallets, racks and more. The unique design of this permanent magnetic lifting system allows one person to safely and effectively move and load sheets onto cutting tables, shear beds and other fabrication equipment. The Magnetic Sheet/Plate Lifter features a series of adjustable position permanent magnetic lifting heads to lift a wide variety of sheet lengths and widths. These permanent magnets require a simple burst of shop air to release the sheets/plates.
 
Applications
  • Loading cutting tables, shears, welding cells, etc
  • Moving steel sheets or plates from pallets or racks to a work station

Benefits
  • Reliability of a permanent magnet with the On/Off capabilities of an electromagnet
  • Only requires shop air to attach or release the magnet, not during the lift
  • Failsafe design (No battery backup required)
  • Adjustable magnet positions lift a wide variety of sheet lengths and widths
  • Won't drop load during power outage or system air loss
  • No heat build-up

Operation Requirements
  • Minimum sheet size: 4' x 6'
  • Maximum sheet size: 5' x 12'
  • Minimum shop air pressure of input of 80 psi

 Magnetic Tube Lifters
 
IMI's new Magnetic Tube Lifter is designed to assist in stacking, destacking, loading and unloading for a variety of tube and pipe applications. This is a permanent magnet that requires a simple burst of shop air to release the row of tube or pipe. In the result of a loss of shop air, the Tube Lifter is designed to remain in a "failure safe" mode, without the need for a battery backup system; simply put, the magnet will not drop the tube or pipe, ensuring safer working conditions. The Tube Lifter is ideal for hydroforming, roll-forming, packing, cutting or tube and pipe fabrication applications.
 
Benefits
  • Works on round, square & custom shaped tubing
  • Operates on shop air from 60 to 80 psi
  • Destacks nested tubing
  • Reduces cycle times in many tube handling applications
  • Failsafe design (No battery backup required)

Features
  • Powerful, rare earth magnetic circuit
  • Stainless steel housing
  • 100mm air cylinders with 3/8" NPT ports
  • Bearing guided cylinder shafts
  • Unique magnetic circuit prevents tubes from rolling or shifting during transport

Options
  • Available with custom cylinders, magnetic circuits and pick-up points
  • Spreader system for mounting magnets
  • Protective magnet covers for polished, plated & painted tubing
