Example mm:
You would like to lift a plate which is 6 mm thick and made of S235. The plate stands vertically, i.e. at an angle
of 90°, in your shelf rack and your magnet is ideally positioned, as shown in figure 1.
Material thickness:
Material:
Alignment of the load: 90° tilted; load hook facing upwards
Example INCH:
You would like to lift a plateof mild Cold Rolled Steel (CRS) which is 1/4 inch thick. The plate stands vertically, i.e.
at an angle of 90°, in your shelf rack and your magnet is ideally positioned, as shown in figure 1.
Material thickness:
Material:
Alignment of the load: 90° tilted; load hook facing upwards
Maximum load weight with 3:1 safety factor= 320 kg x 100 % x 30 % = 86.4 kg
Maximum load weight with 3:1 safety factor= 700 lbs x 100 % x 30 % = 192 lbs
Adjustable Shock Absorber
An oil filled shock absorber is incorporated on the backside of the magnet in order to absorb any recoil energy of
the lever. The thinner the material to be lifted the higher the recoil energy to be absorbed. The set screw on the
backside of the magnet makes it possible to adjust the shock absorber variably, so that the upward movement of
the lever is controlled and operates smoothly. This adjustment should be made by using a flat-blade screwdriver.
6 mm max. load-bearing capacity at 0° = 288 kg (see table 2)
S235 holding force, subject to material = 100 % (see table 1)
Load-figure corresponding to direction = 30 %
1/4 inch max. load-bearing capacity at 0° = 640 lbs (see table 2)
mild steelholding force, subject to material = 100 % (see table 1)
load-figure corresponding to direction = 30 %
