Magnetic Transport
Well-designed, magnetic lifting equipment allows for enormous gains in agility when moving ferrous loads. They use magnetic force, generated by magnets or coils, to attract ferrous material. Activation is instantaneous. Simply press a button on the crane panel or turn a lever and that's it: the load is secured securely and can be taken from one side to another without damaging the contact surface. Recently, with the “invention” of new magnetic materials, some equipment has had its dimensions substantially reduced and, in the same way, prices and the value of the investment necessary to implement a load handling system using magnetic equipment have fallen. There are several types! They vary not only in size, polarity, etc., but also in how the “magnetic field” is generated.
