Circular Lifting Magnets

Mechanical construction of MAGWELL has high capacity lifting magnets are very sturdy to meet toughest demands in service. The one piece of magnet body is cast from high-grade dynamo steel. Underneath, between centre and outer poles, the magnet body is closed by sturdy, cast and rib-reinforced non-magnetic austenitic manganese steel plate. Fastening at the centre pole is effected by means of a shrunk-on ring, and at the outer pole by locking ring.

The standard three-fall chain suspension, designed with common suspension ring is rated to meet all normal duty load. Special change are available on request for extremely heavy loads. Two lugs for guide ropes are fitted as standard.

The Bumping plate: A strong plate made from hard, wear resistant, manganese steel protects the coil but does not interfere with the magnetic field.

The coil: This is made from Anodized strip or aluminum / copper conductor. The anodized aluminum strip requires no insulation between turns and has a much better fill factor than copper coils, which increases the load possibilities. The coil is also extremely temperature-resistant.

The design: The magnetic pole, the steel cross-section and the flow through the coil have all been precisely tailored to each other to provide optimum transport power and weight conditions.

The power supply: We deliver the appropriate power supply to every one of our magnets.

CABLE TERMINAL BOX

The cable terminal box is of robust construction to meet toughest practical service and it consists of the following parts:

• Cast compartment (back) for exciter coil connection
• Line connections from back to front compartment
• Cable collar to limit load on cable
• Terminal board for connecting the cable
• Gland bolt for sealing the cable
• Front compartment for connecting the cable
• Back and front compartment covers are fitted with watertight gaskets, secured with socket head screws
• Solid and fracture-proof protective cover made of cast steel incl. set screw. This cable terminal box is constructed for durability
