Lifting Magnets Vs Vacuum Lifters
Description
Why choose lifting magnets? Or why opt for a vacuum lifter? In the article below we explain why we recommend using a vacuum lifting over magnetic lifting. Complete control Unlike a vacuum lifter, a magnet lifter is able to lift a stack of metal plates at once. However, the upper plate is safely attached, but the other plates are an overload and could come off. Creating an unsafe lifting situation. Vacuum lifting is precise, safe and offers complete control during the complete handling process. Increased lifting capacity A magnet lifter is extremely heavy due to the heavy backup system. In comparison a vacuum lifter is light as a feather. The big difference in weight results in the possibility to increase the lifting capacity (maximum lifting capacity of the crane = weight of the metal plate + weight of the lifter). If you decrease the weight of the lifter, it means you can lift heavier plates.

The complete lifting solution we designed for inside a tunnel boring machine (TBM) consists of two vacuum lifters. The first vacuum lifter transports the tunnel segments and keystones to the segment feeder of the erector. To meet the erector’s position the suction pad is able to rotate 90 degrees during the transport. Vacuum lifter as part of the erector The second vacuum lifter operates as part of the erector and perfectly matches the interface of the TBM. To meet every required position the lifter is able to turn 360 degrees.

Looking for handling equipment for your pipeline project? Use the Aerolift pipe handling equipment. Our custom-made lifting solutions are used for every part of the lifting process of line pipes. During production, storage, internal transport, transhipment, construction of the pipelines and even offshore. Improve the safe work environment Pipe lifting is often done by slings or hooks. Both methods which require manual attachment and detachment. This is no problem on ground level, but what if the line pipes are stacked up to several meters high? Someone must climb the stack, which is a very dangerous situation with great risk to life and limb. All Aerolift pipe handling equipment is designed to rule out this risk. Improving the safety of the work environment tremendously. However, this is not the only benefit. Most Aerolift lifting solutions are based on vacuum lifting technology. In our opining is vacuum handling the best lifting method there is.
