Magnetic Lifter

About Magnetic Lifter

A 2000 kg magnetic lifter is a permanent magnetic lifting device designed to pick up and move steel plates, blocks, beams, cylinders, and other ferromagnetic materials up to a rated lifting capacity of 2000 kg (2 tonnes) without electricity. Machineto+1

These magnets use high-strength permanent magnets (typically Neodymium NdFeB) to provide a strong magnetic force. They are manually operated by turning a handle or lever that switches the magnet on/off and engages or disengages the magnetic circuit. 

Typical Features & Specifications

Core Specifications

• Rated Lifting Capacity: 2000 kg (flat steel surface) Magnetic Lifter
  (Capacity on curved/cylindrical surfaces is often lower e.g., ~600900 kg) Inaithiram

• No Electricity Required: Operates wholly with permanent magnetic force. Machineto

• Manual Handle/Lever: Turns to engage/disengage the magnet. Magnetic Lifter

• Safety Factor: Commonly 3:1 safety coefficient, meaning pull-off force is several times higher than the rated load for safety. Machineto

• Material: NdFeB (Neodymium Iron Boron) magnets inside a steel body for durability. Machineto

• Operating Temp: Typically up to around 80 C. Inaithiram

Typical Dimensions & Weight

Models vary, but many 2000 kg lifters weigh ~6080 kg and have a footprint of 300450 mm long, 150230 mm wide, and 170380 mm tall (plus handle).
