Industry Application

Steel And Metal Handling

Plate, bar, coil and billet are handled dozens of times a day, so the handling method decides both the labour cost and the damage rate.

The Problem

Pain Points And Requirements

Industry Pain Points

  • Slinging every plate by hand takes two people and most of the cycle time
  • Soft slings burn, cut or fail in foundry, forge and hot mill conditions
  • Round and flat stock need different handling methods and different gear
  • Coated and machined surfaces are damaged by chain and wire rope

What Customers Need

  • A single operator handling method for flat plate and round bar
  • Grade 80 chain slings for hot and abrasive work
  • Soft slings for finished and coated material
  • Trolleys and hoists to move the load along a beam after the lift

Typical Application Scenarios

How The Equipment Is Actually Used

Plate handling on cutting tables

A CSmag permanent lifting magnet lets one operator place and lift plate without slinging, and it holds the load even if power fails because it needs no supply at all.

Round bar and billet movement

The prismatic base on the magnet grips round material at at least 50 percent of the flat plate capacity, so one tool covers both stock shapes.

Foundry and forge handling

Grade 80 chain slings to EN 818-2 withstand the heat and abrasion that would destroy a polyester sling.

Coated and finished material

Polyester round and flat slings lift painted, plated and machined material without marking it.

FAQ

Steel And Metal Handling FAQ

How much capacity does a lifting magnet really have on our plate?
It depends on the plate thickness and the surface roughness. Below Ra 6.3 um there is no surface gap and the capacity is 100 percent. Above that the air gap curve on the lifter gives the percentage to apply.
Which sling should we use in a foundry?
Grade 80 chain sling chain to EN 818-2. Polyester slings are not suitable for hot work.
Do you supply the sling identification tags?
Yes, in stainless steel 304, marked with the working load limit, the certificate number, the sling ID number and your logo.
