Pivoting Or Vertical Lifting Of Loads - ALFRA TML 100 Manual De Instrucciones

Pivoting or vertical lifting of loads

The special design of the TML 100 lifting magnet allows the user to turn and pivot the load freely. The suspended
load can be turned around at 360° and pivoted at up to 90°.
1. Be sure to use a flexible soft eye to avoid jamming the lifting magnetinto the hook of the crane.Otherwise
thisleads to extremely unfavorable load conditions and the lifting capacity would nolonger be assured. In addition,
you protect your magnet from damage and extend his lifetime by using a soft eye.
2. If the load is attachedhorizontally to the magnet, the entirebreakaway forceof the lifting magnet is acting on the
load, so you can use 100% of the lifting capacity as stated in table 2 (page 21). However, if load and magnet
surface tilt at an angle other than 0° to horizontal, the load-bearingcapacity decreases due to the new alignment
of the magnet to the gravity of Earth.As soon as the load is suspended vertically, i.e. at an angle of 90°, friction
will be the only effect exertedby the magnet which is not more than 10 – 35% of the maximum load-bearing
capacity,depending on the material being lifted.
You can calculate the maximum load-bearing capacity of your magnet, including the 3:1 safety factor, on the basis
of the load-figure that corresponds to the direction.
