1. Scope of application
Permanent lifting magnets Type FX are made for holding and lifting ferromagnetic parts
ferromagnetic (= magnetically behaving as iron), the application limits must be observed.
The lifting magnets are made compact, easy to use, safe and reliable and have strong magnetic forces. Use
of lifting magnets can simplify operations and the times are reduced during loading and unloading.
Therefore, the devices are suitable for lifting in many areas such as in the manufacturing industry, in
shipyards, warehouses, transport and conveyor technology. Usually lifting magnets are used on cranes, but
can also be used on other machines such as forklifts and excavators.
Our guide only regulates the use of lifting magnets, danger by the hoist can not be covered in this
