Eriez's new XPL SafeHold Permanent Lifting Magnets allow users to lift either round or flat materials using the same magnet. Constructed with Erium 3000 rare earth magnet material, the four new magnets in the SafeHold line are small, lightweight, and feature a powerful magnetic force. The two-pole design provides lifting versatility and enables the user to lift flat materials up to 2,400 pounds and round materials up to 1,600 pounds. These innovative magnets can lift and transfer steel and iron without slings, hooks, or cables. When properly installed and operated, XPL magnets can provide greater safety than other mechanical material handling devices. Several SafeHold magnets can be combined to conform to the specific shape and weight of complex work pieces. The XPL series is suitable for many machine shop operations, including the loading and uploading of the machining center. With its internal on/off changeover mechanism, there is no scratching of the work surface when loading/unloading.
