A magnetic beam with a fixed length provides an advantageous and suitable solution for most plate lifting operations. When attached to a crane with two lifting hooks, it can be used for uncentred lifting of plates. Magnetic beams are also available for single-hook cranes.
Our magnetic beams for plates use strong rectangular magnets, which allow the quick and easy lifting of heavy plates.
Beams for plates and cut pieces come with round magnets, which make it possible to lift and sort cut pieces and parts of plates of various sizes and shapes in conjunction with plasma cutting.
Standard beams are available in the Optima series and the Integra series. In the Optima series, the control is located in the overhead crane beam, and in the Integra series, the control center is integrated into the magnetic lift frame.

Magnets that are precisely dimensioned to suit the application speed up gripping operations and the separation of plates
A branched-chain suspension of magnets minimizes the swinging of the load
Simple structure improves visibility
Easy-to-notice signalling devices and clear notifications increase safety
The robust structure and high-quality surface finish ensure that the beam can withstand heavy-duty use and challenging conditions
The standard series offers an affordable and appropriate alternative for most plate handling applications. Standard-length beams are a suitable solution when the plates to be lifted are of standard size.
We also design and manufacture magnetic lifting beams customized for our clients’ needs.
Skanveir’s magnetic lifting beams can be equipped with motorized turning of the magnets or the beam and motorized telescopic extensions.
The control system designed by Skanveir is capable of controlling the magnets individually, in groups or all magnets simultaneously. The advantages offered by the control unit include high usability, easy maintenance, reliability, and safety in all circumstances.
Skanveir’s control units are produced with components that are commonly available; therefore, a qualified electrician can service them. An isolated failure or user error, such as control voltage failure or changes in the control settings, does not result in dropping of the load during lifting. Power supply during a voltage failure is ensured with maintenance-free lead batteries.
Electromagnets offer a lifting capacity superior to that of permanent and electropermanent magnets. Electromagnets create a strong and deep magnetic field, managing well even when there is a large air gap.
The advantages also include a low ratio of equipment weight to lifting capacity, adjustable lifting force, and quick grip and release operations.
Skanveir’s precisely dimensioned magnets are capable of separating plates as thin as 3 mm.
