MULTI-POINT / LONG STEEL
Magnetic Lifting Beam for Steel Plate and Sections
Lift long ferrous loads with multiple magnets supported by a beam rather than concentrating the load at one point. Beam length, suspension, magnet spacing and control zones follow the actual steel size and stiffness. The quotation should show the load from pickup to set-down, including sag, overhang, total beam mass and the crane's hook coverage.

- ORDER BASIS
- Approved load drawing
Send plate or section drawings, grades and thicknesses, maximum length and weight, acceptable sag, pickup points, crane hook data and site power supply.
01
One-unit enquiries welcome
The selected attachment's minimum order and supply scope are confirmed in the written offer.
02
Crane and attachment checked together
Review the loaded attachment, connection, operating cycle and site clearances before approval.
03
Clear delivery and support scope
Agree inspection, documents, packing, schedule, site support and warranty before order placement.
01 / SPECIFICATIONS
Start with the load geometry and support points.
Each beam must be sized to its workpiece and crane. The selected drawing should settle these linked parameters before production.

| Parameter | Buyer input | Selected-unit confirmation |
|---|---|---|
| Load envelope | Length, width, thickness and weight | Approved maximum/minimum workpiece |
| Material | Steel grade, coatings and temperature | Magnetic contact performance |
| Beam geometry | Pickup clearance and crane hook position | Length, suspension and headroom |
| Magnet layout | Allowed sag and overhang | Number and centre spacing |
| Controls | One load or multiple zones | Grouped or independent switching |
| Crane capacity | Hook rating and lifting height | Beam, magnets, rigging and steel |
| Site operation | Pickup/placement and cycle | Controls, power loss and test plan |
Capacity is conditional on the specific plate or section, surface contact, temperature and support pattern. Include the beam, magnets and rigging in the crane's total suspended load.
Why not use one large round magnet?
A long or flexible steel load can sag and peel away from a single contact point. Multiple magnets spaced along a lifting beam can support the load more evenly, but the final spacing and safe load need a drawing and trial for the actual material.

02 / APPLICATIONS
Hold long steel through its complete travel path.
01
Steel-plate stockyards
Pick and place plate with support points planned to limit excessive overhang, bending and contact loss.
02
Fabrication lines
Move sections between cutting, machining and assembly positions while keeping the workpiece orientation controlled.
03
Warehouse and dispatch
Lift known lengths into storage or vehicles with enough hook coverage, set-down clearance and a controlled power-loss procedure.
Only suitable ferrous loads should be considered. Flexible plate and coated surfaces must be evaluated for real contact and sag, not a catalogue force figure alone. Compare the matching crane system.
03 / CONFIGURATION
Choose the attachment around the actual lift.
Start with the longest, shortest and heaviest steel pieces that must be lifted. Set magnet number and spacing, beam length, suspension points and power supply for the least favourable load geometry, then confirm the approved lift on a project drawing.
04 / QUOTATION SCOPE
Compare a complete attachment package.
Equipment price, crane modifications and site services should be separated so your team knows what is supplied and what remains to be done locally.
Beam and magnets
List the beam structure, magnet count and centres, suspension gear and complete self-weight.
Power and control
Define the control cabinet, cable management, switching zones and power-loss response.
Proof and handover
Agree load cases, trial lifts, drawings, test records, packing and on-site integration responsibilities.
05 / ORDERING & DELIVERY
Approve the selected unit before manufacture.
The offer should connect your load data to one drawing, one equipment schedule and a clear inspection and handover plan. Production and freight dates are confirmed for that selected configuration.

Questions to settle before buying.
Use these answers to prepare one technical and commercial brief for the selected unit.
Discuss this attachmentDoes a longer beam automatically lift heavier loads?
No. Length changes bending and support forces. The safe load depends on the selected beam, magnet spacing, steel contact and crane rating.
Can it lift thin plate without bending?
Only after the plate thickness, length, sag limit and support points are checked. More evenly distributed magnets may be necessary.
Can all magnets switch together?
That is one option. The control logic can be defined around the load range, but every permitted mode needs an approved loading and test case.
What if one magnet loses power?
The selected design must define detection, operating restrictions and safe set-down response. Do not assume the remaining magnets can carry the full load.
What site dimensions are needed?
Provide hook height and approach, pickup and set-down zones, bay clearances, load lengths, vehicle height and available electrical supply.
