TRUNINGER Lifting Magnet Systems

Experience makes us a natural leader

Lifting magnet technology is the most efficient solution for lifting steel. TRUNINGER lifting magnet systems impress with enormous performance and outstanding safety standards: Featuring total redundancy from controls to magnet, our innovative and exceptionally safe technology sets standards worldwide.
 

Safety built-in

Safety begins with the design of lifting beams and magnets—and here TRUNINGER is leading the way: We optimize all performance parameters for their respective application and ensure the highest functional safety through many decades of experience and the use of digital simulation techniques. Our complete lifting magnet technology is produced in-house, high vertical integration guarantees Swiss quality down to the smallest detail.

Quality pays off in many years of operation. Maintenance-free or low-maintenance products and a professional service are the core of sustainably low operating costs of TRUNINGER magnet systems. Our customers can rely on a team of globally networked specialists, supported by a comprehensive spare part service, expert repairs and certified maintenance. In addition, we offer training for company employees, both for the operation as well as the maintenance of the plant.

Why Lifting Magnet Systems?
 

Five reasons why you should count on lifting magnet technology.
  1. Improved safety: No personnel  close to moving loads.
  2. Better quality: No pressure marks or edge dents on your material.
  3. Higher storage density: No gaps between stack as well as higher stacks. 
  4. Increased productivity: Picking and placing of loads is faster by factors.
  5. Cost savings: High turnover in the warehouse with minimal use of warehouse space, time and personnel.

 

TRUNINGER benefits.
  • Very short time switching thanks to  highly integrated electronic controls.
  • Wide range of materials covered by flexible magnet and beam designs.
  • Individual switching of magnets and fine tuning of their forces allows reliable picking of partial quantities and intermediate sizes.
  • Several several traverses can also be operated on a single crane to further increase the spectrum of materials handled.
  • The design of the entire system can be redundant, from the magnet control to the cable routes to the magnets themselves, all electrical components are duplicated and mutually monitored.
  • The system is operated conveniently from the crane cab or from a radio remote control at the push of a button—this allows higher crane and handling speeds.
  • Wood and other intermediate layers can be saved.
  • Stack height limitations become obsolete: "stack height = man height" or climbing restrictions are eliminated.
  • Employees benefit from attractive workplaces thanks to high standards of comfort, safety and productivity.

 

Lifting magnet systems increase occupational safety.
  • No personnel necessary in the immediate vicinity of material handling.
  • No aisles between material stacks needed.
  • No risky climbing on material stacks.
  • No handling of sharp-edged and heavy material.

Applications

Lifting magnet systems can be found everywhere.

Whether in steel mills and steel stock holders, in the automotive industry, in logistics, in trading centres, ports or railroad stations: TRUNINGER lifting magnet systems are first choice for steel handling.
