With over 70 years of experience and a global leadership position in lifting magnets, SGM Magnetics offers a comprehensive range of magnetic spreader beam solutions. Our designs are tailored to specific applications such as steel mills, ports, and service centers, and are compatible with various crane configurations including single hoist, single trolley with dual hoists, and dual trolleys with independent hoists. Extendable spreader beams are available in manual or motorized versions, with optional motorized rotation. We also provide specialized spreader beams designed for quick, remote changeovers. All SGM magnet spreader beams are engineered to comply with the latest industry regulations and standards. Multi-Beam Solution for Long Product Handling Steel mills handling long products such as rebar and structural steel often face challenges related to warehouse space optimization and operational inefficiencies. SGM’s multi-beam solution addresses these challenges with a modular approach, allowing for the flexible handling of various load lengths while reducing stress on cranes and increasing safety. How It Works An SGM interface beam connects to multiple sub-beams, each tailored to specific load handling needs. Similar to a machine tool changer, this system allows seamless beam exchanges without manual intervention. The beam-switching process is hands-free, managed by a single operator from the crane cabin, via remote control, or through full automation. The transition between beams takes only 30 seconds, significantly improving operational efficiency. Key Benefits - Optimized Warehouse Space & Crane Efficiency: Handling varied load lengths with a fixed-length beam often wastes warehouse space and places additional stress on crane ropes and hoists. SGM’s multi-beam system allows operators to use shorter beams for shorter loads, maximizing warehouse storage by placing loads in tighter spaces while reducing mechanical wear on the crane system. - Enhanced Safety & Operational Efficiency: Traditional fixed-beam switching methods require manual hook exchanges and electrical connections, leading to: - Risk of hand injuries when manually exchanging crane hooks. - Arc-flash hazards when operators forget to turn off magnets before reconnecting. - Increased downtime due to reliance on maintenance personnel for manual beam changes. SGM’s automated multi-beam switching system eliminates these risks, ensuring a safer, faster, and more efficient handling process with minimal downtime.
