Unlock Multi-Industry Mastery: QHMAG’s Electro-Permanent Lifters for Steel Plate, Pipe & Coil Handling

2025-06-20

1. The $200k/year Cost Hidden in Plain Sight

At Benson Steel (Ohio), foreman Jim D. watched his crew struggle with 5-ton plates: "Sling hooks damaged edges, causing $3,500/scrap loss. Electromagnets? Their monthly power bill hit $14,000." This pain echoes across ports, foundries, and tube mills nationwide.

2. How QHMAG Physics Engine Redefines Heavy Lifting

Forget "magnets" – think precision flux control:

Tested: Holds 12-ton coil with 0.3mm ovality (ASTM A568). Energy use? 0.04kWh per lift – 97% less than electromagnets.

3. Industry-Specific Breakthroughs

Specific Breakthroughs

Steel Plates: Port & Shipyard Efficiency

We moved 80 plates/day → 140 with QHMAG," reports Port of Tacoma ops manager. Key gains:

Zero edge damage: Non-contact grip vs sling hooks

1-operator control: Remote pendant replaces 4-man crew

Storm-proof safety: Held loads through 3-hour outage (ASME B30.20 Log #8873)*

 

Steel Pipes: Oilfield & Construction Innovation

For Texas pipe supplier WellTech, curved V-Arc poles solved slippage:

Diameter range: 2" to 24" pipes without adapter changes

30% faster stacking: No manual chain adjustments

Mud-proof design: IP68 rating for wet job sites*

 

Steel Coils: Preventing $500k Uncoiling Disasters

One deformed coil can jam a $2M uncoiler for days," warns Detroit auto plant engineer. QHMAG’s solution:

Curved adapters: Maintain <0.5mm ovality (SAE J2744)

Edge sensors: Auto-align to coil width

EMF-free operation: No interference with RFID tags*

 

 

4. The ROI Reality Check
