Magnetic lifting solutions across industries

Steel Mill Operations

From the melt shop to the shipping dock, Impagnettl magnets handle every stage of steel production. Slab tongs replacement with rectangular magnets reduces cycle time and eliminates marking on finished surfaces. Coil handling magnets with V-groove faces securely lift banded and unbanded coils without damage.

Our high-temperature magnets operate reliably in reheat furnace areas and hot rolling mill environments where ambient temperatures exceed 200°F.

Scrap & Recycling Yards

Scrap processing demands equipment that survives impact, abrasion, and weather. Impagnettl scrap magnets feature cast manganese bottoms, reinforced coil protection, and sealed electrical connections. Stationary magnetic separators remove ferrous material from conveyor streams.

Structural Fabrication

Beam and plate handling in fabrication shops benefits from permanent magnet lifters for quick, one-person loading of CNC plasma and oxy-fuel cutting tables. Electro magnets on overhead cranes move finished assemblies to welding stations and paint booths without slings or hooks.

Automotive & Appliance

Stamping plant blank handling, press loading, and die change operations use compact electro magnets integrated into robotic and gantry systems. We supply magnets with precise pick-and-place control interfaces compatible with major automation platforms.

Case Study: Gulf Coast Steel Service Center

A major steel service center in Houston replaced chain sling bundle handling with Impagnettl IPR-8000 rectangular magnets on two 20-ton overhead cranes. Result: 40% reduction in cycle time per load, elimination of surface marking complaints, and improved operator safety with remote magnet control from the crane cab.

Case Study: Port of Galveston Terminal

Intermodal steel product handling at a Gulf Coast port required weather-resistant magnets rated for outdoor salt-air environments. Impagnettl supplied IPL-15000 round magnets with marine-grade coatings and sealed junction boxes, operating reliably through two hurricane seasons without downtime.

Case Study: Oklahoma Fabrication Shop

A structural steel fabricator handling beams up to 40 feet long deployed a four-magnet spreader beam system with IPR-5000 units. The system reduced a two-person rigging operation to single-operator crane control, cutting beam loading time from 8 minutes to under 2 minutes per piece.
