Electromagnets and Power Supplies

Power Supplies

Electromagnets must be able to release ferrous objects as readily as they attract and hold them. Release is the function of the Power Supply – not the magnet. Power Supplies render a reverse current that ensures positive release of even those alloy steels that retain induced magnetism extremely well. All Bunting® Power Supplies are designed to provide D.C. power for industrial electromagnets.

 

Note: Total wattage of all magnets powered by a single Bunting Power Supply must not exceed the wattage rating of the Power Supply. For example, one to five 3-watt magnets can be used with a 15-watt Power Supply.

Rectangular Electromagnets, Flat-Faced

Rectangular, Strong Electromagnets

 

Electromagnets from BuyMagnets.com offer a way to handle ferrous materials that is not only safe and secure, but also efficient and economical. A rectangular flat-faced electromagnet allows you to control the strength of the electrical current running through it. This allows the magnetic field to be manipulated rapidly between a wide range of values. Rectangular flat-faced electromagnets require very little maintenance, and are suitable for use in many different manual and automated applications.

 

Note: Electromagnets operate as holding magnets when they come in direct contact with ferrous materials, they will not attract or repel ferrous materials when placed at a distance.

Rectangular flat-faced electromagnets are available from BuyMagnets.com in six different standard varieties. Width options range from 1.5” to 4.” Length options range from 1.5” to 8.” Height options range from 1.25” to 2.5.” The holding force of these electromagnets ranges from 100lbs to 2000lbs. Upon request, we are able to provide our customers with special sizes.

 

It is best to use rectangular flat-faced electromagnets with surfaces that are flat, smooth, and dry. When the entire face of the rectangular flat-faced electromagnet is allowed to come into direct contact with the product that is being handled, it is able to achieve its maximum holding force. These rectangular flat-faced electromagnets are designed with a center magnetic pole, and use their outer casing as an opposite pole. This concentrates the magnetic force at the center of the magnet, and results in superior holding power.

 

All rectangular flat-faced electromagnets from BuyMagnets.com are durable and built to last. Our electromagnets provide a simple, efficient alternative to mechanical holding devices and facilitate automation of tasks within your facility. Electromagnets do not produce any waste by-product, and do not have any moving parts, springs, or valves that run the risk of wearing out. A low-maintenance electromagnet allows you to easily, quickly, and safely move large and heavy ferrous materials, such as large metal sheets, throughout your facility with ease.

 

All electromagnets from BuyMagnets.com are 100% duty cycle.

Round Electromagnets, Flat-Faced

Strong, Small Electromagnets – 100% Duty Cycle

 

An electromagnet from BuyMagnets.com provides you with a solution for handling ferrous materials that is safe, secure, economical, and efficient. Round flat-faced electromagnets give you the ability to control the strength of the electrical current running through the magnet at any given time. The ability to control the electrical current’s strength means that the magnetic field can be rapidly manipulated between a broad range of values. Round flat-faced electromagnets are suitable for use in a wide variety of manual and automated applications. These electromagnets require minimal maintenance.

 

Note: Electromagnets operate as holding magnets when they come in direct contact with ferrous materials, they will not attract or repel ferrous materials when placed at a distance.

Round flat-faced electromagnets are available in thirteen standard options from BuyMagnets.com. Diameter options range from 0.50” to 6.” Height options range from 0.75” to 3.” The holding force of these electromagnets ranges from 4lbs to 1000lbs. If you have a special request, we also have the ability to supply you with special custom sizes.

 

For best results, it is recommended to use round flat-faced electromagnets on surfaces that are smooth, flat, and dry. A round flat-faced magnet is able to achieve its maximum holding force when the entire face of the magnet is permitted to come into direct contact with the product being handled. Round flat-faced electromagnets are designed with a center magnetic pole, and use their outer casing as an opposite pole. This design is able to concentrate magnetic force at the center of the magnet, and the result is superior holding power.

 

Every round flat-faced electromagnet from BuyMagnets.com is durable and built to last. Round flat-faced electromagnets are able to facilitate automation of tasks within your facility and provide an alternative to mechanical holding devices that is simple, safe, and efficient. Electromagnets do not have any moving parts, such as springs or valves, that are at risk of running out. Additionally, electromagnets do not produce any waste by-product. Low-maintenance electromagnets facilitate easy transfer of large and heavy ferrous materials.
