Heavy lift magnets and systems

ELECTRO-PERMANENT

Electro-Permanent
Walker has been designing and manufacturing Electro-Permanent devices since 1960. These magnets utilize permanent magnet material surrounded by an electrically powered coil.

STEEL MILL MAGNETS

HEATMASTER STEEL MILL MAGNETS

Move Hot Steel Directly from the Cooling Bed with No Downtime

THE HEATMASTER
Time spent waiting for hot steel to cool down so it can be moved is wasted time. So is time spent handling steel with mechanical methods. With Heatmaster^® Steel Mill Magnets, there's no wasted time. Hot steel can be moved quickly and easily, from the moment it leaves the casting bed.

GRABBER SERIES

Billet Lifting and Bundle Handling Magnets

THE GRABBER
Because billets are seldom perfectly straight or flat, air gaps often exist between the billets to be lifted and the magnet. Walker Grabber Series billet lifting magnets have extra power built in to penetrate the air gaps for a more efficient, more certain grip every time. That means they can handle more billets per lift, day in and day out, eliminating multiple lifts per layer.

MILLMASTER SERIES

MILLMASTER® "W" SERIES
Fabricated Case, Aluminum or Copper Coil Standard Field, Deep-Field, and Extra Deep-Field Models

MILLMASTER® "D" SERIES
Steel Mill Magnets - Cast Case, Aluminum or Copper Coil Standard Field, Deep-Field, and Extra Deep-Field Models

COILMASTER SERIES

COILMASTER SERIES
Magnetic lifting is the easiest, fastest and most economical method of handling coiled strip steel. Traditional mechanical lifting devices can damage several layers of in the process of gripping the coil, and damage can also take place when the coil is released. Properly designed lift magnets virtually eliminate the possibility of damage.

CUTTING TABLE MAGNETS

Special Purpose Scrap Handling and Track Sweeping

TC SERIES - TOTAL COVERAGE MAGNET
The New Total-Coverage Series Magnets (TC-Series Demo) by Walker are designed to meet the special material handling needs required in precision flame, plasma and laser cutting table operations.

CUTTING TABLE LIFTING SYSTEMS
Walker custom engineered magnetic lifting systems allow more efficient handling of plates, pieces and skeletons for your cutting table operations. Walker systems increase cutting operator speeds in many cases ranging from 65% to 400%. This efficiency yields greater output of cut parts.

BI-POLAR SERIES

Material Handling Bi-Polar Lift Magnets with Copper Coils

BI-POLAR SERIES Models 271,272
Bi-Polar magnets lift directly from the center of the load, so no aisle room is required to sling or maneuver a hook into the eye. Loads can be stacked as high as the crane allows.

Bi-Polar lift magnets can be used individually or in multiples with various types of suspension systems. We engineer and supply the complete system, including power supply, controls, battery backup unit and spreader beams.
