Here, we&#8217;re going to make a comparison of their pros and cons of each type.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Disadvantages of Permanent Lifting Magnet<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As this type of magnets are made of hard materials and are permanently magnetized, the strength of the magnetic field line is constant. And because of that, permanent lifting magnets tend to <span style=\"color: #800080;\">corrode<\/span> with time. The strength of the maximum magnetic field is, thus, <span style=\"color: #800080;\">reduced.<\/span> You cannot vary the poles of the permanent magnet.<br \/>\nOn the long run, the permanent magnet would always <span style=\"color: #800080;\">loose some of its magnetic property after several operations<\/span> ending up with a dysfunctional system. In addition, we can produce the magnetic field of a permanent magnet ONLY below a certain temperature. Therefore, we cannot use this type of magnets for hot-device applications.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Disadvantages of Electric Lifting Magnet<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As electromagnets need a power source to get energized, and require <span style=\"color: #800080;\">a continous supply of current<\/span> <span style=\"color: #800080;\">during work<\/span>, they tend to get hot due to current flow through the windings. That is to say, electric lifting magnets take a lot of energy to use and will <span style=\"color: #800080;\">heat up very fast<\/span>. If cranked up to high it could be dangerous. This may, at some point in time, affect the magnets and its field due to various factors like ohmic heating, Inductive voltage spikes, core losses, the coupling of coils, etc. Moreover, there is radiation that comes from electromagnetism.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Disadvantages of Electro-Permanent Lifting Magnet<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As an electrically controlled or switched lifting magnets, electro-permanent lifting magnet&#8217;s magnetic flux penetrates not far away from its poles. And it&#8217;s very sensitive to the air gap between the magnet and the load to be lifted. The lifting capacity decreases dramatically as the air gap increases. Therefore, electro-permanent lifting magnet should not be good for some loads which have UNEVEN or ROUGH surface. Beside, it costs a bit more than permanent and electro magnets.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_55\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-55\" style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-55\" src=\"http:\/\/www.hvrmagnet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Lifting-Magnet-Handling-Steel-Plate-HVR-MAG.jpg\" alt=\"Electro-permanent Lifting Magnet Handling Steel Plate - HVR MAG\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1039\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hvrmagnet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Lifting-Magnet-Handling-Steel-Plate-HVR-MAG.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.hvrmagnet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Lifting-Magnet-Handling-Steel-Plate-HVR-MAG-300x162.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.hvrmagnet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Lifting-Magnet-Handling-Steel-Plate-HVR-MAG-1024x554.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.hvrmagnet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Lifting-Magnet-Handling-Steel-Plate-HVR-MAG-768x416.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.hvrmagnet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Lifting-Magnet-Handling-Steel-Plate-HVR-MAG-1536x831.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.hvrmagnet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Lifting-Magnet-Handling-Steel-Plate-HVR-MAG-1200x649.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-55\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">HVR MAG&#8217;s lifting magnets for steel plate<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>Advantages of Permanent Lifting Magnet<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It doesn&#8217;t require electrical supply during the handling of the load; no danger of dropping the material if there is a power failure and can be used when electricity is not readily available.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Advantages of Electric Lifting Magnet<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As a device which releases magnetic field with a continuous electrical supply, the strength can be increased by connecting it to a higher volt battery or charger, which is to say it offers the potential of much higher lifting capacity. It can also generate a much deeper magnetic field than permanent magnets enabling them, for example, to penetrate through several plates in a stack. The greater depth of field makes them generally more tolerant of a small air gap.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Advantages of Electro-permanent Lifting Magnet<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800080;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hvrmagnet.com\/category\/electro-permanent-lifting-magnets-1.html\">Electro-permanent lifting magnets<\/a> are featured with<\/span> <span style=\"color: #000000;\">the following:<\/span> energy saving<\/span> &#8211; only use power during activation and deactivation for a few seconds; <span style=\"color: #800080;\">higher safety<\/span> &#8211; can remain holding of the load even in a power failure; <span style=\"color: #800080;\">remote control available<\/span>; <span style=\"color: #800080;\">magnetic force<\/span> can be selectively managed for specified operation; <span style=\"color: #800080;\">maintenance free<span style=\"color: #000000;\">.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>To sum up, each type of lifting magnets has its pros and cons.
