Application

MPI's exclusive Permanent Magnetic Parts Lifter (PMPL series) (patent pending) is designed for ferrous parts and the direct replacement of vacuum cups located on ferrous parts transfer systems.

Operation:

A powerful rare-earth magnet is activated by air pressure. An air solenoid (provided by customer) controls both on and off operation by connecting flexible air lines to the quick disconnect fittings. Short bursts of air ranging from 40-60 psi is all that is required to operate the unit.

Standard features:

• MPI's exclusive (patent pending) “Fail Safe" feature is built into each magnet. Once the powerful permanent magnet is engaged, only air pressure in the reverse "off" direction will disengage the unit, even if the air line is disconnected or losses pressure. This process ensures a positive connection between parts and the working surface of the Permanent Magnetic Parts Lifter
• CNC machined from billet aluminum
• MPI's exclusive replaceable and easy-to-change O-ring nonmarring face
• Standard sizes available range from 1-3/4" to 9" diameter
• Low air consumption and quiet operation
• Air supply controls positive part pick up and release with no internal spring unlike other brands
• Longer lasting solution compared to vacuum cups
• Standard 3/8-NTP thread for retro-fit to existing endofectors

Optional features:

• Steel air line fittings
• Custom sizes available
• Suction cup adapter plate, for simple retrofit applications on existing lines
• Custom magnetic circuits to meet customer specific applications available on request
