Permanent Magnet Parts Lifter
Direct Replacement of Vacuum Cups
MPI’s Permanent Magnetic Parts Lifter (PMPL) Series is designed for ferrous parts and the direct replacement of vacuum cups located on ferrous parts transfer systems. MPI’s exclusive “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 airline is disconnected or loses pressure. This process ensures a positive connection between your parts and the working surface of the Permanent Magnetic Parts Lifter.
