An Introduction to Fork Lift Truck Magnetic Sweeper

The The Fork Lift Truck Magnetic Sweeper has been specifically manufactured so that it can be easily fitted onto a Fork Lift Truck. The magnet system design allows for industrial heavy duty magnetic sweeper use. The Fork Lift Truck Magnetic Sweeper has two mounted brackets for the fork tines to slide through. The standard distance between the midpoints of the brackets is 70cm, although this can be changed upon request. The Fork Lift Truck Magnetic Sweeper is held in place on the fork tines by tightening the eyebolts which are part of the mounted brackets.

Because the Fork Lift Truck Magnetic Sweeper has eyebolts as part of the mounted brackets, the Fork Lift Truck Magnetic Sweeper can be used with other devices such as gantry cranes or it can be mounted elsewhere on the Fork Lift Truck. The eyebolts allow connection by using hanging chains or rope. The eyebolts of the Fork Lift Truck Magnetic Sweeper assembly could also be used to connect to other moveable equipment e.g. at the front of industrial cleaning equipment, trolleys, etc. Ideally the Fork Lift Truck Magnetic Sweeper is swept over the ground about to be covered by the moving object to collect ferromagnetic debris before it can puncture the wheels of the moving object.

The Fork Lift Truck Magnetic Sweeper is robust in design, with the magnets enclosed in a protective stainless steel case to minimise damage during heavy duty magnetic sweeping. The stainless steel case is easily cleaned, making maintenance simply and fast.

The Fork Lift Truck Magnetic Sweeper picks up ferrous material from approximately 75mm to 100mm away from the surface. The Fork Lift Truck Magnetic Sweeper will pick up even more if the gap is made smaller (e.g. 50mm) but we would recommend not making the gap too small to avoid accidentally grounding the sweeper during operation (and to avoid it lifting up manhole covers!). The Fork Lift Truck Magnetic Sweeper’s heavy duty magnetic design effortlessly picks up ferromagnetic shards, nuts, bolts, pins and nails (non-magnetic materials such as aluminium, copper, some stainless steels, etc are not attracted to magnets and remain uncollected). In areas where tyre punctures are known to occur due to ferromagnetic materials piercing the tyres, the Fork Lift Truck Magnetic Sweeper may provide a cost saving plus a reduction in downtime.

The Fork Lift Truck Magnetic Sweeper is ideal for large warehouses, car parks, service bays, paths, metal recycling plants, factories and runways etc.

The Fork Lift Truck Magnet can also be used as a suspension magnet. It can be placed over a conveyor belt to pull out ferrous objects. If a dedicated suspension magnets system is required (including designs using NdFeB Rare Earth magnets), please contact us for a quotation. For an even greater performance for lifting ferromagnetic materials in conveyor applications, a bigger F3 version of the Fork Lift Truck Magnet exists (the standard unit is the F2 version; the F3 version has 50% more magnet material in its design). The F3 version gives an even deeper magnetic field to lift material from further away as well as lifting heavier items, making it ideal for placing over conveyor belts.

If you wish use a Fork Lift Truck to tow, please review the Towable Magnetic Sweeper, the Universal Magnetic Sweeper and the Complete Magnetic Sweeper systems as the handle system could be modified to connect to a Fork Lift Truck.

For note, the active magnetic width of the Fork Lift Truck Magnetic Sweeper is 1.2m. The active magnetic width of the Fork Lift Truck Magnetic Sweeper can be manufactured in different lengths (by multiples of 150mm) upon request. The bracket locations can also be altered if required. If you would like such modifications making, please contact us for a quotation.
