3-3. Gripping force Holding conditions. To lift workpieces vertically, be sure to take into consideration the acceleration rate, air pressure, impact etc., in addition to the mass of the workpieces. Lifting direction Consider the center of gravity of the workpiece to avoid moments being applied the magnet gripper as much as possible.
Page 10
Thin workpieces may be deformed during transportation. It is recommended to use multiple magnet grippers for scenarios such as this. Calculate the required holding force. Workpiece thickness t [mm] The holding force graph shows the theoretical value for low carbon steel plate. Holding forces very depending on the material and shape of the workpiece.
