3 magnetic technologies - Advatages vs Disadvatages

Magnetic TechnologyAdvantagesDisadvantages
ElectromagneticStrong and deep magnetic field, adjustable magnetic force with use of a potentiometer, easy to turn on and off, great option for junk yard magnets and certain surface grinding applicationsHigh power consumption, requires a constant power source, can generate heat during use, potential for electromagnetic interference
ElectropermanentStrong and powerful holding force, does not require a continuous electrical source, does not generate heat, adjustable magnetic force via remote control, easy to turn on and off, great option for all workholding and many lifting applicationsCan be more expensive than some electromagnetic systems and regular permanent magnets
PermanentNo power source required, lower cost, low maintenance, no risk of electromagnetic interference, long-lasting magnetic forceFixed magnetic force, may not be strong enough for some applications, may not be suitable for all workpiece shapes and sizes, difficult to turn on and off

Keep in mind that the suitability of each magnetic technology will depend on the specific application and requirements of the magnetic chuck or lifting magnet. Speak to a Braillon representative today for more details.
