Product catalog summary

Overview: Ixtur Ltd. is a Finnish company specializing in the development and manufacturing of permanent magnet-based lifters, grippers, and custom applications for various industries such as machinery, welding, automation, robotics, and material handling. The company focuses on energy-efficient magnet components and applications.

Magnet Specifications:

MAP-6: Nominal lifting capacity of 6 kg with a required plate thickness of >4 mm. Residual gripping capacity when off is 0.03 kg. Dimensions are ø 35 x 35 mm, weighing 0.19 kg.
MAP-40: Nominal lifting capacity of 40 kg with a required plate thickness of >8 mm. Residual gripping capacity when off is 0.2 kg. Dimensions are ø 65 x 50 mm, weighing 0.95 kg.
MAP-180: Nominal lifting capacity of 180 kg with a required plate thickness of >25 mm. Residual gripping capacity when off is 6 kg. Dimensions are ø 120 x 82 mm, weighing 5.80 kg.
MAP-120R: Optimized for round loads with a nominal lifting capacity of 120 kg and a required diameter of >200 mm. Residual gripping capacity when off is 6 kg. Dimensions are ø 120 x 82 mm, weighing 5.80 kg.
MRP-46: Suitable for gripping round and flat parts with a nominal lifting capacity of 46 kg and a required diameter of >120 mm. Residual gripping capacity when off is 4 kg. Dimensions are 80 x 55 x 82.5 mm, weighing 1.90 kg.
MRP-170: Suitable for gripping round and flat parts with a nominal lifting capacity of 170 kg and a required diameter of >120 mm. Residual gripping capacity when off is 30 kg. Dimensions are 120 x 103 x 140 mm, weighing 10.7 kg.
MRP-130F: Nominal lifting capacity of 130 kg with a required plate thickness of >25 mm. Residual gripping capacity when off is 40 kg. Dimensions are 120 x 103 x 120 mm, weighing 9.5 kg.

Gripping Capacity: The gripping capacity varies with plate thickness and airgap. For example, the MAP-6 has a nominal gripping capacity of 18 kg with a plate thickness of >4 mm, and its capacity decreases with increasing airgap.

Applications: Ixtur pneumatic magnets are suitable for various applications including lifters, robot grippers, fixtures, and production automation. Specific models like the MRP-46 and MRP-170 are suitable for irregularly shaped objects, while MAP-120R and MRP-130F are optimized for parts that do not fully cover the gripping surfaces.

IXTUR PNEUMATIC MAGNETS Magnet * MRP-130F may require air pressure up to 6 bars, when the load is thick and it covers most of the gripping surface. Nominal gripping capacity is the maximum mass the magnet can lift. To reach the nominal gripping capacity, the load must be thick enough, there is no airgap and the material is mild steel S355. Nominal lifting capacity is the maximum mass the magnet can lift with a safety factor of 3. The nominal lifting capacity is one third of the nominal gripping capacity. Airgap refers to any non-magnetic material between the magnet's gripping surface and the handled part. Airgap can be caused by e.g. paint, dirt, rust or plastic coating. Residual gripping capacity , i.e. the gripping capacity when the magnet is OFF, varies based on the material and structure of the gripped part. The residual capacity is greatest as long as the part continously stays in contact with the magnet after the magnet has been turned from ON to OFF. With most of the load shapes, the gripping capacity is only a fraction of the number given in the table above. Company • Ixtur Ltd. is a Finnish magnet technology company established in 2010.

MAP-6, MAP-40 and MAP-180 magnets are especially designed for flat parts that fully cover the magnet’s gripping surface. The magnets can also be used with narrow loads and perforated materials, but the gripping force is lower. Ixtur pneumatic magnets suit for various applications: lifters, robot grippers, fixtures and production automation. MAP-120R and MRP-130F magnets’ gripping surfaces are optimized for parts that do not fully cover the whole gripping surfaces of the magnets. MRP-46 and MRP-170 magnets are suitable for gripping round and flat parts, as well as irregularly shaped objects. Videos...
