Excavators are indispensable equipment in the construction, demolition, scrap metal recycling, and other industries. Excavator hydraulic magnets are electromagnet devices installed on excavators. They use the excavator’s hydraulic system to provide power to generate strong magnetic force for adsorbing and moving ferromagnetic objects such as steel plates, steel pipes, steel bars, scrap metals, etc. If your project needs the excavator hydraulic magnet, contact us now! Also, we have other types of excavator attachments.【WhatsApp/WeChat/Phone/Skype】+86 136 1385 6800

Components of Hydraulic Magnets for Excavators:
- Electromagnet body: This is the core component, consisting of a coil and a magnetic core. When powered on, the coil generates a magnetic field and the magnetic core is magnetized, generating a strong suction force.
- Hydraulic system: Hydraulic motors, hydraulic pumps, hydraulic valves, etc., are used to drive the electromagnet to engage release and control the magnitude of the magnetic force.
- Control system: Used to operate the electromagnet switch and adjust the magnetic force, usually using a control panel or remote control in the cab.
- Connection device: Used to fix the electromagnet to the working arm or bucket of the excavator, usually using flanges, quick connectors, etc.
Advantages of Hydraulic Magnets for Excavators:
- Efficient and convenient: Compared with traditional mechanical grabs, hydraulic magnets are simpler and faster to operate, greatly improving work efficiency.
- Safe and reliable: The strong adsorption force ensures the safety of the workpiece during handling and reduces the occurrence of accidents.
- Wide range of applications: It can be used for handling and sorting ferromagnetic objects of various shapes and sizes.
- Manpower saving: It reduces the need for manual handling and reduces labor intensity.
- Environmental protection and energy saving: Some models use permanent magnet technology or optimized circuit design, which is more energy-saving and environmentally friendly.
Application Cases and Customer Feedback of Hydraulic Magnets in Singapore:
As an important economic center in Southeast Asia, Singapore is very active in port logistics, construction, scrap metal recycling, and other fields. These fields have a strong demand for efficient and safe material handling and fixing solutions, and hydraulic magnets have great potential in them.
Case 1: PSA Container Terminal
- Application scenario: At container terminals, containers filled with steel products need to be frequently handled and stacked. Traditional hoists have low operating efficiency and are prone to shaking, posing safety hazards. The use of hydraulic magnet hoists can lift containers faster and more stably, improving terminal operation efficiency.
- Customer feedback: “Since the introduction of hydraulic magnet hoists, our container loading and unloading speed has increased by more than 15%, greatly shortening the ship’s stay in the port. The hydraulic magnet has a very strong adsorption force and can ensure the safety of containers even in bad weather conditions. In addition, the operation is easier and reduces the occurrence of human errors.” – PSA Terminal Operations Manager
Case 2: A large construction company in Singapore
- Application scenario: In the construction of high-rise buildings, a large number of steel structure components need to be lifted. The traditional wire rope hoisting method is cumbersome to operate and has safety hazards. The use of hydraulic magnet hoists can lift steel beams, steel columns, and other components more safely and efficiently, speeding up the construction progress.
- Customer feedback: “We have been using traditional wire rope hoisting methods before, which is very inefficient and often cause components to shake, which is very dangerous. Now that hydraulic magnet hoists are used, the hoisting speed is significantly faster and the safety is greatly improved. The hydraulic control system is very precise and can easily position the components to the specified position, greatly improving the construction accuracy.” – Construction Project Manager
Case 3: A scrap metal recycling company in Singapore
- Application scenario: Singapore’s scrap metal recycling industry is very developed and needs to handle a large amount of scrap steel. Traditional grab loaders are inefficient and prone to environmental pollution. The use of hydraulic magnets can sort and transport scrap steel more efficiently and cleanly, improving recycling efficiency.
- Customer feedback: “The hydraulic magnet performs well in scrap metal recycling. It can easily absorb scrap steel of various shapes and sizes, greatly improving our sorting and loading efficiency. Compared with traditional grab buckets, the hydraulic magnet is cleaner, reduces dust and noise pollution, and improves the working environment.” – Head of a scrap metal recycling company
Things to Note When Choosing Hydraulic Magnets for Excavators:
