Meta description: Energise-to-hold electromagnets for lifting, clamping and workholding. Available in 20–100 mm sizes with 12 VDC, 24 VDC and selected 240 VAC options.
Eclipse Magnetics Energise-to-Hold Electromagnets provide dependable, switchable magnetic holding for lifting, clamping, fixturing and workholding applications. Engineered to energise when powered and release instantly when de-energised, these robust electromagnets deliver controlled magnetic force for machinery, automation systems, assembly processes and handling equipment where reliable on-off holding is essential.
Built with durable housings and precision wound coils, this range is designed for repeated industrial use and consistent performance. Available in multiple diameters and holding strengths, the electromagnets suit everything from compact positioning tasks through to higher-force clamping and handling duties. Selected models are also available in 240 VAC, providing additional flexibility for a wider range of industrial systems.
Key Features
-
Controlled magnetic holding: energise-to-hold operation ensures the magnet only holds when powered for safe, precise switching.
-
Wide performance range: available in diameters from 20 mm to 100 mm with holding forces from 5.2 kg to 360.0 kg.
-
Multiple voltage options: supplied in 12 VDC and 24 VDC, with selected models also available in 240 VAC.
-
Compact industrial design: suitable for integration into fixtures, machines, automation cells and assembly systems.
-
Durable construction: engineered for repeated use in demanding production and workshop environments.
-
Optimised holding efficiency: compatible with matching armature plates for improved magnetic contact and performance.
Typical Applications
- Magnetic lifting and material handling in fabrication and production lines.
- Workholding for machining, grinding, drilling and assembly fixtures.
- Automated clamping systems requiring rapid on/off magnetic control.
- Pick-and-place systems in manufacturing and robotic applications.
- Temporary fixtures and positioning systems where mechanical clamps are impractical.
