IXTUR | MAP-SERIE
FLAT PARTS | FROM 6 to 180kg
MAP-SERIE are pneumatically controlled neodymium permanent magnets, which have excellent size / gripping force ratio and extremely low residual magnetism. The compact size combined with high gripping force make them versatile for various applications including: lifters, robot grippers, fixtures, production automation
What should I consider when selecting the right magnets ?
Three factors influence a magnet’s holding force :
- The material properties
- The thickness of the load
- The distance between the gripping surface and the load (air gap)

FAQ | Frequently Asked Questions
Which industries are they used in ?
- Metallurgical industry
- Machining
- Welding
- Industrial handling
- Automation
What are the key advantages of using MAP series magnets ?
- Excellent size to gripping capacity ratio
- Easy control by compressed air - No electricity required
- Suitable for robot grippers of pick and place applications
- Optimal for robotics, other industrial automation, lifting and workholding
- Maintenance free - Keep their magnetic state in case of lost air pressure
- MRP series allow handling of wide range of load shapes and sizes
How does material thickness affect performance ?
Thicker materials allow better magnetic flux circulation, resulting in higher holding force.
Thin materials can significantly reduce lifting capacity.
How does an air gap affect magnetic holding force ?
Even a minimal air gap greatly reduces holding force, with an exponential drop as the gap increases.
This gap can result from coatings or layers such as paint, zinc, rust, frost, or simply air.
