Magnetic broom (magnetic sweeper) for the forklift truck MM 1200 DM

Magnetic sweeper for forklift trucksWe have developed a magnetic broom/sweeper destined for forklift trucks. This broom/sweeper can be easily positioned onto forklift truck skids. It is especially designed for metal impurities (strips, nails, grinding dust...) collection. It finds its application also in cleaning of huge areas.

 

Magnetic sweeper cleaning

By pulling out the handrail to the upper part of the magnetic lash, the lower part becomes de-magnetized so the metal particles are released.

Main benefits

  • Magnetic area width: 1200 mm
  • Simple cleaning
  • Possibility of using on various types of surfaces
  • Storage capability

Magnetic broom for the forklift truck MM 1200 DM - UP

Magnetic broom for the forklift truck MM 1200 DM - UP

This magnetic broom is, in comparison with the model MM 1200 DM, made of a stainless steel so it has a higher resistance, it is more comfortable to de-magnetize and easier method of fixation onto a forklift truck. From a viewpoint of magnetic efficiency, both brooms are identical. 

 

How the broom (sweeper) can be cleaned?

The principle of cleaning of the magnetic broom for the forklift trucks

By lifting up of both levers the broom is de-magnetized so caught metal particles fall off.
 

Benefits

  • Easy handling
  • Simple cleaning – lever mechanism
  • Magnetic area width: 1200 mm
  • Stainless-steel version
  • Easy fixation onto forklift trucks

Both brooms (sweepers) can be adapted to a desired length based on the forklift truck type.
