...from 1954 until today
SGM has continuously been developing its magnetic equipment technology by closely working with and being highly sensitive to the needs of steel mills all over the world.
This close relationship with the steel
industry has permitted SGM to become a leader in
lifting magnets and magnetic separation equipment.
| 1954 Since 1954 starting with standard circular electromagnets for lifting scrap and plates, SGM has continuously added new products to its lines and presented new magnetic lifting solutions as more sophisticated mill applications were developed (billets, multi-plates, rails, bundles of construction bars, structural, pipes etc.). |
1974 In 1974, as a result of SGM's ongoing research of new technological solutions, ElectroPermanent Lifting Magnets were introduced and quickly gained the confidence and interest of their users. |
1991 In 1991, to meet new safety, performance and weight requirements of the oil industry for pipe lifting applications on offshore drilling platforms, SGM developed and introduced a new generation of Rare Earth Electro-Permanent Magnets. This new technology was again quickly transferred to various steel industry applications. |
| 1993 Since 1993 SGM has formed an integral part of the Gantry group, through which its products are distributed. |
1995 In 1995 SGM launched the Flux Measuring Device(FMD), which is a major innovation of measurement technology for determining the lifting force of magnets. |
Today SGM, always in close contact with its worldwide customers, continues to bring new innovative solutions to satisfy new challenging conditions whilst maintaining the SGM image: Safety, Productivity, Reliability |
