When we set out to shuttering magnet manufacture, we were not about to go small. We have a team of in-house magnetists here at Magprecast who create these advanced magnet arrangements. The precast concrete magnet has an incredible magnetic field strength and suction force. The suction force is over 200 times its own weight. Through the interaction of the magnetically conductive materials, the arrangement of the magnetic lines of the individual magnets changes.
Usage
When the Precast concrete magnet is in use, the bottom of the magnet is firmly attached to the steel mold platform. (The magnet and the platform form a complete magnetic circuit closing system.) This circuit exhibits an ultra-strong holding force. The shuttering magnet will not budge, slip, or shift while in use, making it much safer and user-friendly.
Lifting the magnet to the platform
When the precast concrete magnet is not in use, there’s a gap between the magnet and the platform. The magnetic circuit is not saturated, and the holding force is reduced. This is the time to pry the shuttering magnets open with a tool and begin using it with the platform.
Instructions for safe use
To ensure your shuttering magnets can last through countless uses, be sure to treat them with care. Below are some tips on how you can help lengthen the lifespan of your shuttering magnet.

Why should you be using shuttering magnets?
Shuttering magnets have entirely revamped the precast concrete industry, for the better! Check out some of the perks of using them below. We’ve come up with 20 reasons, but we think it’s safe to say the advantages of shuttering magnets are virtually endless.
Precautions
Much like anything else, there are some precautions to take when using our magnets. These are not only for your safety but to ensure the precast concrete magnet performs as it should.
1. The internal components of the neodymium magnet must be kept clean. Avoid debris entering the template magnet. If foreign material makes its way in, the magnetic force will be in jeopardy.
2. The maximum operating or storage temperature must be below 80 ° C. Higher temperatures may cause the template magnet to decrease or lose its magnetic force completely. The temperature of a standard curing furnace is below 60 ℃ so the magnet can enter directly. If the curing furnace’s temperature is higher than 80 ℃, remove the magnet before entering the curing furnace.
3. Keep the shuttering magnet away from electronic devices and unnecessary ferromagnetic metals. This includes mobile phones, tablets, smartwatches, laptops, and computers. Almost no magnetic force is felt outside the steel casing of the shuttering magnets, but the magnetic force inside is extremely strong.
Safety note* If someone wears a pacemaker, extra care should be taken because strong magnetic fields can damage electronic devices inside the pacemaker.

FAQ
Why does the fixed effect of shuttering magnets weaken over time?
This happens when there are foreign objects (such as concrete, iron filings, film, etc.) on the bottom of the product or misalignment of the magnet, it can’t properly attach to the platform. You won’t get the same holding force, and it can weaken the magnet over time.
How can I prevent damage to my magnet?
Try to be as gentle as possible. Yes, the magnets are tough and can withstand regular usage, but if they’re banged around or mistreated, they won’t perform at their absolute best.
The physical properties of the damaged NdFeB material inside the magnet are hard and brittle.
Therefore, the magnet should not be impacted or thrown around by external force. Nor can the two magnets be attracted to each other. If the magnet inside the product breaks and damages the body, the product cannot be used.
When will I receive my shuttering magnet?
Most orders will be shipped out within 3-5 days. We try to keep our inventory high to reduce waiting times. If you need a customized precast concrete magnet or a logo, contact us to learn more.
Will the magnet lose tension over time?
Every magnet will lose some tension over time. Magprecast uses high-quality magnets to ensure our loss rate is only 1% within the first 10 years of use.

Shuttering Magnet (Shuttering Magnet for Precast Formwork) Introduction
Precast concrete magnets are very popular in modern civil engineering. In the past 5 years, some conventional magnets were used to position and fasten the formwork, but considerable mechanical loads with a hammer were required, which destroy the surface of the expensive formwork tables and fragile neodymium magnet as well.
In order to facilitate the precast concrete formwork industry, GME is developing and manufacturing our own shuttering magnet to solve this problem successfully.
Our shuttering magnet also is known as button magnets and magnetic boxes. It is consists of a metal casing, a magnetic system, and an effective on/off button, which provides quick operation leading to improved efficiency when setting out and remove the formwork. Shuttering Magnet. And with customized adaptors, Shuttering Magnet provides an ideal solution for almost all kinds of precast concrete formwork structures and construction for wood, aluminum, and steel shutters.
All GME shuttering magnets have extraordinarily high magnetic power more 250 times than their dead weight. Among them, Shuttering magnet 1800KG and 2100KGS is a large size for steel precast concrete platform.
The GME shuttering magnet have an automatic system to activate and deactivate the magnetic field. By application of this precast magnet box, the working time and cost will be reduced and the same workers could produce more concrete walls in a shorter time. Under the same artificial conditions, the use of the shutter magnet system can increase the production capacity by 7 times
Key Benefits Of Shuttering Magnets:
1.Easy installation and effortless operation. Your workers could choose a fixed position at will and quickly build concrete formwork according to individual architectural design. Significantly save complexity and time and cost on the installation of magnetic formwork(up to 70%).
2.Universal use for mass production of concrete products, and piece different shape and size concrete elements of all forms on the same steel table. Excellent applicability, the same prefabricated formwork magnet can be adapted to different concrete formworks. You do not need to have a lot of different forms for different products. The same magnet can be used for different purposes and in different ways. You only need a set of magnets, adapters for different height boards, and a steel table. Your workers could contemporaneously build different concrete formworks at one time; even during the building process, your workers could adjust the concrete formwork.
3. Integrated threaded holes M12 and M16 to adapt formwork and customized adapters, to fix all kinds of side-formwork including wood, steel, and aluminum formworks, eliminates the need for welding, shuttering magnets does not damage the steel table. Avoid welding or bolting to the formwork table therefore preserving surface finish and reduce direct damage to the concrete platform in the working.
4.No welding process is required, and the magnetic force of the magnet can be used to fit the template. Avoid welding or bolting to the formwork table therefore preserving the surface finish. No need for electric welding, you can save high energy consumption.
5.10-Year-long service life and reusable. Low cost. Short payback period.
Structure and Elements of Shuttering Magnets:
The Shuttering magnet assembly consists of steel Casing and fixing screws and a switchable magnetic block or magnetic core (certain designed magnetic circuit) which is made of some strong neodymium magnets and steel plates.
This magnetic core provides very much strong adhesive force to the precast concrete tables. There is a control ON/OFF button on the top of the shuttering magnet, to open or close the magnetic power.
1.Magnet on/off Switch:
1.Stainless steel, Lathe fine grinding,
2. Over 100,000 fatigue simulation experiments, avoid any deformation and malfunction.
3.Humanization design, quick switch (on/off) the magnetic field.
2.Fixing Screws: (Applicable national standard)
Fixing screws can be utilized to secure a different kind of side rails and blackouts
1. Production according to the standard of GB /T 15389-94-GB.
2.Strength ≤1000 Kg: M12
3.Strength>1000 Kg: M16
3.Strong Neodymium Magnet
Many competitors add more 12% Lanthanum Cerium ingredient in the neodymium magnet when production. 6-8% costs can be saved; by this formula, the same Remanence (Br) is the same to Chinese standard, but its Coercive Force (Hcb) and Intrinsic Coercive (Hjc) is much less and its magnetic field will decrease about 10-15% after 6-10 months.
Neodymium Magnet occupied more than 50% cost shuttering magnet. It is the most important element of this product. The most advantage is that Neodymium Magnet is produced and quality controlled by our own since 9 years ago, certificated by GB/T19001-2016 IDT IS09001:2015 and TS16949. Our material is from Shanxi Province, its performance is higher about 1 grade, but expensive a little. Our warranty is 3 years if proper use.

Why the magnet can create more 200 times stronger than its dead weight?
After a reasonable magnetic circuit design, multiple pieces of strong NdFeB magnet with the same magnetic pole are forcibly fixed in a relatively small space by screws. There is a Q235 magnetic permeable block between the magnets, to guide the repulsive force of the same poles in the same direction and perpendicular to the mold table. Multiple magnetic pole lines form a stable magnetic field and a very high magnetic holding force.

In order to improve our inspection strength and ability, we also have a great partnership with 5 3rd party inspection organization, to do to regular and irregular material analysis and inspection.
2. Excellent production equipment for the quality internal control on quality and lead time
Most competitors outsourcing the post-production processing to a small workshop, but the quality and process control is lacking an internal inspection. Even they found the problem, it is difficult to improve and solve, and finally, clients burden the loss. This is a serious current situation and problem for Made-in-China production.
Compared with other competitors, we have spared no effort to improve our self-production ratio, equipment-owned ratio since 3 years ago. We imported the automatic laser cutting bed from Europe, to improve precision-oriented and bending machine and so on. It can be said that apart from painting and baking, we have almost mastered all the processes and equipment for the production of shuttering magnet, which leads to better, stricter internal control than our competitors.
3. Pull Strength Testing:
Regarding the detection of suction, we will inspect all orders with less than 10 pcs; if the orders are higher than 10 pcs, our inspection ratio is 10%.
4. QM& QC System
We also use the Advantaged Product Quality Planning (APQP), Potential Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA), Statistical Process Control (SPC) Production Part Approval Process (PPAP), Measurement System Analysis (MSA) Error Proofing method to prevent the defects from occurring.
As mentioned above, the safety stock of our regular products is 2 months. In addition, our safety stock of raw materials and accessories exceeds 3 months. So our magnetic box delivery delay rate in 2019 is 0%.

Daily, weekly, and monthly production plans are reviewed and updated to ensure that your team delivers timely feedback and progress every day, week, and month.
How to Pack a shuttering magnet, to meet with your requirement shipping by sea, by air/express, and by railway?
Your shuttering magnet will pack with a double-wall corrugated carton firstly and tight with a strong packing belt. Between cartons and shuttering magnet, between magnets, there is a high-quality foam plate to separate and protect products from scratch and damage.
1. By Sea, you have 2 packing options by sea.
1.1 Packing by Pallet
1.2 Packing by Strong Wooden Case.
This option looks more formal and beautiful. But it is more expensive 35USD per Case than option 1.
2. What should you pay attention to when shipping shuttering magnet by air?
By Air and Express such as FedEx, DHL, UPS, and TNT:
In international air/Express transportation, magnetic items are sensitive, and their magnetism will interfere with the safety of aircraft transportation. Therefore, the airline decided that all items containing magnetism need to be magnetically inspected.
So we need to magnetically shield the items so that the magnetism of the items meets airline standards. So packing needs to insert thick iron sheets or iron boxes between the foam and carton wall.
Friendly tips:
When magnetic items are shipped together with non-magnetic items, all items must be checked for magnetism.
The magnetic inspection report is a one-time report and is only used once. Next time, even if you use the same logistics channels for the same items, you still need to do a magnetic inspection and obtain the corresponding magnetic inspection report. Except for FedEx and DHL, they accept annual magnetic reports.
By Railway, we use the same packing standard to that of by air.
How to use the Shuttering Magnet:
It is very easy to use this product. Simply move the concrete magnet onto the precast concrete platform (or tray) and press the button.
Open the magnetic field:
Press the button by foot or rubber hammer.
Close the magnetic field:
Pry up the button by the lift lever (also known as the crowbar), the button can easy to be pulled up.
Tip: use 2 pcs tools together when removing more than 1000KG, in case of the lever bending
