24V Electromagnet 20KG Holding force
This powerful electromagnet can be used to lift as well as hold a metal part in place.
A simple switch or micro-switch can be used to activate the electromagnet directly with 12 volts and 300 mA.
This is a great addition for robotic projects that require holding or lifting capability. You can activate it under program control with a microcontroller and a mosfet transistor such as the IRF510.
Please note:
Electromagnets are specified with "holding force" say 20 Kg / 44 lb. This is not how much weight they can pick up! Divide the holding force by 5-10 to get a rough estimate of how heavy a thing it can pick up. So in this case, about 2 Kg / 4.4 lb max. Note that pick-up weight also depends on a flat surface and max surface contact, and the ferromagnetic metal content. A perfectly flat steel cube will work great, something oddly shaped or covered in rubber or plastic will not!
