ISUS Innovative Stau- und Umschlagstechnologie für Stahlprodukte/ Development of an innovative magnetic device for the handling of steel sheets in seaports 
The handling of steel sheets is dominated by classical, mechanical load handling attachments which usually consist of hooks, chains, ropes and belts. These attachments are comparatively heavy and unwieldy but are convincing regarding design, quality and reliability. However, this technology offers very little potential for innovation and process optimisation. The research focuses on the development of innovative magnet systems regarding the above mentioned boundaries, restrictions and requirements. Typical handling problems will be solved and the necessity of permanent maintenance will be reduced. Altogether, the handling of steel products will be faster, safer and gentle to material.
