Mechanical engineering is one of the most important industrial sectors in Germany. It can therefore be regarded as synonymous with German engineering expertise: High-tech and engineering at the highest level with global significance. With our high-quality magnetic systems, we at Brugger are a part of this. Our products and solutions provide holders, safety, order and smooth processes in a wide variety of places. No wonder that we have been a premium supplier to renowned machine manufacturers for many years, from small and medium-sized companies to global players.

In which areas are magnet systems used in mechanical engineering?

Brugger magnets and magnet systems are suitable for a wide range of applications in mechanical engineering. This includes comparatively simple tasks such as the secure fastening of cable guides or tools, for example. Our powerful magnets can also be used for heavier to very heavy-duty holding, positioning and conveying tasks (e.g. suspending control cabinets). Magnet systems can also be used in complex processes, for example in the field of sensor technology. With our in-depth experience and expertise, we at Brugger are the ideal partner with our magnetic systems.

What are the advantages of magnetic systems for cable routing in machines and systems?

Magnets offer very easy-to-install, flexible and effective solutions for cable installation and cable routing in machines and systems.

The "classic" way of handling cables involves laying them in cable ducts, mounting clamps or bars. Easier, more flexible and at least as functional: rubberised magnets (to protect the surface underneath) can be used to guide and attach cables directly to the housing of a machine.

All you need are cable ties and a metallic surface, such as a steel door frame, machine surfaces, radiators, etc. The cable ties are pulled through the plastic guide of the magnet, then the cables are fixed in place - that's it.

To accommodate cables, cable guides and hoses of different dimensions, Brugger naturally offers magnets in different sizes. Tools and accessories can also be attached directly to the machine using magnetic holders.

In concrete terms - Brugger magnet systems are used in machine and plant construction for

• holding workpieces in tools

• Cable guides on steel beams, machines and systems

• the suspension of switch cabinets

• holding pressure plates, sheet metal panelling, compressed air guns, control elements, etc.

• Switching sensors, e.g. position monitoring

• Separation technology, e.g. in recycling systems

• Holding doors and flaps closed

• sheet metal transport

• fixing warning and signalling lights and light strips
