The Electro Mannat.

In engineering works the electro
magnet is taking a very prominent
place. This device dispenses with
hooks, sings and other lifting appara-
tbs. By throwing a switch controlling
the current the magnet Is energized
and thereby attaches itself to the bars,
castings, scrap or pig iron which It is
desired to lift The magnet poles are
shaped according to the nature Of the
material to be raised For heavy rails
they are oblOng and are slung from the
crane hook by a short chain. Castings
weighing over two tons are successful
~ handled by electro magnets. Anoth-
er use to which the electro magnet Is
put Is In breaking old castings 80 that
they may be melted and utilized. To
accomplish this the magnet Is made to
Lift and drop a steel ball Weighing
from one to six tons.
