It's widely applied to attract workpieces in surface grinders, electricprocessing machine-tools, as well as in casting, drilling, planning andboring machines. Besides, it's used in accessory holders for processingcenters and FMS systems.

Each pair of N/S poles generates an autonomous and defined force whichis not influenced by the operating conditions of the other adjacentpoles. Therefore by counting the number of poles occupied by the clampedpiece it is possible to predetermine the force generated andconsequently to establish the usable machine power with the relativemachining parameters.
