A junkyard or recycling center may employ a large magnet crane to move metal objects and scrap.

It is an electromagnet : with the power turned on, it attracts the ferrous materials to its metal disk. When the crane has reached the desired location (pile, container, or truck), the power is turned off and the magnetic attraction ceases, dropping the materials.
