Vacuum Lifting Device - Handling of heavy workpieces | Schmalz

The VacuMaster Vario 2000 vacuum lifting device can be used to move steel sheets weighing up to 2,000 kg. The vacuum lifting device is composed of a steel longitudinal beam with an ergonomic operator handle, integrated vacuum reservoir and vacuum generator. The entire unit is suspended on the crane. To compensate for uneven areas on the steel sheets, a total of 14 single suction plates attached to spring elements were installed. The lifting aid requires only one person for operation and is very popular among the employees. The necessary degree of safety (even in the event of a power failure) is ensured by a large vacuum reservoir, a non-return valve to hold the steel sheet securely, and an electronic warning device which issues an acoustic signal when the vacuum level is too low. The manual slide valve with its clamp-safe catch lever prevents incorrect operation and the unintentional release of the load.
