Vacuum hose lifter as ergonomic and material-protecting work tool

 

Move workpieces up to 300 kg easily, quickly and efficiently 

Back pain, material damage and increased personnel costs due to lifting and moving heavy objects are a thing of the past. 

Our solution: Vacuum hose lifters.

The equipment allows to move heavy loads ( depending on the model ) up to 300 kg. The operation of the lifting aids is intuitive and simple. You no longer need outdated methods such as chain or rope hoists.

The German Federal Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (BAuA) recommends the use of lifting aids in its free brochure "Manual Lifting, Holding and Carrying".

Advantages due to vacuum hose lifter

Due to the easy operation of vacuum hose lifter, heavy loads can be moved by only one person.
Vacuum hose lifters are:

  • health friendly
    Ergonomic operation takes the strain off employees' spines and is suitable for both right- and left-handed users.

  • Motivating
    Frequent monotonous movements become less stressful for the employee.

  • Low maintenance
    Our equipment rarely requires repairs, as we place a high value on reliable and durable workmanship. However, maintenance must be performed at least once a year due to regulations.
  • Cost-saving:
    Only one person is needed for operation. The reduced need for personnel lowers fixed and operating costs.

  • Time-saving
    Fast and easy handling increases productivity.

  • Gentle on materials
    Since the load is held by vacuum and soft suction feet, the risk of damage is reduced.

Vacuum hose lifter as a solution for many industries

hose lifters Applications

Objects with smooth surfaces are particularly suitable for a vacuum hose lifter.
These include, for example:

• boxes
• cartons
• metal sheets
• wooden boards
• plastic plates

In principle, however, bagged goods, buckets, barrels or canisters can also be lifted.

This makes vacuum hose lifters suitable for the

• logistics industry
• manufacturing industry
• the craft sector

Our hose lifters have proven themselves especially in logistics, the wood industry, the furniture industry, the metal industry and in assembly.

Due to the high suction capacity, goods with porous surfaces can also be lifted. The systems have to be adapted to the individual requirements in case of porous surfaces.

Vacuum hose lifters are gentle on materials due to optimally designed vacuum grippers. They are also ergonomic and efficient to use.

Lifting loads with a vacuum hose lifter:
How does a hose lifter work?

Vacuum hose lifters are devices that facilitate the lifting and moving of objects, especially large loads.

When used, a vacuum pump draws air out of the lifting unit through a vacuum hose, creating a vacuum. In the process, the object to be lifted and the suction cups are pressed against each other, sucked in, so to speak. The difference in pressure between the vacuum and the surrounding air creates the lifting force. When the operating lever is actuated, the vacuum in the lifting hose increases, it contracts further and the load is lifted. When the load is to be lowered again, the operating lever opens the valve again, the hose expands, and the load is lowered. The focus here is on work safety: as the loads are lifted by the vacuum, they remain sucked in even in the event of a possible power failure, leakage causes the vacuum in the lifting hose to reduce slowly and the load is lowered safely.
