SHEET METAL HANDLING

Product catalog summary
Introduction
Vacuum lifts play a crucial role in the metal processing industry by facilitating the efficient handling of sheet metal. They are particularly useful for moving large and thin sheets, which are difficult to manage due to their low stability. The uniform dimensions and smooth surfaces of metal sheets make vacuum technology an ideal solution for their transportation.

Specifications and Features
The vacuum lifters are engineered to manage metal sheets of various sizes and weights, with a capacity of up to 2,000 kg. They include adjustable grips and suction plates to prevent sagging or buckling. The construction is hot-dip galvanized to protect against corrosion, and the devices meet EN 13155 safety standards.

Standard Vacuum Lifts
AERO-LIFT provides a selection of standard vacuum lifts with different carrying capacities and configurations, such as models AERO 150/6R to AERO 2000/8R, each tailored for specific weight and size requirements.

Heavy Duty Vacuum Lifts
For handling extremely heavy loads, AERO-LIFT offers heavy-duty vacuum lifts that can manage weights exceeding 50,000 kg. These are particularly useful in industries like shipbuilding and wind energy, where large metal plates are prevalent.

Swivelling and Turnable Lifters
These lifters are capable of 90° swivelling and 180° turning, which aids in tasks such as painting both sides of metal panels. They are designed for single-operator use, enhancing ease of operation.

Individual Industry Solutions
AERO-LIFT provides customized solutions tailored to specific industry needs, ensuring seamless integration into existing workflows. These solutions are versatile and can be adapted for various materials and applications.

Mains-Free Units
For on-site installations, mains-free vacuum lifters like CLAD-BOY® are available. These units are ideal for construction sites, offering convenience without the need for electrical connections.

Production and Service
AERO-LIFT Vakuumtechnik GmbH is renowned for its high-quality, German-made products. The company focuses on precision and customer satisfaction, providing a wide array of lifters and components for diverse applications.
