Product catalog summary
Overview
ANVER Corporation has been a leading manufacturer of mechanical vacuum lifters in North America since 1968. These lifters are designed to attach to any crane hook and operate without external power, making them versatile for various industrial applications.
Specifications and Features
  • Self-powered and self-cycling, these lifters create their own vacuum mechanically, eliminating the need for plant power or complex controls.
  • They are suitable for handling non-porous materials like sheet metal, panels, and plates.
  • The lifters feature a unique design that allows for instant attachment and release controlled by the hoist's movement.
  • Adjustable components include cups on crossarms and crossarms on the beam, allowing for customization based on load size.
  • Constructed with heavy-duty materials, they are built for long life and minimal maintenance.
Operating Procedure
  1. Lower the lifter onto the load until the chain is slack.
  2. Lift the load by pulling up the hoist.
  3. Set down the load until the chain is slack again to release the vacuum.
  4. Repeat the process for subsequent lifts.
Technical Description
  • The vacuum generator consists of a piston within a cylinder, sealed by a rubber diaphragm, ensuring efficiency without metal-to-metal contact.
  • An automatic self-cycling valve controls the vacuum attach-and-release cycle, ensuring safe operation.
Advantages
  • No external power source is required, making the lifters unaffected by power failures.
  • They offer silent operation and are safe for use around water burning tables.
  • Designed for 24/7 operation with low maintenance needs.
