Anver Corp., Hudson, Mass., has introduced an environmentally friendly mechanical vacuum lifter than operates without requiring compressed air or electricity. The self-powered unit is available in capacities up to 18,000 pounds and has a mechanism that creates a suction when lowered onto the load by a hoist. Updated standard features for this energy-saving vacuum lifter include a battery-operated vacuum loss sensor with an audio-visual alarm and a 36-inch long ergonomic safety handle.
Suitable for handling metal, fiberglass, plastic, wood, and polished stone in the plant or on the jobsite, Anver’s mechanical vacuum lifter has adjustable cross arms and vacuum pad attachments that are equipped with top and bottom spring suspensions to evenly distribute the load forces. Four rectangular pads accommodate narrow to wide loads up to 12’x6’.
Lift & Access is part of the Catalyst Communications Network publication family.
