The special feature is the horizontal slewing action of the articulated-jib crane, which permits a working area of about 20 m². That makes the loading of machines possible, which cannot be loaded from above. The rigid mounting prevents swinging of the load and simplifies the precise positioning, which is positively guided with the aid of chains.
 
Application areas:

• Sheet metals:
  Loading and unloading of CNC machines, universal gripper or gripper for structured surfaces (f.e. checker plates) are possible
• Plastic plates
• Glass plates
• Coated sheets of wood

General requirements for the successful use of the articulated-jib crane:

• Lifting device:
  Combination with the lifting device VacuMaster 500 with 4, 6 or 8 suction plates
• Prerequisites for the object to be lifted:
  Workpiece dimension: max. 4000 x 2000 mm
• Safety:
  High degree of safety due to automatic lowering/stop device

Technical data:

• Maximum load: 500 kg
• Lifting height: approx. 1700 mm
• Lifting speeds: 4 and 8 m/min
• Slewing radius: 3400 mm, 180°
• Working area: ca. 20 m²
• Overall height of crane: 3600 mm
