With the new vacuum lifting devices VacuMaster Basic/Comfort, Schmalz offers customers and users an ideal aid for rationalisation of material-flow and handling tasks in production and assembly, and also in the stockroom.

In order to permit the simple, rapid and low-cost construction of a vacuum lifting device VacuMaster Basic/Comfort, Schmalz offers basic modules with electric vacuum generators, operator handles, main and cross beams of various lengths and a wide range of different standard and special suction pads.

Three basic versions are available, for lifting loads in the horizontal position and for swivelling them by 90° to the vertical position or for turning them through 180°.

The following are some further innovative highlights of the new generation. The main beams are anodised, extruded aluminium sections which, in addition to carrying the load, also act as the vacuum reservoir and the vacuum distributor. The light rigid connecting elements are made of a special fibreglass-reinforced plastic material. The ergonomically designed manual slide valve locks in each of its end positions to prevent inadvertent operation. Last but not least, the ergonomically designed operator handle permits precise and fatigue-free operation of the lifting device.
