Schmalz' VacuMaster vacuum lifting system, available from Wainbee

Wainbee is proud to carry the ultimate workhorse of lifting equipment: the VacuMaster vacuum lifting system from Schmalz. These devices are designed to handle even the heaviest loads with weights up to several tons, including metal plates, wooden boards, plastic sheets, barrels, windows and glass sheets. VacuMaster vacuum lifting systems offer many features and advantages, enabling users to work effortlessly, safely and ergonomically.

Key features and benefits

VacuMaster has a modular design, with various modules, operator handles, load beams and suction plates available to customize the configuration for each unique application. The necessary suction force is generated by the vacuum generator and transferred to the workpiece via the suction plates. For safety purposes, the aluminum load beam also serves as a vacuum reservoir. An additional safety feature is the audible warning device.

For applications where many hands would normally be required, the VacuMaster allows workpieces to be handled effortlessly and safely by just a single operator. It also protects the products being lifted, as it enables the efficient, non-damaging handling of heavy loads. Another bonus: the VacuMaster offers a long service life thanks to its robust construction — a combination of steel, aluminum and high-strength plastic.

Ideal applications

The VacuMaster vacuum lifting system is suitable for many tasks, including:

  • Handling large, flat and typically non-porous workpieces;
  • Loading and unloading CNC laser cutting machines with metal plates;
  • Loading and unloading CNC machining centres with wooden boards or plastic sheets; and
  • Handling and positioning glass panels and windows during production, framing and installation.

Availability

The VacuMaster is available in Canada through Wainbee as part of its Machine Safety lineup, which also includes safety exhaust valves, safety circuits and variable frequency drives. The Mississauga, Ont.-based company is a leading provider of engineered systems, products and services for motion and control, industrial filtration and automation solutions. It is proud to be one of Canada’s largest manufacturing agents, with 16 offices and more than 250 employees.
