A self-contained and self-powered vacuum lifter for handling all types of
metal plate and sheet including aluminum and stainless steel without
leaving marks, is available from Anver Corp. of Hudson, Massachusetts.
The Anver Mechanical Lifter features a self-cycling valve and piston that
creates a powerful suction by lowering it from a crane onto a load until
the chain slackens completely and then raising it again. This eliminates
the need for hooks, grabs, magnets and external power, reducing noise and
pollution. Only the rubber vacuum pad touches the load, which prevents
damage, especially on highly polished surfaces.
Safe to use around CNC equipment because there are no electromagnetic
fields, the Anver Mechanical Lifter is fully self-contained, and is
controlled by the action of the hoist being raised and lowered. Available
in single and multiple-pad configurations with capacities up to 15,000
lbs., this lifter can be transported from crane-to-crane and can operate
virtually anywhere.
