VACUO-B vacuum lifting devices, which are dedicated to handling heavy loads from 80 to 320 kg such as wooden panels

Bolstered by this extensive experience and our knowhow on the vacuum handling market, COVAL is now offering you our full range of VACUO-B vacuum lifting devices, which are dedicated to handling heavy loads from 80 to 320 kg such as wooden panels ( chipboard, plywood.. ) and porous panels. The VACUO-B line of vacuum lifting devices is COVAL's standard product addressing such needs as horizontal handling and 90° swivelling of porous loads by one single operator. They are easy to use, benefit from outstanding reliability and all-round ruggedness, and are available in electric version. The VACUO-B vacuum lifting devices are equipped with a blower allowing to generate a high air flow and ensuring the grip of porous materials. Besides, in case of power failure, the handling of the loads is maintained thanks to the blower's flywheel.

The VACUO-B vacuum lifting devices are specifically designed for the following applications:
 Palletizing and depalletizing
 Feeding machinery
 Unloading conveyors

Advantages:
 Fast and easy to implement
 Humanizes the most strenuous physical labour
■ Productivity gains.
■ Loads can be handled by a single operator.
■ Will not cause any deterioration of handled loads.
■ Improves working conditions
■ Easy to use
■ Quick return on investment
■ Complies with EC directives

Ergonomics

Ergonomics
Using VACUO-B vacuum lifting devices allows you to improve working conditions by reducing operator's fatigue and accidents for all operations involving horizontal handling of porous panels weighing up to 320kg or 90° swivelling of panels weighing up to 250 kg.

Security

Security The VACUO-B line includes the following safety features:
