Battery powered vacuum lifting units give greater flexibility, not needing to be permanently attached to power or air supply. This enables the unit to be moved throughout the workshop and to be used outside for loading or unloading or site work as required. Powered by high quality maintenance free battery, the vacuum lifting battery powered unit provides great life between charges. Being able to incorporate tilt and non tilt the vacuum lifting battery powered units are an essential tool in the use of materials handling. Recharged via a 12V charger, the unit can be stored and charged overnight ready for use the next day. Featuring vacuum gauges, audible alarms and indicator lights, the vacuum system will automatically turn on and off to factory preset levels to maintain safe vacuum levels while the unit is in use and to conserve power. vacuum lifting battery powered units come in standard configuration and can also be manufactured to suit custom applications.
Designed primarily for attachment to crane, gantry or jib system and to provide a safe and efficient resolution for moving materials within the workshop, factory or warehouse environment. Ideally suited for loading and unloading workbenches, cutting machines, lasers, routers and the like. Normally required or supplied as a unit using compressed air supply (Shop air 2.5cfm @ 80psi) but also available as a fully self contained battery powered unit with no need for power or air from the crane. Tilt and slew functions plus various pad layouts available to suit individual customers requirements. For applications in a smaller environment or where there is no need for an overhead gantry or crane and for those requiring a fixed system to move materials within a 4000mm arc we provide a complete Jib/lifter package, supplied in kit form ready to install.
Forklift Units FVL are proving to be the most versatile and cost efficient vacuum lifters on today's market. The units are fully self contained only requiring charging via a 240V charger when not in use. Having the ability to move freely around the work area eliminates the need for a jib or crane. The units are available with or without tilt, both manual and powered. Slew is also available giving even greater flexibility when placing product vertically or on uneven surfaces. The spine of the Vacuum lifting unit has lifting holes that enable the unit to be used in conjunction with a jib. This provides the greatest flexibility of the Vacuum lifting range.when not in use, the Vacuum lifting unit can be placed back on its legs keeping the vacuum pads clear of the floor. FVL's are a total solution for the need to move sheet or plate stock around your site, giving greater flexibility, time management and added safety to your business. A must have for every workshop.
Shop compressed air is the simplest and most cost effective way of powering your Vaclift. Compressed air supply from a compressor via an air line to the unit gives unlimited lifts and movements. Powered by a venturi with no moving parts and only requiring approximately 2.5 cubic feet of air per minute, Vacuum lifting units using compressed air have proven to be smooth operating and long lasting. The Vacuum lifting unit control module carries all the audible alarms and lights to indicate when the Vaclift is ready to lift or when there is a reduction in vacuum. The fully vulcanised high capacity suction pads give superior lifting capabilities and unsurpassed durability. The units have been designed to work in industries with very abrasive conditions such as waterjet cutting, plasma cutting, routing, stone and glass industries. Being non electric they can also be used in hazardous industries such as petrochemical and wet environments. With lifting capacities of 250Kg and upwards, there is a Vacuum lifting unit compressed air model to fit almost any lifting need.
Vikayen Supplies vacuum units are available to lift any size or weight loads as required, at no additional design cost Vaclift will be optioned to suit our customers individual requirements. Shown here is one of our smaller range Vaclift units (Model CVL350PT) moving glass on to a Water jet for cutting to shape. With the use of Vacuum Lifting unit glass plates can be handled easily. Options include power tilt through 90 degrees as demonstrated, 180 degree slew or vertical tilt is also available. Units are offered with either standard Hi Vac pads or custom contour pads to best suit the application. For maximum safety and the avoidance of any operational association between electricity and wet conditions common to industry, Vacuum Lifting unit are offered with either compressed air or self contained battery powered systems. Viakayen Supplies specialize in manufacture of vacuum material handling equipment for lifting of non porous materials including Glass, Stone, Steel, Rubber, composite panels and many other sheet materials. We manufacture a wide range of Vacuum Lifting units currently servicing small businesses' through to some of the top world renowned companies lifting hundreds of large plates on major project.
