SAFETY
Why vacuum lifting?
Benefits of vacuum lifting vs conventional methods
→ Eliminates the need for unsafe and time-consuming lifting mechanisms such as hooks, slings or chains
→ Less downtime between lifts
→ No need for employees to climb on trailers to attach slings or chains
→ Can lift material without displacing adjacent pieces
→ Creates a powerful positive engagement of the load (hooks, slings and chains can shift or come loose, endangering employees)
→ Reduces or eliminates need for tag line operators on the ground
→ Vacuum lifting systems are able to go where people should not be
→ Eliminates the need for costly cribbing or spacers for pipe or plate
→ Visual and audio alarms indicate unsafe lifting environments
Four Principal Compenents of Vacuum Lifting
Driven by a self-contained engine or hydraulically powered
by the host machine (electric models are also available)
Provides vacuum in the event of a power failure
Pipe, flat and specialty pads available
Easily interchangeable to lift different materials
