(PRWEB) - New to Packline Materials Handling, the double grip quick release drum lifting attachment is designed to handle drums by their rim, to prevent damage and crushing to the fragile walls of the drums. Manufactured from stainless steel this drum handling solution for thin walled drums is suitable for clean room environments such as those found in food processing and pharmaceutical industries.

This drum handling attachment was designed to handle drums by their rim. This lifting solution is suitable for lifting drums that are difficult to handle due their thin wall.

Traditional drum lifting clamp attachments will crush the wall of the drum, creating problems in lifting the drum safely.

This bespoke lifting solution involved handling drums of tomato puree; therefore the thin walled drum contained a dense and heavy substance.

The quick release drum lifting attachment with double grip, in stainless steel, safely and securely holds the drum allowing it to be transported from the pallet to the dispensing area. Constructed from stainless steel, this complete lifting solution is suitable for food and pharmaceutical production areas.

The V-shaped legs allow easy access to the corner of a pallet enabling the operator to easily manoeuvre the lifter to access and handle the drums.

The quick release grippers mean that the operator can stand behind the truck to attach, lift, lower and detach the drums. The lifter can be designed and manufactured with either manual or electric lift depending on the specific requirements.

Specifications: 
Safe Working Load: 400kg (881.8lbs) 
Drum construction: thin walled drums 
Drum shape: slightly tapered sides
