(PRWEB) - New to Packline Materials Handling is the fully motorised drum lifting equipment with drum clamp attachment, designed to lift and forward tip the drum being handled. Constructed mainly from stainless steel, this drum handling equipment is suitable for clean room environments, food processing, pharmaceutical and medical processing industries.

The fully motorised drum clamp attachment is suitable for lifting and also forward tipping the drum being handled.

Both motorised clamping and motorised forward tipping can be operated via a pendant control, which is mounted to the handlebars of the drum handling equipment.

This stainless steel drum handling solution enables the operator to lift and handle a drum containing, for example, medical ingredients, raise the drum to a level above head height and then tip forward to empty the contents out onto a hopper.

Most drum sizes can be catered for, with bespoke size attachments designed and manufactured to suit the drum being handled.

This drum lifter has low profile front rocking pallet wheels, and wider legs, to suit bespoke pallet requirements.

Longer arms on the drum clamp attachment ensures that the operator only needs to access the pallet from one side to lift all drums from the pallet; rather than requiring the operator to manoeuvre the lifter around the pallet. This makes the solution easier to use in small spaces where movement of pallets is restricted.

Specifications: 

  • Maximum Capacity: 100kg / 220lbs
  • Load Centre: 871mm (34”) from front of column
  • Attachment Mass: 105kg / 231lbs
  • Main Materials: Stainless Steel 304, Aluminium 6082/T6, Delrin Polypropylene, Brass, Phosphor Bronze.
