Herochu Metal Sheet Handling Equipment: Industrial-Grade Vacuum Lifter for Streamlined Sheet Metal Operations
For workshops, manufacturing plants, and fabrication facilities that rely on efficient, damage-free sheet metal handling, the Herochu Metal Sheet Handling Equipment emerges as a game-changing solution. Designed specifically to tackle the unique challenges of loading and unloading sheet metal, stainless steel, steel, aluminum, and non-ferrous materials from cutting machines, this vacuum-powered system eliminates the inefficiencies of manual labor and the risks of material damage associated with generic lifting tools. Backed by CE, UE, and ISO 9001 certifications, it meets global quality and safety standards—ensuring consistent performance in even the most demanding industrial settings. Best of all, it’s fully customizable to fit your workshop’s layout and workflow, with pricing starting at just $3,698.
Engineered for Versatility: Adaptable to Any Sheet Metal Size
One of the standout strengths of the Herochu Metal Sheet Handling Equipment is its ability to adapt to diverse sheet metal dimensions—making it a flexible asset for facilities handling varying workloads. The system features 8 suction pads mounted on 4 adjustable arms, which slide along a horizontally fixed main crossbeam (available in a standard 2500mm length) to match the size of your sheet metal. Whether you’re working with small panels or full-size sheets up to 3000x1500mm (the maximum liftable format), you can reposition the suction pads quickly to ensure secure, even gripping.
The suction pads themselves are crafted from vulcanized oil-resistant rubber—a durable material that stands up to frequent use and industrial fluids, while also preventing scratches or dents on delicate sheet surfaces. Each pad is equipped with a spring system, a critical design element that compensates for the natural bending of thin sheets. This ensures proper load balancing throughout the entire handling process, even when moving the thinnest metal sheets—effectively eliminating the risk of load warping or damage that can occur with rigid lifting tools.
Compact Design for Low-Ceiling Environments
Many industrial facilities face space constraints, particularly when it comes to ceiling height—a challenge that the Herochu Metal Sheet Handling Equipment addresses head-on. Its unique lowered and compact frame structure boasts a reduced height of only 415mm, allowing it to operate seamlessly in areas with low ceilings or overhead obstacles. This design doesn’t compromise on performance, though: the main crossbeam (500mm long in its core configuration) is pressurized and functions as a built-in vacuum reservoir, optimizing both the weight and dimensions of the system. At just 500kg total weight and with overall dimensions of 3800x1700x1700mm, the equipment fits easily into most workshop layouts without requiring extensive reconfiguration.
The horizontal movement capability of the system further enhances its usability, enabling precise positioning of sheet metal onto cutting machines, bending presses, or storage racks. This precision reduces the time spent adjusting materials manually, cutting down on production bottlenecks and improving overall workflow efficiency.
Pneumatic Power: Reliable Performance for Industrial Use
The Herochu Metal Sheet Handling Equipment is powered by compressed air—a choice that aligns with the demands of industrial environments. Pneumatic power is ideal for use with jib cranes or other lifting means connected to a workshop compressor, eliminating the need for complex electrical setups or battery replacements. The system’s 600w power output ensures consistent suction force, even when handling maximum loads of 600kg—more than enough for heavy steel sheets or stacked aluminum panels.
A sliding valve controls both suction and release, making operation intuitive: with a simple adjustment, operators can engage the vacuum to grip sheets or release it to set materials down precisely. The pneumatic design also minimizes maintenance needs, as it has fewer moving parts than electric systems and is less susceptible to wear from dust or debris common in fabrication shops.
Safety First: Protecting Operators and Materials
Safety is embedded in every component of the Herochu Metal Sheet Handling Equipment. The system features a comprehensive safety package to prevent accidents and material loss:
Audiovisual Alarm System: Warns operators of potential issues (such as low vacuum pressure) in real time, allowing for immediate action before problems escalate.
Colored Scaled Vacuum Gauge: Provides clear visibility of vacuum levels in the circuit when suction is engaged, so operators can confirm a secure grip before moving loads.
Non-Return Valve: Prevents vacuum loss in the event of a temporary supply interruption, keeping sheets securely held until power is restored.
Vacuum Filter: Protects the internal circuit from dust, condensation, and debris—ensuring consistent performance and extending the life of the system.
These features work together to create a safe working environment: operators can handle heavy sheets with confidence, knowing the equipment will alert them to risks, and sensitive materials remain protected from drops or damage.
Technical Specifications: Built for Industrial Durability
Every detail of the Herochu Metal Sheet Handling Equipment is engineered for durability and performance. Key technical attributes include:
Vertical Travel: 1850mm (enough to reach most machine beds and storage shelves).
Horizontal Travel: 3000mm (enabling wide coverage across workshop floors).
Max Capacity: 600kg (handles heavy-duty loads with ease).
