Handling of plates and sheets, vacuum lifting
What sets Herochu apart is the speed and ease of use. There’s no need to spend minutes securing each load with hooks or straps; the vacuum engages in seconds, cutting down on cycle times for loading and unloading. For example, in a CNC laser cutting workshop, the system can lift a flat steel sheet from storage, position it precisely on the machine bed, and remove the cut piece—all in a fraction of the time it would take with manual labor. This efficiency isn’t just about speed: it also reduces downtime caused by delays, errors, or employee fatigue, turning Handling of Plates and Sheets from a bottleneck into a streamlined step.

Herochu Vacuum Lifting System: The Ultimate Solution for Handling of Plates and Sheets
Sheet metal is the backbone of countless production industries—from automotive manufacturing to construction, HVAC to appliance building. It’s ubiquitous, versatile, and essential—but it’s also a logistical challenge. Heavy, smooth-surfaced, and sharp-edged, sheet metal (whether in flat pieces or coiled strips) demands equipment built specifically for its unique properties. That’s where the Herochu Vacuum Lifting System comes in. Engineered to redefine Handling of Plates and Sheets, this solution eliminates the risks of manual labor, streamlines workflows, and protects both your team and your materials. Backed by CE, UE, and ISO 9001 certifications, it meets global quality standards, and with customization options tailored to your workshop plus a starting price of just $3,698, it’s an investment that delivers immediate returns.
Why Traditional Handling of Plates and Sheets Fails—And How Vacuum Lifting Fixes It
Factories, warehouses, and production lines face a litany of challenges when dealing with sheet metal. Manual handling is out of the question: even small flat sheets can weigh dozens of kilograms, and larger pieces or coiled strips can tip the scales at hundreds. Attempting to move them by hand leads to fatigue, injuries, and costly downtime—not to mention the risk of dropping or damaging the material. Traditional lifting tools like straps, hooks, or chains fare no better: they scratch smooth surfaces, struggle to grip sharp-edged sheets, and require time-consuming manual securing for each load. Coiled sheet metal adds another layer of complexity, with curved surfaces that defy standard gripping mechanisms.
Herochu’s Vacuum Lifting System solves all these pain points. Instead of relying on physical fasteners, it uses powerful suction to create a secure seal between the equipment and the sheet metal. Think of the force you feel when placing your hand over a vacuum cleaner nozzle—amplified exponentially. Our vacuum lifting technology generates enough suction to handle loads far beyond what manual labor or basic tools can manage, with the flexibility to adapt to both flat sheets and coiled strips (simply swap in curved suction cups for rounded surfaces). The result? Faster, safer, and more efficient Handling of Plates and Sheets, with zero damage to your valuable materials.
How Herochu’s Vacuum Lifting Works: Efficiency by Design
At the heart of our Vacuum Lifting System is a focus on simplicity and performance. The process starts with the right suction pads: made from durable, oil-resistant rubber, they form an airtight seal on sheet metal surfaces, regardless of whether the material is flat or curved. Once the pads are positioned, the system creates a vacuum—eliminating air between the pads and the sheet to generate a firm, uniform grip. Unlike straps or chains that concentrate pressure on small points (risking dents or scratches), our vacuum pads distribute force evenly across the sheet, protecting even delicate or thin materials from warping.
What sets Herochu apart is the speed and ease of use. There’s no need to spend minutes securing each load with hooks or straps; the vacuum engages in seconds, cutting down on cycle times for loading and unloading. For example, in a CNC laser cutting workshop, the system can lift a flat steel sheet from storage, position it precisely on the machine bed, and remove the cut piece—all in a fraction of the time it would take with manual labor. This efficiency isn’t just about speed: it also reduces downtime caused by delays, errors, or employee fatigue, turning Handling of Plates and Sheets from a bottleneck into a streamlined step.
Safety First: Protocols and Features to Protect Your Team
Herochu’s Vacuum Lifting System is built with safety as a non-negotiable priority. Sheet metal’s sharp edges and heavy weight make it a high-risk material to handle—but our system mitigates those risks with both design features and clear safety protocols.
First, the equipment itself includes safeguards to prevent accidents:
- Vacuum Gauge: A clear, easy-to-read gauge lets operators verify that the correct vacuum pressure has been achieved before lifting, ensuring a secure grip.
- Durable Suction Pads: Resistant to wear, tears, and industrial fluids, they maintain their seal even in busy workshop environments.
- Stable Configuration: The system’s design allows for adjustable pad placement, ensuring the load is balanced and secure—critical for preventing tipping or slipping mid-lift.
To complement these features, we recommend following basic safety steps for Handling of Plates and Sheets with vacuum lifting:
- Check Conditions: Avoid lifts in extreme temperatures, wetness, or wind (though indoor use minimizes these risks).
- Verify Load Weight: Ensure the sheet metal’s weight falls within the system’s capacity (our model handles heavy loads with ease, aligned with industrial needs).
- Inspect Pads: Conduct a pre-use check daily to look for cracks, tears, or debris on the suction pads; deeper inspections at regular intervals keep the system in top shape.
- Pre-Lift Test: After engaging the vacuum, lift the load 50mm and check the gauge again to confirm stability—never proceed if pressure is dropping.
- Monitor the Lift: Always stay with the load during movement; never leave suspended sheet metal unattended.
These steps, combined with the system’s built-in safety features, drastically reduce the risk of injuries, material damage, and downtime.
Technical Specifications: Built for Industrial Performance
Herochu’s Vacuum Lifting System is engineered to meet the demands of busy production environments, with specs that balance power, flexibility, and space efficiency:

- Horizontal Travel: 3000mm—covers wide workshop areas, reducing the need to reposition the equipment frequently.
- Power: 600w—delivers consistent suction force without draining excessive energy.
- Weight: 500kg—sturdy enough for heavy loads, yet manageable for installation and reconfiguration.
- Dimensions (LWH): 3800x1700x1700mm—compact enough to fit in most workshops, even those with limited space.
- Condition: Brand-new—built to Herochu’s strict quality standards, with no compromise on performance.
- Place of Origin: China—manufactured in facilities that adhere to global industrial best practices.
The system’s construction prioritizes durability: high-grade steel frames resist corrosion and impact, while rubber components stand up to frequent use. Whether you’re handling thin aluminum sheets or thick steel plates, the system’s power and precision ensure consistent results.
Customization, Affordability, and Support
Every workshop is unique—and Herochu’s Vacuum Lifting System is designed to adapt. We offer full customization to match your specific Handling of Plates and Sheets needs: adjust suction pad number and placement for different sheet sizes, modify travel ranges to fit your space, or integrate additional controls (like remote operation) for added convenience. Best of all, this level of customization starts at just $3,698—making industrial-grade vacuum lifting accessible to small and mid-sized businesses, not just large corporations.
To give you peace of mind, we back the system with a 1-year warranty, covering parts and labor for any defects. Our support doesn’t end with delivery: we provide installation guidance to get the system up and running quickly, operator training to ensure your team uses it safely, and responsive maintenance support to address any issues that arise. Whether you need help troubleshooting a vacuum pressure issue or want to modify the system for a new production line, our team is here to help.
