Tube Lifter
Some jobs become easier if you break the law.
THE LAW OF GRAVITY THAT IS.
Our extremely user friendly Vaculex and it’s baby brother Microlex, vacuum tube lifters make virtually any object up to 200kg feel almost weightless. You lift, move and lower the object in a single fluid action that follows the movements of your own body using only your finger for control. This means that your work is easier, more efficient and more enjoyable, and the risk of repetitive strain injuries is decreased. You also work more safely, since the Vaculex vacuum tube lifter will not lift objects it cannot handle securely. We ensure that you get the correct tube lifter for the job, with the correct accessories, that it is properly installed & we help you to use it correctly.
Could it be any easier?
If manual handling is a problem in your organisation, Vaculex and Microlex vacuum tube lifters are the solution to minimise stress and injury and maximize efficiency. Contact us for details on the nearest trained distributor to solve your handling problem.
Vaculex
Vaculex is our most heavy-duty vacuum tube lifter - a strong, versatile and userfriendly model for use with two hands and for lifts between 30 and 200 kg. Vaculex is available in six lift tube sizes, between 100 mm and 200 mm, with five different vacuum pumps and many accessories and suction feet for a virtually infinite number of combinations. Normally Vaculex is driven by an electric vacuum pump for best performance and flexibility but we can also provide pneumatic vacuum pumps if required.
Microlex
Microlex is a small, handy model, very easy to use because it can be operated with one hand for loads between 5 and 75 kg. With a pneumatic vacuum pump the unit is very easy to install, since the pump is mounted on the top swivel. A number of electric vacuum pumps are available to suit requirements.
These devices operate down to -5 degree C making them ideal in cold & cool room applications.
