Product Portfolio

  • Vacuum lifters, handling equipment, crane construction kit

  • Vacuum lifters, handling equipment, crane construction kit

    Our main focus is the development of solutions for product handling with vacuum technology. Electric chain hoists, KBK light crane system and slewing jibs are also parts of the SMI product range.
    SMI uses innovative techniques to facilitate handling operations.

      • smilift the vacuum lifter

      • smilift equipment is utilised for simple and quick product handling. The gripping and lifting of the loads is implemented by means of vacuum in a work process where only the lowest amount of steering effort is required. Whether dealing with boxes, sacks, barrels, slabs or other components, the smilift is the right solution. The equipment can also be supplied in a stainless steel design or for utilisation in explosive areas. Three models have been designed for the various requirements of the loads that are to be moved:

        • mini smilift the small companion

        • mini smilift, allows you quick and frequent movement of loads of up to 60 kg either in cartons, boxes, and bins or as individual items such as plates and machined parts.
