Customer's benefit

Vacuum lifters of the type GH/K are used for airtight goods such as glass, metal and plastic.

From standard products for sacks, cardboard boxes or panels, to customer-specific versions, we offer a wide range of vacuum lifting solutions.
Small transport loads with frequent handling or heavy, unwieldy transport goods with unusual handling – every vacuum system is tailored to its use and assures gentle material handling.

The vacuum production and all lifting and travelling movements are controlled with the central operating unit.
The devices are robust, durable and need little maintenance. They can be operated longitudinal or crossways, depending on the transport goods.
GIS vacuum lifters are equipped with an optical warning device as standard.

  • Control switch holder
  • Turning main traverse
  • Reinforced plug for plug connection
  • Deactivation of single suction surfaces
