ANVER Vacuum Material Handling

A compressed air powered vacuum lifter for handling large cylindrical components that require close positioning into assemblies or stacking onto skids is being introduced by ANVER Corporation of Hudson, Massachusetts.

The ANVER APU Series Vacuum Lifter is designed for lifting a cylindrical component into an assembly or skid where it needs to be positioned close to others. Designed to assure they are balanced properly, it features a long, narrow suction pad with two plastic guides and an end stop that can be adjusted along a beam, and has two handles to simplify alignment.

Suitable for use under cranes, hoists, balancers, and robots, the ANVER APU Series Vacuum Lifter runs on standard shop air and includes a 9V battery operated audio-visual alarm system that senses the peak vacuum level during each lifting cycle and triggers if there is a 10% loss of vacuum with a leakage rate of less than 1-1/2” Hg per second from the peak.
