Large panels need two or three people to carry, and turning them raises the risk of hitting edges and chipping corners. The processing area often cannot run power for a motorized suction unit. Every time a panel goes onto the machine table, positioning it takes time.

FullSharp installs a 500 kg jib crane with a mechanical vacuum lifter hanging below it. The hand pump creates suction, so no power source is needed at the work position. Swinging the arm carries the panel gently from the storage rack to the machine table, landing right at the edge the first time.

500kg Jib Crane with Mechanical Vacuum Lifter

Equipment Installed

  • 500 kg jib crane frame: load-bearing post and steel arm, rotating around the post to cover the area between the panel rack and the machine table.
  • Mechanical vacuum lifter: hand-operated pump, no electric motor needed, works in areas without a power source.
  • Hand-operated suction and release valves: a single lever grips or releases, for quick handling in repeated lifts.
  • Suction cup assembly: rubber pads grip the panel surface, spreading the holding force evenly without marking the finished surface.

Key Specifications

  • Jib crane load capacity500 kg

Benefits for Your Facility

Works without power

The hand pump only needs an operator, with no dependence on a power source at the location.

Accurate panel placement

The arm and suction cups keep the panel steady, landing right at the machine table edge the first time.

Simple maintenance

Few moving parts, so checking the valves and replacing the rubber pad can be done in-house.

Installation Consultation for Your Facility

FullSharp measures the panel size, weight and surface type to select the lifting pad and the arm's swing radius. Technicians check the post position, foundation and panel travel path before finalizing the plan. Contact FullSharp to schedule a site survey.
