Not every workshop has a truss strong enough to carry a rail system. Many rented warehouses are not even allowed to drill into the roof structure, so equipping the packing area with lifting equipment often reaches a dead end.

FullSharp erected a freestanding 5T rail support structure on independent steel columns, carrying a vacuum tube lifter for carton boxes. The entire load rests on its own frame, so the workshop roof takes on no additional force.

5T Rail Freestanding Frame with Vacuum Tube Lifter for Carton Boxes

A freestanding 5T rail support structure carrying a vacuum tube lifter for carton boxes.

Equipment Installed

  • Support structure: freestanding steel columns and cross beams, bolted to the floor, not hung from the roof.
  • 5T rail system: rail hung under the frame's beams, with the trolley running along it to cover the whole work area.
  • FullSharp vacuum tube lifter: grips and lifts the box by vacuum, lowered by hand pressure.
  • Vacuum lifting pad for cartons: selected to match the box size, gripping the carton surface without deforming its walls.
  • Vacuum pump unit: placed beside the frame, with piping run neatly along the beam without blocking walkways.

Benefits for the Factory

Independent of the roof

The self-supporting frame lets rented warehouses or workshops with a weak roof still install it.

Defines the work area clearly

The frame encloses the exact packing zone, with the rail covering everything from the conveyor to the pallet.

Can be disassembled and rebuilt

When the layout changes, the frame can be taken down and re-erected at a new location.

Consulting for Your Factory

FullSharp measures the work area, clear height, and floor quality to calculate the frame. Our engineers provide a drawing of column layout, rail load, and pump position, then build and test-run the system with actual boxes.
