At this stage, steel sheets weigh around 100 kg and must be loaded and unloaded continuously throughout the shift. Using a crane and chains is slow and lets the sheet swing, while manual carrying is too heavy and risks pinching hands.

FullSharp suspended a pneumatic jib crane from the structure above the workstation and fitted a 100 kg vacuum lifting pad to the end of the arm. The arm rotates a full 360 degrees, so the sheet can be picked from the stack and swung directly onto the machine table, staying level and steady the whole time.

Installed Equipment

  • Suspended rotating arm: mounted to an existing beam or steel frame, rotates a full 360 degrees, and takes up no floor space.
  • Steel sheet vacuum pad: rigid lifting frame with load-rated suction cups, keeping the 100 kg sheet level throughout the lift.
  • Vacuum pump and reservoir tank: maintains stable vacuum with reserve capacity when air supply fluctuates.
  • Lifting control handle: raise and lower with one hand while the other guides the sheet.
  • Low-vacuum alarm: sounds immediately if vacuum drops below the safe threshold.

Key Specifications

  • Load capacity100 kg
  • Rotation angle360 degrees
  • Mounting typeSuspended from structure
  • Handled materialSteel sheets, flat panels

Benefits for Your Plant

Faster sheet handling

No need to hook chains or balance the load as with a crane. Press the pad onto the sheet and lift right away.

No swinging sheets

The rigid arm holds the sheet steady instead of hanging it on flexible chains. It lands in the right position on the machine table the first time.

Safer for operators

Workers no longer need to grip the sharp edges of the steel sheet. The alarm warns whenever vacuum pressure drops.

  • Steel and stainless steel sheet warehouses
  • Electrical cabinet and enclosure fabrication lines

Consulting for Your Plant

FullSharp surveys the overhead structure, checks the beam's load capacity, and measures the flatness and thickness of your steel sheets. We then finalize the pad type, number of suction cups, and arm reach to match your floor plan. Schedule a site survey with FullSharp for a specific proposal.
