Vacuum and hook lifting for warehouses and distribution centres

Basic is the standard Lifts All lifting tool for frequent lifts in warehouses, packing lines and distribution centres. It can be fitted with a range of vacuum or hook attachments, so the same unit handles anything from boxes and sacks to cans, buckets and pallets. Basic lifts up to 50 kg and runs on a Bal-Trol lifting cylinder (Made in USA).

Versions according to Lifts All (Sweden) data. Contact FullSharp to choose the right version for your product and workstation.

What problem does Basic solve?

Handling cartons, crates and similar items over and over again strains the back, shoulders and wrists, even when each individual lift is light. Basic takes the weight, so the operator only guides the load. The result is a lower risk of repetitive strain injuries and more lifts per hour without extra physical load on the worker.

When is Basic used?

Basic is the right fit when lifts are frequent, loads weigh up to 50 kg and the goods are cartons, crates, pallets, sacks, cans, buckets or sheet metal. It is particularly suited to operations where lifting must be quick and smooth, for example:

  • Picking and packing cartons in distribution centres
  • Loading and unloading boxes and pallets in the warehouse
  • Handling sacks, drums, buckets and pallets in manufacturing

How does Basic work?

Place Basic against the load, press the green button to build vacuum and the tool is ready to lift. Up and down movement is controlled with proportional buttons: the further you press, the faster the load rises or lowers. The load rotates freely without limit, making exact positioning easy. The handle works equally well for right- and left-handed operators with no adjustment.

Vacuum, hook or combined – which version?

Basic comes in three versions:

  • Vacuum/hook (Multilyft Basic): a vacuum gripper and a hook in one tool. The operator lifts cartons by vacuum and switches to the hook for drums or pallets without changing tools. The hook is built in and folds down when needed, and several other hooks can be fitted.
  • Hook: a standard hook coupling without vacuum, for suspended loads such as pallets, buckets and drums.
  • Basic Baggage Lifter: for airport baggage handling, with automatic release for very fast cycles.

The vacuum/hook and hook versions are both available with a vertical or low-profile horizontal Bal-Trol (Horizontal SM) and a capacity of 35 or 50 kg.

Safety

Basic will not lift until the vacuum reaches a preset level, giving a safety factor of 2. If vacuum drops during a lift, the gripper sinks slowly to the floor, protecting both the load and the operator. The release cannot be activated while the load is in the air unless vacuum is maintained (except on the Basic Baggage Lifter).

When should Basic not be used?

Basic is not intended for loads above 50 kg. For heavier goods, choose Classic B-M or a custom-designed tool. Vacuum works best on dense, fairly smooth surfaces; for very porous or uneven surfaces, select the correct suction base or consider a mechanical gripper.

Basic has manual rotation. If the job calls for tilting or button-controlled rotation, other Lifts All models are a better match.

Key factors when choosing Basic

  • Maximum capacity: 35 or 50 kg depending on version
  • Load type: cartons, crates, pallets, sacks, drums, buckets, sheets, metal
  • Material: dense, even surfaces suit vacuum; the hook handles items that cannot be gripped by vacuum
  • Lifting frequency: built for high volumes and repetitive tasks
  • Rotation: continuous manual rotation included; motorised rotation is not available
  • Working height: tool height ranges from 683 to 1,234 mm depending on version
  • Installation: the Bal-Trol lifting cylinder is included; a jib crane or overhead rail is also required, which Lifts All can supply

How does Basic compare with other options?

As the Lifts All standard model, Basic has a shorter lead time and lower cost than a custom lifting tool. Combining vacuum and hook, it covers a wide range of tasks and suits the most common loads in warehousing and packaging.

If the lift requires tilting, powered rotation or a higher capacity, a custom-designed tool is the better choice. Lifts All design and sales engineers will propose a solution based on your load and working environment.

When is Basic right for you?

Choose Basic when loads weigh up to 50 kg, lifts are frequent and the goods are cartons, crates, pallets, sacks, drums, buckets or sheet metal parts. Choose the vacuum/hook version (Multilyft Basic) to handle several load types with different gripping methods using a single tool. Choose the hook version if you only lift suspended goods. Go for a custom tool if the load exceeds 50 kg, needs tilting or powered rotation, or does not fit any standard model. Choose the Basic Baggage Lifter for suitcases, bags and other luggage.

Frequently asked questions about the Basic vacuum gripper

What is the maximum load for Basic?

Basic is available with a maximum capacity of 35 or 50 kg. The model is selected according to the weight and type of load.

Can Basic lift pallets?

Yes. Basic with a hook or vacuum/hook configuration can lift pallets. Lifts All offers a purpose-designed hook for EU pallets.

Does Basic work on porous or uneven loads?

The vacuum version performs best on smooth surfaces. With the right attachment, such as suction pads or frames with cellular rubber, Basic can also handle some porous and uneven loads.

Which Bal-Trol is compatible with Basic?

Basic is available with a vertical Bal-Trol or a horizontal Bal-Trol (Horizontal SM). Horizontal SM is the choice where installation height is limited. Tool height ranges from 683 to 1,234 mm depending on version and Bal-Trol model.

Can the operator lift both boxes and pails with the same tool?

Yes. The vacuum/hook model (Multilyft Basic) has a built-in hook that folds down when needed, so the operator can lift cartons by vacuum and switch to the hook for drums or pallets without changing tools.

Is special training required to use Basic?

Basic is designed to be easy to learn. It is controlled with up and down buttons, and the handle suits both right- and left-handed operators without adjustment. Lifts All provides training for everyone who uses the lifting tool.
