Mechanical Vacuum Lifter, No Power Needed

Carrying glass, sheet metal or stone panels by hand easily slips at the edges and chips the corners. Many job sites have no nearby power outlet, and running a long extension cord is both awkward and unsafe. Tying rope around the panel is slow and leaves marks on the surface.

FullSharp supplies a mechanical vacuum lifter that creates suction with a hand pump, so no power source is needed. A pressure gauge shows when suction is sufficient before the panel is lifted. The hanging hook attaches directly to an existing hoist, jib crane or manipulator in the plant.

Mechanical Vacuum Lifter for Panels, No Power Required

Equipment Installed

Vacuum lifting pad: sealed rubber cushion that hugs a smooth flat surface, spreading the holding force evenly over the panel.
Mechanical vacuum pump: creates suction with a hand pump or lever, working in any location without power.
Suction and release valves: a single-hand lever grips or releases, for quick handling in repeated lifts.
Vacuum pressure gauge: a glance at the needle confirms sufficient suction, reducing the risk of lifting too soon.
Standard hanging hook: connects to an existing hoist, jib crane or manipulator, no need to change equipment.

Benefits for Your Facility

No power needed

The mechanical pump works on job sites, outdoor storage yards or any location without a power source.

No surface marks

Suction on the panel face replaces rope ties, so the surface and edges stay free of scratches and chips.

Easy to service

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

Installation Consultation for Your Facility

FullSharp asks about the material type, panel size and surface texture to select the pad diameter and number of suction cups. Technicians show how to check the pressure gauge and replace the rubber pad when worn. Contact FullSharp for guidance on choosing the right vacuum lifter.
