With many carton boxes to move, carrying them by hand all shift tires the back and tears the box corners. The stacking location also changes with each truck run, so a fixed installation wouldn't use the machine's full capacity.

FullSharp introduced an aluminum rail jib crane on a mobile base, pushed wherever the work is. The FullSharp vacuum tube lifter grips the top of the box, lifts it, and swings it onto a pallet or conveyor with just one hand.

Equipment Installed

  • Aluminum rail arm: lightweight extruded aluminum, trolley glides smoothly, giving good reach with a light hand.
  • Hand-pushed mobile base: base with wheels and counterweight, one person can push the whole unit, with locking pins during operation.
  • FullSharp vacuum tube lifter: a pump creates vacuum inside the tube, and pulling the handle raises or lowers the box as the operator directs.
  • Carton suction head: a rubber pad suited to carton surfaces, grips firmly without denting the box lid.

  • Load handledCarton boxes

Benefits for the Plant

No more manual carrying

Vacuum suction carries the weight of the box, so the operator just guides direction and stays fresh through a full shift.

Boxes stay intact

Suction grips the flat surface of the box, no hooking or clamping, so corners and lids stay undamaged.

Moves with the work

The wheeled base lets the unit be pushed to the warehouse door, the truck side, or the end of the line as each shift requires.

Installation Consultation for Your Plant

FullSharp weighs the heaviest box, measures the box surface and paper texture to select the right suction head size. Our engineers also check the floor and aisles to determine a stable counterweight for the mobile base. Send us the box dimensions and the number of lifts per shift, and we'll recommend the right configuration.
