FullSharp installed a pneumatic jib crane with a vacuum lifting pad driven by a Becker motor for fully loaded carton boxes that are bulky and heavy. The motor holds a steady vacuum all shift, the pad lifts by the lid without denting corners or scratching printed surfaces, and the operator simply pushes the arm to stack boxes on the pallet.

A fully loaded carton box is bulky and heavy - carrying it by hand easily dents the corners and damages the printed surface. Stacking it high on a pallet forces workers to stretch, and after a few hundred boxes per shift, shoulders tire and boxes get dropped.

FullSharp installs a pneumatic jib crane fitted with a vacuum lifting pad driven by a Becker motor. The pad presses onto the box lid, the motor creates a stable vacuum so the box holds firmly, and the operator simply pushes the jib arm to move the box onto the pallet.

Equipment Installed

  • Rotating column: swings freely through 180-360 degrees, covering both the pickup point and the pallet position around the column.
  • Becker vacuum motor: generates a stable vacuum, running continuously through a full shift without losing suction.
  • Vacuum pad for carton boxes: distributes suction evenly across the lid, lifting without denting or scratching the printed surface.
  • Pneumatic valve assembly: controls suction and release precisely, setting the box down exactly in place without dropping it early.
  • Powder-coated steel frame: a load-bearing structure with a clean surface, suited to packaging areas.

Benefits for Your Facility

Keeps Boxes Intact

Flat-pad suction prevents corner denting, so contents inside stay in place.

One-Person Operation

Vacuum suction carries the load, so the operator only guides direction - eliminating one lifting position entirely.

Stable Suction

The Becker motor maintains steady vacuum all shift, with no downtime waiting for pressure to recover.

Frequently asked questions

How do you lift heavy cartons without damaging the print?

A flat vacuum pad spreads suction evenly across the lid, so the box is lifted without denting corners or scratching the printed surface. Contents inside stay in place.

Why use a vacuum motor instead of compressed air?

The Becker motor in this project generates a stable vacuum continuously through a full shift, so there is no waiting for pressure to recover. FullSharp chooses the vacuum source based on the plant's power and air supply.

How wide is the working area?

The column swings 180 to 360 degrees, covering both the pickup point and the pallet position around it. One operator guides the boxes, removing a lifting position entirely.

FullSharp measures the customer's actual box dimensions and weight, checks whether the lid surface is flat enough for suction, then selects the pad size and motor capacity. We also inspect the floor before finalizing the column placement. Contact FullSharp to schedule a site survey.
