Cleanrooms often need one trolley that works as a height-adjustable table and also carries material rolls to the machine. Two trolleys take up floor space that a cleanroom rarely has. For this project FullSharp delivered a stainless Smart Lifter electric lifting trolley that uses one mast for two quick-change tools.
The mast and base are stainless steel and the compact castors run smoothly on the epoxy floor. Lifting and lowering are electric through a pendant hung on the mast; the operator pushes the trolley into place and presses up or down.
Stainless Smart Lifter electric lifting trolley fitted with a V-shaped roll cradle on a turntable
The first tool is a lifting work table: a flat top with rollers along two edges, so goods slide on and off without lifting. Raised to working height, it serves as a bench for assembly, inspection or moving trays and boxes between stations.
To carry rolls, the operator removes the table and fits the roll cradle. This is a V-shaped tray that cradles the roll body and sits on a turntable, so the roll can be turned to line its core up with the machine shaft. Both tools plug into the same socket on the mast carriage and lock with a pin, so they swap in a few minutes without tools.
The same Smart Lifter fitted with the work table with roller edges
The work table and rotating roll cradle share one mast, so the cleanroom stores one trolley instead of two.
Stainless body is easy to wipe down, and electric lifting needs no hydraulics or compressed air in the room.
The roll sits in the V cradle; turn the turntable to align the core and slide it onto the shaft, one person can do it.
Besides the work table and rotating roll cradle in this project, FullSharp makes forks, clamps, core shafts and custom tools. All plug into the same socket on the mast, so they swap on one trolley.
The V cradle sits on a turntable, so the roll turns around a vertical axis to line the core up with the machine shaft. Rotation range and cradle size are made to each customer’s roll diameter and weight.
Yes. Stainless mast and frame, electric lifting, and smooth castors that leave no marks on epoxy floors. The trolley in this project works in a cleanroom.
