Mechanical clamps for lifting unit

Find dealers

Mechanical grippers can be mounted instead of vacuum suction plates onto the vacuum hose lifter. In this scenario, the vacuum energy is lifting the products whilst the mechanical gripper grabs the product. In this case, the sensitive speed control of lifting and lowering by the vacuum hose lifter is obtained.

Technical details

UZ-BV: universal kerb stone clamp specially designed to grab the kerbs crossway. This is how curved kerb stones with different radiuses can be handled.
VZ-BV-98/100: this clamp has been specially designed to cope with the rare cases when kerb stones are too porous to be lifted with vacuum, so they therefore have to be lifted mechanically.
VZ-BV-40/104: this clamp has been specially designed to cope with the rare cases when kerb stones are too porous to be lifted with vacuum, so they therefore have to be lifted mechanically.
RG-VZ: Special clamp for the laying of 1, 2 or 3 grass stone slabs in one movement.
