At Permadur Industries, Inc., we specialize in various vacuum lift systems to meet different industrial needs. Our systems are categorized into two main groups: large vacuum lift systems and small vacuum lift systems. Each category is tailored to specific operational requirements, ensuring the efficiency, safety, and reliability of material handling processes.
Large Vacuum Lift Systems
Large vacuum lift systems are engineered to manage heavy-duty applications, typically involving oversized or weighty materials. These systems are built for robustness, power, and precision, making them ideal for industries where large-scale material movement is a daily necessity.
Key Products
- Series 114 Plate Handling System
- Overview: The Series 114 is a high-capacity vacuum lift system featuring a 3000 Power Pac and 27 neoprene vacuum pads. It is designed to handle massive plates and is supported by a 53.5' load beam with nine rotating cross-arms. The system's design allows for significant flexibility in plate size handling, making it ideal for large-scale operations(series-114).
- Use Case: This system is perfect for industries that deal with oversized plates, such as shipbuilding or large manufacturing plants.
- Series 515 Plate Handling System
- Overview: The Series 515 is another large-scale vacuum lift system with a 1500 Power Pac and 15 vacuum pads. Its 10' load beam and a combination of large and small vacuum pads make it suitable for handling 8'x12' plates up to 4" thick. This system is typically attached to a single hook crane for ease of use(series-515).
- Use Case: This system is ideal for operations requiring the movement of thick, heavy plates and is commonly used in steel fabrication and heavy construction.
- Series 612_5 Plate Handling System
- Overview: The Series 612_5 combines a 1500 Power Pac with the capacity to be suspended from the same crane as the Series 408 system. It features comprehensive control systems compatible with crane radio controls, making it a versatile and robust option for extensive material handling(series-612_5).
- Use Case: This system is well-suited for extensive material handling operations that require coordinated movement with crane systems. It provides both power and flexibility.
- Series 618 Plate Handling System
- Overview: The Series 618 is designed for strip handling. It has a 1500 Power Pac and fixed slings that enhance operation stability. It also includes six swivel cross-arms, making it adaptable for handling various strip sizes(series-618).
- Use Case: This system is particularly useful in industries requiring precise handling of long, narrow strips, such as metal fabrication.
When to Use Large Vacuum Lift Systems?
- For Handling Heavy Loads: When your operation involves moving large steel plates, oversized parts, or heavy materials, large vacuum lift systems like the Series 114 or Series 515 are essential.
- In High-Capacity Settings: These systems are ideal when high throughput and frequent heavy lifting are required, making them suitable for industries with substantial daily material loads.
Why Choose Large Vacuum Lift Systems?
- Efficiency: The power and expansive reach of systems like the Series 612_5 and Series 618 allow for the safe and quick movement of heavy materials, reducing downtime and increasing productivity.
- Safety: Features such as multiple vacuum pads and integrated control systems ensure materials remain secure even during power fluctuations, providing peace of mind during operations.
Small Vacuum Lift Systems
Small vacuum lift systems are designed for more precise, lighter-load applications. They are compact yet powerful, offering flexibility in environments where space and load size are constraints.
Key Products
- Series 204 Plate Handling System
- Overview: The Series 204 is a compact vacuum lift system with a 250 Power Pac and four vacuum pads on an 8' load beam. It's lightweight and has simple controls, making it easy to operate in smaller, confined spaces (series 204).
- Use Case: Ideal for small-scale operations or precision tasks where maneuverability and control are paramount, such as in small manufacturing facilities.
- Series 406 Plate Handling System
- Overview: The Series 406 is a slightly larger small vacuum lift system featuring a 330 Power Pac, four vacuum pads, and a 10' load beam. This system is designed to handle smaller plates up to 1-1/2" thick and includes a structural sling for added stability (series-406 and series-406-s).
- Use Case: This system is perfect for handling medium-sized plates in industries that require frequent yet manageable material movement, such as automotive parts manufacturing.
When to Use Small Vacuum Lift Systems?
- For Precision Work: Small vacuum lift systems like the Series 204 are ideal when you need to move smaller parts or materials with precision, such as in electronics manufacturing or laboratory settings. Their precision and control give you the confidence to handle delicate tasks easily.
- In Confined Spaces: These systems excel in environments where limited space and large equipment cannot be accommodated, making them practical for workshops and small production facilities.
Why Choose Small Vacuum Lift Systems?
- Versatility: Despite their size, systems like the Series 406 offer versatility in handling various materials, from small metal sheets to lightweight components. Their adaptability empowers you to handle a wide range of materials with ease.
- Ease of Use: Their compact design and simplified controls make them user-friendly, reducing the learning curve and enabling faster integration into existing workflows. Their user-friendly design reassures you that they can be easily incorporated into your operations.
Choosing the Right Vacuum Lift System
Choosing between large and small vacuum lift systems at Permadur Industries depends mainly on your specific operational needs. Large systems like the Series 114, 515, 612_5, and 618 are your best option for heavy, high-capacity applications, offering power, efficiency, and safety. On the other hand, small systems like the Series 204 and 406, while less influential, provide unmatched precision, flexibility, and ease of use in smaller or more confined environments.
