The Vacuum Tube Lifter JumboErgo Handles Cardboard Boxes Measuring up to Four Meters in Length

Type of handling: Manual handling
Sector: Logistics
Workpiece: Cardboard boxes

The NORMBAU company is based in Renchen, Germany and is part of the Ingersoll-Rand Group. In addition to construction fittings, sanitary facilities, and electronic access control systems, they also produce handle, guardrail, and handrail systems at their location in Renchen.
These round pipe systems, which are used in construction fittings and sanitary facilities, are order picked and packaged before being delivered. In the packaging area, cardboard boxes measuring up to four meters in length must be moved from a roller belt onto pallets. The goods are then picked up by trucks and delivered to their respective destinations. In the past, two employees were necessary for moving the unwieldy cardboard boxes by hand. The sheer strain of physically carrying a total weight of 4-5 metric tons every day became the primary catalyst to purchase the Schmalz device.

The vacuum tube lifter JumboErgo 85 they ordered, is equipped with a double suction pad, which can easily lift glued, strapped, or open cardboard boxes. The vacuum tube lifter also has a beam on which the suction pads can be adjusted, which makes it convenient to handle cardboard boxes with varying lengths. The vacuum tube lifter JumboErgo can be operated by one person. To complete this Schmalz solution, a Schmalz column-mounted slewing crane SK is used, which has a customized aluminum jib length of 4,000 mm and ensures maximum flexibility and extreme ease of movement.
