Anver vacuum-hoist handles metal parts without magnets

Anver Corporation introduced its VM-Series Assembly Lifter, a hoist-based, vacuum powered unit that features a custom pick-up suction pad for lifting compact metallic loads and provides a manual tilt mechanism for pick-and-place applications. Suitable for assembly operations and feeding machining centers, this lifter- tilter eliminates metal-to-metal contact and the problem of magnetization.

Allowing one person to safely handle small parts weighing up to 250 lbs., the Anver VM-Series Assembly Lifter vacuum head uses compressed air and the venturi principle for securely holding the load while the electric chain hoist provides up/down movement to maintain position without drift when stopped. A VLS-8 vacuum leakage sensor is standard for leak detection.
