Packline’s vacuum lifting systems for barrels and kegs provide a safe, efficient and ergonomic solution for handling cylindrical containers in warehouse, production and cleanroom environments. Designed to reduce manual handling, these systems enable operators to lift, move and position barrels and kegs with precision and minimal physical effort.
Vacuum lifters are commonly used to transfer barrels and kegs from pallets to storage locations, processing machinery, filling lines or internal transport areas. The vacuum gripping technology delivers smooth, controlled and weightless handling, improving productivity while reducing the risk of operator injury.
With lifting capacities of up to 100kg, Packline vacuum lifters for barrels and kegs are suitable for a wide range of industrial applications. Each system can be bespoke designed to meet specific operational requirements, including lift capacity, reach, lifting height, construction materials and mounting method.
Packline offers a range of vacuum lifting solutions for barrels and kegs, ensuring the correct vacuum head, arm configuration and support structure is matched to the container size, surface condition and handling process. This results in a reliable and efficient lifting solution tailored to the working environment.
A vacuum lifter for barrels and kegs is a lifting device that uses vacuum suction to grip and lift cylindrical containers safely. It allows operators to handle barrels and kegs without manual lifting, improving safety and efficiency.
Vacuum lifters can handle a variety of barrels and kegs, including:
