Technical Specifications

  • Maximum Lift Capacity: 225kg
  • Rotation: Fully powered, 180°

  • Origin: Designed and manufactured in the UK
  • Ideal For: Industrial manufacturing, food processing,  pharmaceutical, medical, and FMCG industries

Packline’s stainless steel Mauser drum lifter is a safe, hygienic, and efficient solution for handling O-Top™ (egg-shaped) drums. Designed for industries such as food, pharmaceutical, chemical, and cleanroom manufacturing, this lifting system eliminates the risks associated with manual handling and ensures precise, controlled drum movement.

Mauser drums feature a tapered shape, with a smaller base diameter than the body, making them difficult to manage using standard drum handling equipment. Without the right attachment, these drums are prone to slipping or tipping, which can lead to spills, product waste, and safety hazards.

Key Features of Packline’s Mauser Drum Lifter

  • Stainless steel construction – suitable for hygienic and washdown environments
  • Custom-designed gripping system – securely holds tapered drums by the rim or body
  • Automatic secure locking – drums are gripped firmly during lifting and release safely when lowered
  • Battery-powered lift mechanism – controlled by ergonomic “up and down” buttons on the lifter’s handlebars
  • Smooth, controlled rotation and transfer – ideal for loading, unloading, or repositioning drums
  • Improves operator safety by reducing manual handling
  • Prevents spills and product loss during lifting or transfer
  • Provides hygienic handling in industries with strict cleanliness standards
  • Fully interchangeable with Packline’s Compac lifters using the quick release system

Packline offers bespoke drum handling attachments designed specifically for Mauser drums in a range of sizes and capacities. Larger load requirements can also be accommodated on request.
