The Powered Drive ‘Compac’ Lifting Machine from Packline Materials Handling provides exceptional precision manoeuvrability and powered drive control for effortless reel and roll handling. Designed for applications that demand safe, efficient transport of heavy or bulky loads, this advanced lifting solution offers both forward and reverse powered movement, eliminating the need for manual propulsion.
The powered drive unit is interchangeable and can be easily fitted or removed from most models of the Packline ‘Compac’ lifter, allowing maximum flexibility across your production facility. It is particularly advantageous when loads must be moved over longer distances or when manual handling effort must be completely removed to comply with ergonomic and safety standards.
Ideal for cleanroom and high-care environments, the Powered Drive ‘Compac’ is constructed from high-grade stainless steel, making it suitable for pharmaceutical, food processing, and other hygienic industries.
This model can be equipped with any Packline attachment, including bespoke lifting solutions designed to meet specific customer requirements. The example shown features a Vertical Spindle Attachment—a fully motorised unit engineered for the safe lifting, rotation, and positioning of reels of film or foil with core diameters of 76mm (3″) or 152mm (6″).
The motorised spindle provides powered gripping, release, and rotation from vertical to horizontal positions, controlled via a convenient hand-held pendant for smooth and precise operation. The torque-limited clamping system ensures the reel is securely held without risk of over-tightening, giving operators full confidence during handling and transfer.
For enhanced versatility, the wide-leg configuration allows the lifter to straddle pallets or lower reels directly to the floor with ease.
Backed by Packline’s bespoke design service, the Powered Drive ‘Compac’ can be tailored to meet your exact requirements, ensuring the perfect handling solution for your production process. All Packline attachments are fully interchangeable and can be quickly fitted or removed using the quick-release system, maximising operational flexibility and productivity.
