tim®LIFT vacuum hose lifters
The tim®LIFT vacuum hose lifters help with handling tasks, especially where heavy loads have to be lifted or transported. transported. The vacuum hose lifter is a vacuum lifting device for lifting and transporting loads. Whether stacking cardboard boxes, palletising bagged goods, transporting metal sheets or wooden boards, loading barrels or laying stone slabs, tim®LIFT vacuum hose lifters offer a cost-effective and flexible solution for almost all such handling tasks. The holding and lifting process is realised exclusively with the help of vacuum. By using the same operating lever for suction, lifting and releasing the load, particularly fast load handling is made possible. A modular principle consisting of variable basic components that can be combined in many ways makes it easy to adapt the hose lifter to individual requirements. Our tim®LIFT vacuum hose lifters "Made in Germany" are manufactured with high-quality materials throughout and are therefore characterised by a long service life.

tim®LIFT vacuum lifting beams
The tim®LIFT vacuum lifting beams are used in the handling of various materials, such as metal sheets, wooden panels and plastic panels with different dimensions and weights. However, not only flat but also round materials and special shapes can be realised. Various customer-specific solutions can be created. Standard systems from the basicLIFT product line are available for common applications. For other shapes and weights, please contact our vacuum lifting systems technical team. Core areas of TIMMER vacuum lifting technology are vacuum lifting devices such as: Lifting beams Swivel cross beams Turning beams Coil lifters Battery-operated lifting beams Traverses for porous materials Customised special solutions Advantages of the vacuum lifting technology • Fast return on investment | Due to the lower personnel requirements for handling workpieces and the associated reduction in fi xed costs, as a rule our systems pay for themselves quickly. • Save time through shorter cycle times | In addition, you will determine that signifi cant time is saved when handling the material. Cycle times are shortened through optimisation of workfl ows with the aid of the vacuum lifting systems. • Customised | If required, our systems will be adapted to your specifi c needs and requirements. • Fewer illness-related absences | The operator is spared the heavy lifting, consequently illness-related absences are reduced. Likewise, more pleasant work conditions are provided. • Low-maintenance / reliable | The devices are low-maintenance to the extent possible; by design they are robust and offer a long service life. • Material-friendly transport | Thanks to optimally confi gured vacuum grippers handling is extremely gentle on materials.

Crane systems
Crane systems are used to lift and move loads. The system includes lifting gear and load handling attachments. The lifting, lowering, trolley and slewing movements are carried out manually or power-operated. Different crane systems can cover all your operational requirements. Pillar-mounted jib cranes and wall-mounted jib cranes for loads up to 500 kg. Different versions: fixed, low profile or mobile. If bridge or suspension crane systems cannot be used due to structural circumstances, our aluminium rail systems are used. These crane systems get by either completely without foundations or with only small foundations. Rail systems are suitable for loads of up to 10,000 kg. Cranes are used to lift and move loads. Different crane systems can cover all requirements for your operational conditions. The right crane system for your application and spatial conditions is of decisive importance when designing your lifting system. Thanks to our wide range of options, we can adapt your crane system perfectly to your needs. Pillar-mounted slewing cranes and wall-mounted slewing cranes for loads up to 500 kg. Different variants such as fixed, low profile or mobile. As well as our aluminium rail systems due to structural circumstances. Please contact our Timmer service team for vacuum lifting technology.
