Packline Materials Handling announce the release of new Roll Handling Equipment

Posted on Sep 5, 2019 in Products

New to Packline Materials Handling and Ultrasource LLC is the fully motorised roll handling equipment with dual action powered lifting and rotation of large rolls of foil, film and packaging materials. This lifting equipment is manufactured mainly from stainless steel which makes it ideal for the pharmaceutical, food and drinks industries, and other hygienic applications.

The vertical spindle attachment has been designed to suit the lifting and rotation of large rolls of film, foil, paper and various packaging materials which have a core diameter of three inches (76mm) or six inches (152mm).

The dual action vertical spindle is fully motorized and allows the rolls to be lifted or lowered, as well as being rotated to and from the vertical and horizontal orientations. These actions can be carried out simultaneously.

The lifting, lowering and rotation actions are achieved via a handheld ‘pendant’ which provides the operator with easy operation and precise control.

In addition, a further powered drive is provided for the roll gripping and release actions with the rolls being securely gripped by the core. This mechanism has a torque limiter fitted so that the clamping fingers do not over or under tighten in the core.

These features combine to enable the operator to lift and handle rolls with complete confidence and safety.

The attachment has been specifically designed to provide a high load capacity with great strength and durability as well as improved wear resistance providing an enhanced ease of use with a simple and safe action.

This roll lifter has a 200 kg maximum capacity however, larger capacities and to suit greater reel widths, may be available on request.

This attachment is manufactured from stainless steel and anodised aluminium which makes it entirely suitable for the pharmaceutical and food industries and other hygienic applications. Furthermore, it is backed up by a full bespoke design service so ensuring that the right solution can be made to suit most reels.

All Packline attachments are fully interchangeable and can be easily fitted or removed from any model of Compac lifting machine that is fitted with the quick release system.
This stainless-steel roll lifting machine is suitable for use in the following industries:
