KANSAS CITY, Mo., June 17, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- New to Packline Materials Handling and Ultrasource LLC, the new stainless-steel heavy duty cradle attachment assembly is designed to handle wide and heavy rolls of film or foil and transfer the rolls from a pallet to the processing machinery leaving the roll's core free for loading onto the mandrel. Constructed from stainless steel, this roll handling solution is suitable for clean room high care environments such as those found in the food, drinks, pharmaceutical and medical industries.
The stainless heavy duty cradle attachment was designed in response to a customer in the food processing industry to handle wide and heavy rolls.
The rolls are picked up horizontally from the pallet via the mandrel inserted through the core. The rolls can be transported to the production line and lowered into place onto the mandrel frame.
The heavy-duty wide cradle assembly is designed to handle wide and heavy rolls with a roll diameter of up to 1000mm / 39.3-inches and a maximum roll length of 1100mm / 43.3-inches. A safe working load of 240kg / 529lbs can be achieved.
A larger back plate enables the attachment to handle the heavier rolls. The original aluminium back plate has been upgraded to a stainless-steel box section for a stronger construction.
In addition, the attachment wider arm construction spreads the load to enable the cradle assembly to cope with the heavier weight. Reinforcing plates on either side of the attachment connect the back plate to the cradle arms to ensure a robust construction.
The raising and lowering actions of the cradle attachment are made by a battery powered mechanism which is operated by simple 'up and down' buttons that are located ergonomically on the machine's handlebars. Ease of operation is further enhanced with a slow start feature that provides the operator with precise and accurate positioning when docking, loading and unloading.
This lifter suitable for high care, clean room environments.
The attachment is backed up by a full bespoke design service ensuring the right solution can be made to suit most applications and requirements.
All Packline attachments are fully interchangeable and can be easily fixed or removed from any model of 'Compac' lifting machine that is fitted with the quick release system.
