Laser-cutting, plasma-cutting and water-jet workshops that process aluminum, brass and stainless-steel sheets every day know one thing for certain: the bottleneck is rarely the cutting head—it is how fast, safe and precisely the operator can load and unload 500 kg plates. Herochu’s new line of Heavy-Duty Motorized Sheet Lifters eliminates that bottleneck, turning one operator into a one-person lifting crew while protecting both material and workforce.
Why Choose Herochu Heavy-Duty Motorized Sheet Lifters?
- Certified Safety & Global Compliance
Every manipulator arm is manufactured under the strictest quality system: CE, UE and ISO 9001 certified to guarantee electrical safety, mechanical integrity and ergonomic compliance in Europe, North America and beyond . - Made-to-Measure for YOUR Workshop
Unlike catalogue products that force you to redesign your workflow, Herochu starts with your floor plan. Cantilever length, column height, suction-cup layout and even the color of the frame can be customized. Custom pricing starts at only US$1,890, providing ROI in weeks, not years. - 500 kg Real-World Capacity
Whether you lift 4 × 2 m aluminum sheets for aerospace skins or 3 mm stainless plates for food-grade tanks, the 500 kg industrial manipulator arm handles the load without deflection. Three standard rocker-arm ratings—100 kg, 300 kg and 500 kg—share the same 3,320 mm column height, so upgrading capacity is just a bolt-on change, not a complete rebuild.

Technical Specifications at a Glance
Critical Dimension | 100 kg Model | 300 kg Model | 500 kg Model |
---|---|---|---|
Column outer diameter | 159 mm | 219 mm | 245 mm |
Column base outer diameter | 400 mm | 500 mm | 550 mm |
Main beam | 50×50 mm | 80×80 mm | 80×80 mm |
Rotation angle | 0–220 ° | 0–220 ° | 0–220 ° |
Suction-cup diameter | 150 mm | 200 mm | 200 mm |
Number of suction cups | 8 pieces | 8 pieces | 8 pieces |
Cantilever reach | 3,000 / 4,000 mm | 3,000 / 4,000 mm | 3,000 / 4,000 mm |
Each lifter includes 70 mm stroke buffer rods to absorb sheet flex, four ball valves for zone-by-zone vacuum release, and high-density sliding pads that reduce beam friction to near zero. The result is fingertip control even when the arm is fully extended.

Core Benefits for Laser-Cutting Houses
- One-Operator Workflow – Motorized vacuum engagement and 220° powered rotation mean a single technician can load a 500 kg sheet onto the shuttle table in under 60 seconds.
- Scratch-Free Handling – Closed-cell suction cups distribute force evenly, eliminating grip marks common with mechanical clamps.
- Floor-Space Friendly – The 550 mm base footprint fits between existing cutting tables, while the 4 m cantilever keeps the column out of the crane runway.
- Future-Proof Design – Need to upgrade from 300 kg to 500 kg later? Swap the rocker arm and column—no civil work, no new rails.

Ordering & Customization
Ordering is straightforward:
- Send Herochu a sketch of your workshop layout.
