German or U.S. oil-free vacuum pump—perfectly sized to cup ratio
Every Herochu Cantilever Crane is fitted with an imported oil-free vacuum pump that delivers continuous 85 % vacuum while consuming up to 40 % less energy than conventional rotary vane units. The pump-to-cup ratio is calculated by our in-house simulation software to guarantee ≥ 4× safety factor on the heaviest load, even during a temporary power drop.
Adjustable suction cup matrix for warp compensation
Warped or bowed sheets are no problem. Each suction cup rides on a telescopic support with 120 mm of independent travel and ±15° swivel. Simply dial in the contour profile on the HMI, and the cups self-level to maintain uniform vacuum without scratching coated or low-E surfaces. When the job changes, reposition the entire matrix along the anodized aluminum cross-beam—no tools required.
Modular cantilever arm—length, height, and rotation on demand
Need to reach over a 1.2 m conveyor or load a 4-axis CNC? Specify arm lengths from 2 m to 6 m, column heights up to 4 m, and 270° powered or 360° manual rotation. All joints use sealed ball-bearing turntables for effortless articulation and 5-year maintenance-free service life.
Built-in safety systems that protect people, product, and profit
• Air-shutoff protection: if shop air drops below 5 bar, the system locks the load and triggers an audible alarm.
• Anti-collision devices: optical strips along the boom detect obstructions within 500 mm and decelerate automatically.
• Dual-circuit vacuum: independent channels ensure that even if one cup fails, the load remains secure.
• Emergency drop-stop: a mushroom-head E-stop halts all motion and seals vacuum for at least 15 minutes.
Real-world performance metrics
Cycle time: 25–35 seconds per sheet on a typical 3 000 × 1 500 mm glass lite
Energy consumption: 0.6 kW electric or 120 L/min @ 6 bar pneumatic
Footprint: 600 × 600 mm base plate anchors to any 150 mm concrete floor—no civil work required
Noise level: < 62 dB(A) at 1 m—quieter than a household refrigerator
Customization without limits
• Stainless-steel build for food-grade or clean-room environments
• Explosion-proof motors for solvent-based coating lines
• Remote pendant or wireless joystick control
• Integration with AGV or overhead crane traffic management systems
• Color-match to corporate branding and safety lines
