Herochu Metal Sheet Vacuum Lifters: Redefine Metal Handling Efficiency, Starting at $2,990
For metalworking shops, laser cutting facilities, and warehouse operations, moving large metal sheets—stainless steel, aluminum, carbon steel, or composite materials—has long been a slow, labor-intensive, and risky task. Manual lifting strains workers, delays production, and risks damaging expensive sheets; generic handling tools often fail to adapt to different plate sizes or weights. Herochu’s Metal Sheet Vacuum Lifters solve these challenges head-on. Engineered for precision, safety, and versatility, these lifters transform how you load, unload, and transport metal sheets—integrating seamlessly with laser cutters, warehouse storage, and factory workflows. Starting at $2,990, every model is customizable to your workshop’s unique needs, backed by CE, UE, and ISO 9001 certifications, and built to deliver consistent performance day in and day out.
Designed for Every Metal Sheet: From 300kg to 1000kg, 8mm to 20mm Thick
Herochu’s Metal Sheet Vacuum Lifters aren’t one-size-fits-all—they’re tailored to handle the full range of metal sheet sizes and weights common in industrial settings. Our five standard models cover everything from lightweight 8mm aluminum plates to heavy 20mm carbon steel sheets, ensuring you find the perfect fit for your operation:
- HC-PR3015-300: Ideal for small to mid-sized shops, this lifter handles up to 300kg, fits sheets as narrow as 1250x1250mm and as wide as 3000x1250mm, and uses 8 suction cups (200mm diameter) for secure grip on 8mm-thick plates.
- HC-PR3015-500: Step up to 500kg capacity with this model, designed for 12mm-thick sheets (still 3000x1250mm max width) and the same reliable 8x200mm suction cups—perfect for shops scaling up production.
- HC-PR3015-1000: For heavy-duty tasks, this lifter handles 1000kg and 20mm-thick sheets (3000x1250mm max), with 10 larger 250mm suction cups to distribute weight evenly and prevent sheet warping.
- HC-PR4020-300: Built for wider sheets, this 300kg model fits 4000x1250mm plates (8mm thick) with 8x200mm suction cups—ideal for facilities working on large-format projects.
- HC-PR4020-500: The widest standard model, this 500kg lifter handles 4000x1250mm sheets (12mm thick) with 8x200mm suction cups, balancing width and weight capacity for industrial-scale operations.
Every model offers flexibility beyond specs: the vacuum suction frame and cups adjust in the X-Y direction, so you can tweak the setup to fit non-standard sheet sizes—no need to invest in a new lifter if your inventory changes. Whether you’re moving 1250x1250mm stainless steel blanks or 4000x1250mm aluminum panels, Herochu’s lifters adapt to your needs.
How It Works: Vacuum Power for Safe, Seamless Handling
At the heart of every Herochu Metal Sheet Vacuum Lifter is a simple yet powerful principle: vacuum suction creates a secure, damage-free grip on metal sheets. Most models use an electric vacuum pump (AC 380V-440V, 50Hz-60Hz) as the power source, generating consistent vacuum pressure to hold sheets firmly—no scratches, no dents, no slipping. For shops without easy access to AC power, we offer optional compressed air (pneumatic) drive, ensuring the lifter fits your workshop’s existing infrastructure.
The operation is intuitive, even for new users: a specially designed suction and release control system lets you engage the vacuum with a simple trigger, lift the sheet, and release it precisely where needed—no fumbling with clamps or hooks. Many models also include an electric flip function, letting you rotate sheets 90 degrees between horizontal and vertical positions. This is a game-changer for tasks like loading vertical laser cutting machines or storing sheets upright to save warehouse space—what once took two workers and a forklift now takes one person and a lifter.
Speed is another advantage: Herochu’s lifters have short handling cycles, so you can move sheets from storage to machine (or vice versa) in seconds. They also stop at any position mid-lift, making it easy to align sheets with machine tables or stack them neatly—no rushing, no misalignment, no wasted time.
Safety First: Features That Protect Your Team and Materials
Herochu prioritizes safety above all, and our Metal Sheet Vacuum Lifters are packed with safeguards to prevent accidents and damage:
- Air Cut-Off Protection: If compressed air (for pneumatic models) or power is interrupted, the lifter maintains vacuum pressure temporarily, preventing the sheet from dropping suddenly—critical for protecting workers and materials.
- Low Vacuum Alarm: A visual and sound alert triggers if vacuum pressure drops below safe levels, warning operators to reposition the lifter or check for leaks before continuing.
- Anti-Collision Devices: Built-in bumpers prevent the lifter (and sheet) from hitting machines, walls, or other equipment—no dents to your laser cutter, no scratches on your sheets.
- Vacuum Compensation: The system automatically adjusts vacuum pressure to account for minor leaks or sheet irregularities, ensuring a stable grip even if the sheet isn’t perfectly flat.
- Imported Vacuum Components: We use high-quality, globally sourced vacuum pumps and seals to guarantee reliability—these parts reduce the risk of system failure and keep the lifter running smoothly for years.
These features aren’t just add-ons—they’re designed to meet international safety standards, so you can trust the lifter to operate safely in busy workshops, even during long shifts.
Customization: Build a Lifter That Fits Your Workshop
Herochu knows every workshop is different, which is why we offer full customization for our Metal Sheet Vacuum Lifters. Beyond adjusting suction cup positions or power sources, we can tailor the lifter to your specific use case:
- Power Options: Choose AC, DC battery (great for mobile use, like construction sites), or dual power (AC main + DC backup) to match your needs.
- Remote Controls: Opt for cable or radio remote control, letting operators stand at a safe distance while lifting—perfect for large sheets or high-lift tasks.
- Weight and Size: Need a lifter that handles more than 1000kg? Or a narrower frame to fit tight spaces between machines? Our team will design it for you.
- Ergonomics: We adjust the lifter’s height to match your operators’ comfort, ensuring no one strains their back or shoulders during long shifts. The lightweight design also reduces operator fatigue—what once felt like a chore now feels like a simple task.
We even offer case-by-case design for unique scenarios, like handling extra-thick composite materials or working in harsh environments (e.g., dusty factories or outdoor construction sites). Whatever your challenge, Herochu will build a lifter that solves it.
