Feeding options Vacuum can be generated by an electric vacuum pump or a compressed-air Venturi vacuum generator. Typical supply includes electric pump + connecting pipe + suction pads. Pumps can be supplied single-phase, DC (for forklifts and hydraulic cranes) or internal combustion for special applications; pump-mounted or remote installation possible.
Additional notes Multiple suction pad layouts are available to adapt the lifter to different workpieces and gripping areas. Special configurations and multi-pad units with manual tilting can be supplied on request.
