Bespoke lifter from Packline
A leading manufacturer of high shear mixer heads approached Packline to assist in the development of a lifting device they could offer customers as a safe, reliable means to handle their range of mixer heads.
Using technology from their Compac Mk5 range, a purposedesigned lifting machine and attachment was designed to lift and lower the mixer head assemblies in and out of mixing vessels. And because most applications would be in clean room environments where hygiene and resistance to chemicals was of paramount importance, the lifter was produced in stainless steel and, to facilitate cleaning, built to an IP65 rating.
To allow access to large diameter mixing vessels the unit has a wide leg span. It also incorporates electrical overload trip, emergency stop button and lift/lower travel limit switches. It is also manufactured with three different attachments and caters for loads of up to 110kg .
