Drum and Barrel Handling with the Platform Attachment

The new platform attachment was designed in order to allow barrels or drums to be lifted and rotated without the use of a clamping mechanism.

This platform attachment allows the barrel or drum to be loaded easily and strapped to the side panel of the attachment. The design of the platform attachment keeps the drum or barrel in place during rotation.

In addition, a strong and durable strap, with a metal tightening mechanism, locks the barrel or drum into place.

The geared rotation mechanism allows for easy rotation of the barrel or drum at a steady and smooth rate.

The attachment has a safe working load (SWL) of 100kg.

The drum lifter with platform attachment is the ideal solution to increase efficiency and improve health and safety conditions.

‘Compac’ Platform Lifting Attachment

The platform attachment was originally specified and designed to lift electrical hardware as part of an assembly process. This bespoke lifting equipment lifts and transports the material from a trolley to a loading frame. A bespoke lifter leg arrangement was required to be suitable for close access to the trolley, whilst still maintaining stability and manoeuvrability.

The lifter’s ‘slow start’ feature allows the operator to accurately line up the lifter and material to insert into the required loading frame.

The swivel castors allowed the lifter to be moved around in tight spaces.

Specifications:

Platform dimensions: 900 x 350 mm

Safe Working Load: 150kg

Minimum Height: 176mm

Maximum Height: 1563mm
