Custom Gaylord Box Builder

A custom vacuum lift and pitch lifting device powered plant air which ran the venturi vacuum and pitching, rotating cylinders was integrated with a Gorbel Easy Arm Zero-Gravity PLC controlled hoist.  Because the boxes we tall and varied in pick height from the floor to 50” a floating handle was provided to keep the operators hands at a safe ergonomic level.  Because we used an extended handle, a Gorbel G-Force pendant handle was used with the tool instead of a Gorbel G-Force slide handle to give the operators leverage on the tool when it was loaded and unloaded. The lift assist was incorporated with our standard gripper safely circuit, which prevents the part from being released in mid-air. The Gorbel G-Force allows for smooth, quick, and precise lifting of boxes to assist the operators in handling the large loads.

Gorbel Pivot Pro and Vacuum Tube Lifter for Box Handling

We get many requests for vacuum tube lifters.  These can go on a standard jib but the Gorbel Pivot Pro is a much better solution in most cases.  If the operator is repetitively stacking or un-stacking boxes then this is an ideal choice.  They do not have to drag around a heavy jib arm which is especially hard once you go closer to the mast.
