Packline Announce The Release Of The New Cradle Lifting Attachment For Handling Rolls Of Film Or Foil From The Mandrel Or Shaft

Kansas City, MO (PRWEB) - New to Packline, the roll handling equipment with cradle attachment has been designed for the lifting and loading of rolls of film or foil. The lifting attachment securely supports the roll’s mandrel or shaft at each end which enables precise loading of the roll into a processing machine from above.

The mandrel, or shaft, supporting hooks can be rotated and cleared from the roll once it is in position, this is controlled by using the handwheel. The hooks can be adjusted to accommodate various roll widths.

The length of the supporting hooks can be designed to suit the application and to avoid obstacles such as guarding.

The attachment is not designed for rotation whilst loaded. Any roll rotation of the hooks only takes place once the roll is in position and supported in its location blocks.

Together these features enable the operator to lift and position rolls with complete confidence and safety.

Used in conjunction with a dual column roll lifting machine, this attachment can safely unload rolls into the side of a production machine at height and with great stability.

This lifting solution is suitable for the food industry, pharmaceuticals and other hygienic applications.

The roll handler has a lifting capacity of up to 220.46lbs (100kg) depending upon model.

The attachment is backed up by a full bespoke design service so ensuring that the right solution can be made to suit most applications.

This stainless steel roll handling equipment is suitable for use in the following industries:

• Food
• Drinks and Beverages
• Dairy
• Pharmaceutical
• Medical
• Chemical
• FMCG (Fast Moving Consumer Goods)

The purpose-designed compact framework, positioning of handlebars and addition of an optional remote control device provide improved manoeuvrability and ease of use for the operator.

The small footprint makes this roll handling equipment highly manoeuvrable and a natural choice for today’s narrow production lines and demanding lifting requirements.
