Schmalz 500kg Vacuum Sheet Lifter - 8-Cup Modular Beam - Dual Speed SKB Hoist

Schmalz 500kg Integrated Vacuum Lifting Package

Capacity: 500 kg (1,102 lbs) | Hoist Type: SKB Dual-Speed | Cups: 8-Cup Modular

Professional Overview

The VacuMaster Comfort series is the gold standard for damage-free handling of airtight materials. Unlike basic systems, this "Comfort" package features a proprietary operator handle that centralizes all functions. From a single ergonomic grip, the operator controls the vacuum suction, the hoist movement, and the safety release. The included SKB Series hoist is specifically engineered to communicate with the vacuum generator, ensuring the load can only be lifted when a safe vacuum level is achieved.

This 2007 Schmalz MOD-VM-COMF-500/750 is a complete, industrial-grade vacuum handling system. This package integrates the high-performance VacuMaster Comfort 8-cup lifter with a genuine Schmalz SKB dual-speed electric chain hoist, creating a seamless, "turn-key" solution for loading CNC lasers, waterjets, or glass processing lines.

Dealer Highlights

• One-Handed Operation: The integrated "Comfort" handle eliminates the need for a separate hoist pendant, significantly increasing speed and reducing operator fatigue.
• Precision Positioning: The dual-speed SKB hoist allows for rapid bulk movement and ultra-slow precision placement—critical for expensive laser-cut parts or fragile glass.
• Redundant Safety: Outfitted with a large integrated vacuum reservoir and an audible warning buzzer that provides protection against load drops in the event of a power failure.
• Modular Versatility: The 8-cup layout can be adjusted in seconds to accommodate various sheet sizes (up to 4' x 10' or 5' x 12') or narrow strips.
• Non-Marring Grip: Suction lifting preserves the integrity of polished stainless, aluminum, or coated surfaces that mechanical clamps would damage.
