Solutions to improve operational efficiency for handling bulky loads

The CRIUS series pneumatic lifts are handling systems that, thanks to their structure with rigid steel arms, allow complex rotations and inclinations to be performed, even when the load’s centre of gravity does not coincide with the centre of mass.

The ADAN series pneumatic manipulators are the ideal solution to support operators in the lifting, handling and positioning of heavy and bulky loads. Maniflex solutions with rigid articulated arms also allow a single operator to safely handle considerable loads with total control and precision, reducing the risk of injuries, optimizing working times and increasing overall productivity.

How do rigid arm pneumatic industrial manipulators work?

The ADAN series manipulators, equipped with special gripping tools, are designed to handle components whose center of gravity is offset from the vertical axis of the arm. Their structure has been designed to guarantee resistance to torsion caused by this particular condition of use, allowing the manipulation of the load in zero gravity conditions.

Installation flexibility

The ADAN series pneumatic manipulators offer different installation options to suit your space and work area layout needs. They can be mounted on columns fixed to the floor or on self-stable bases, which allow them to be moved by a forklift or pallet truck. In addition, they can be installed on the wall or on floor or ceiling rails. Upon request, additional special supports are available, customizable according to specific customer needs.

Safety and reliability

For maximum safety, the manipulators are equipped with two brakes on the main axis and the intermediate joint. Operation is provided by filtered (40 μm) and non-lubricated compressed air (min. 0.7/0.8 MPa), ensuring reliable and long-lasting operation.
