Vacuum Lifter Crane

Reliability and adaptability

After completion of production process, the paper rolls are placed mechanically upright. A vacuum paper roll lifter crane is then positioned on top of the paper roll and the vacuum is activated producing an airtight sealed paper surface, making the roll ready for handling. The suction pad needs to be placed on top of the paper reel, which means the reels can be placed closely together, maximising storage.

A Konecranes vacuum lifter crane is a versatile, reliable, ergonomic crane for safe and fully automatic paper roll handling. The Konecranes vacuum lifter crane is designed for safer, fully automatic paper roll handling, and it includes many functions such as high handling rates, gentle gripping action, and handling wide variety of fine paper grades and roll sizes.

Customer story - Äänekoski, Finland

“We had a really tight schedule. The average delivery time for the contractors was down to four months. For Konecranes, that was not an issue, and they delivered the grip on time. We noticed that Konecranes’ people are really professional, the same professionals that we learned to appreciate the last time we worked with them, in 2008. Even our special requests were handled quickly, and production started in September, exactly on time.”

Timo Salo, Project Manager, Metsä Board
