Quality Roll Handling Machines

The Electric Clamp Roll Lifter can take a roll up to 150kg weight capacity and securely clamps the roll so it can be transported safely without being damaged.  Once clamped the roll can be safely turned on the roll lifter with the electric clamp function and can be raised or lowered as required.

The Electric Core Grip Roll Lifter is an excellent tool or piece of machinery as  the steel rod can be inserted into the core of the roll and clamped on to be held tight, so the roll can be lifted and rotated at the push of a button and taken to the reel fed print equipment or wheeled to shelving areas.  The heavy duty castors easily take the weight of the roll being lifted and the roll lifter has a small foot print making it ideal for working in confined areas.

The Fixed Pole Roll Lifter is manually propelled with heavy duty braked castors and a simple push button operation.  This fixed pole roll lifter has a lift height of 1570mm and a capacity of 150kg.  Rolls of card or corrugated cardboard are just one type of roll that is conveniently lifted horizontally with this stainless steel roll lifter.

A Roll Prong Forklift Attachment can be slipped on to the forks of a forklift so the forklift can be driven up to the roll with the forklift attachment and the prong of the attachment is inserted into the core of the roll and then lifted and driven away by the forklift.  There is a safety chain for connecting the roll prong forklift attachment to the forklift making it safe to load and unload.

Roll Rotator Forklift Attachment has the ability to rotate the roll 360 degrees so the forklift can be driven up to the roll, the roll secures with a ratchet strap to hold it securely, then the roll can be lifted and rotated sideways via the manually-turned crank wheel.  This roll rotator attachment can pick up rolls from a vertical or horizontal position.

More Roll Lifter Information

Many industries will benefit from one of these roll lifting devices as many items come in a cylindrical shape with a centre core or opening.  Not only the paper and print industries but also the packaging industries, even automotive industries or tyre shops are required to lift and rotate wheels or tyres on the day to day operation of their business.  The roll lifter can lift and rotate rolls or round items with any size core or centre hole such as  a tyre or other round item can be slotted into the roll lifter and carted around, saving the operator all the lifting, physical rolling and rotating of rolls so they are transported to their destination without damage or soiling.

Care of your Roll Lifter

Full instructions should be given and training undertaken even on these simply built roll lifters as workers must always be aware of any dangers that could be encountered along the way.  As with any mechanical or hydraulically operated piece of equipment or machinery, regular oiling and maintenance must take place to ensure uninterrupted use of the roll lifters.  These roll lifters are often used in areas where cleanliness needs to be adhered to, like in food, cosmetic or pharmaceutical  operations,  and moisture should be kept away from the rolls, especially if they are being used in the paper and print industries.
