Drum and Coil Handling: The Solution for Safe and Efficient Lifting
Need
Stefal is a company active since 1978 in the production of electrical wiring harnesses and electromechanical assembly for various industries.
At the heart of production, in the cutting area, the need arose for a system that would allow operators to pick up and place cable drums in the machine in total autonomy.
The challenge
- Downtime waiting for dedicated personnel.
- Lack of ergonomics in manual operation.
- Health hazards for operators, with possible excessive strain on the back.
- Reach the center of the pallet ensuring stability.
- Operate safely with stacked loads, optimizing maximum heights.
The Solution: The Customized Coil and Drum Lifter
The engineering department designed a trellis lift with two innovative options:
Lifting ropes
Ideal for hexagonal and cylindrical drums made of lightweight cardboard. The double hook distributes the weight, preventing damage to the drum and reducing sway when moving.
Gripping suction cups
Perfect for cylindrical drums with wooden lids, ensuring safe handling without risk of damage.
Benefits of the Solution
Through this solution, the company achieved:
- Increased operator autonomy
- Reduced waiting time and downtime
- Improved safety and ergonomics in lifting
Theinnovative coil and drum lifter designed by Evolift offers efficiency, safety and customization for industrial handling needs.
