Tectra Automation stocks and distributes vacuum lifters from vacuum lifter manufacturer Schmalz, a vacuum lifting company and one of the world's leading suppliers in automation, handling and clamping technology.
The intelligent and innovative design attributed to Schmalz’s industrial lifting equipment helps to create ergonomic work stations that meet international health and safety standards. This reduces or prevents health-related stoppages and increases productivity.
Our range of vacuum lifters can be used in many different materials handling application areas. Our vacuum lifters are divided into the two product groups – the vacuum tube lifter Jumbo and the vacuum lifting device VacuMaster, all with state-of-the-art vacuum lifter parts.
Vacuum tube lifters Jumbo help with handing operations with sheets, boxes, sacks, barrels, buckets, for example. The tube lifters are popular in internal logistics processes used in dispatch and picking processes.
Vacuum lifting devices VacuMaster from Schmalz are used to handle sheet metal, wood or plastic sheets, barrels and windows and glass sheets. Heavy loads of up to 750 kg may be handled comfortably and safely using the lifting devices

VIEW PRODUCTOur vacuum lifters are very versatile: the vacuum tube lifter Jumbo is suitable for a variety of intra-logistic materials handling tasks, while the vacuum lifting device VacuMaster can be used in a variety of production processes. Used correctly, these are the ideal lifting equipment solutions.
VacuMaster has a modular design with basic modules like operator handles, load beams and suction plates that allow for customised configuration. Suction force is generated by the vacuum generator and transferred to the workpiece via the suction plates. For safety purposes, the aluminium load beam also serves as a vacuum reservoir. A chain hoist is required for lifting or lowering motion.
