How to lift and move heavy concrete slabs? Consider an Aerolift concrete slab lifter
How to lift and move heavy concrete slabs? Consider an Aerolift concrete slab lifter. You will lift, move, and even turn the concrete slabs swiftly and easily. We designed the vacuum slab lifter to fit your requirements and situation perfectly. With the right concrete slab lifting equipment you will save time, energy, and manpower during your projects.
At Aerolift we specialise in customised vacuum lifting solutions. Vacuum lifting is used in many different industries and offers unique advantages compared to other lifting methods. Especially in the precast concrete industry a vacuum slab lifter comes in handy.
Aerolift vacuum slab lifters are frequently used in large-scale construction projects. Housing construction, industrial construction, tunnel construction and stadium building are some of the examples. A major advantage is that no embedded hoist facilities are required. With no risk of damaging the load, the concrete element can simply be placed into position with a slab lifter. Furthermore, you can use a vacuum lifter at different locations during the construction process.
Demoulding of concrete becomes easy and fast with vacuum handling. Aerolift makes machines for demoulding, lifting and turning precast concrete with vacuum technology instead of demoulding and lifting with hooks in the concrete. In the classic method of demoulding concrete and lifting and moving concrete products, inserters and hooks are often used. The embeds need to be installed during production and after construction removed. Also, the hardening time before demoulding is at least 24 hours. If vacuum lifting is used instead, no embeds are required and demoulding is possible after 8 to 10 hours! Moreover, with an Aerolift vacuum lifter you demould, lift, turn, and move in one movement. Consider the efficiency improvements when using concrete slab lifting equipment!
With a weight of up to 85 tonnes, you need to be sure that your load is secure. Thanks to vacuum technology, your load is well secured even in the event of a power failure. Aerolift moves heavy loads made of many different materials, such as concrete, metal, paper rolls and others. Whether you want to move 85 kg or 85 tonnes, the vacuum technology offers controllable safety features that ensure your load is always in safe hands.
Concrete demoulding is safer than ever with vacuum handling. Vacuum handling technology works on all airtight surfaces and the surface doesn’t even have to be completely flat. In the event of a power failure, a clear audio signal follows and you have several minutes before the vacuum reaches the lower limit. This time is more than sufficient to take corrective measures and to lower the concrete block to the ground.
All our lifting devices are custom made. Which means we can customize a variety of weights, shapes, dimensions, and cut-outs. A concrete vacuum lifter is especially suited to processes of a repetitive nature. Think of the production, storage, transhipment and construction of floors, walls, staircases, sleepers, pipes, concrete piles, retaining walls, tunnel elements and tanks. The scope is endless. Besides precast concrete, Aerolift also designs vacuum lifting solutions for other industries. Inform us with the details of your products and we come up with the most suitable solution.
