Drum Clamp
Drum Clamp - Forklifts are actually used to store, move and lift items placed on pallets. For companies which make use of drums, they normally require an attachment to be able to handle lifting, moving and storing them. There are several different attachments that a business could use for all your drum storing, lifting and moving needs. These attachments are particularly used to handle drum containers - thus there is no chance of damage to the product or drum container whenever they are lifted, stored or moved.
Drum Positioner And Grab
The drum positioner is existing in three and four tine models. They are used for the unloading and loading of drums off racks, vehicles and drum stands. This particular accessory is completely mechanical, thus allowing the individual operating it to operate all from the comfort of the lift truck seat. Able to move steel, large and extra large plastic drums, its capacity is 210 liters. This accessory is intended for drum pyramid stacking.
The drum grab could be mounted to the forks, with a designed objective of dealing with steel drums that have rolling hoops. Though the original reason for the design was to handle steel drums with rolling hoops, the drum grab could help accommodate plastic drums also. Drum capacity maximum is 220 liters for plastic barrels and 210 for steel drums with rolling hoops.
The Rotator
The drum rotator is another lift truck accessory which mounts onto the forks themselves. Their objective is to pick up the drum and turn it upside down. The drum is clamped into the drum rotator with a clamp which fits around the middle of the drum. The rotation is done by either a continuous loop chain or a crank handle. The crank handle is utilized for operations which occur below shoulder level. For operations which should take place higher than shoulder level, the continual loop chain will be used.
The drum tines are carriage mounted or simple fork attachments. They are meant for unstacking and stacking 210-liter steel drums. Stacking requires nothing fancy, only simple horizontal placement of the drums. The carriage-mounted attachments decrease the load center of the drums.
Automatic Tongs
Drum tongs are available both automatic and semi-automatic units that can be utilized in the tight head and open topped steel drum styles. The drum tongs can also be connected several different ways to the lift truck. One way is to connect them underneath a fork-mounted hook. One more way is to attach them to a carriage mounted jib or a fork-mounted jib. Either the semi automatic and the automatic have a drum capacity of 210 liters. With the automatic, there is no requirement for the individual operating it to ever leave the seat of the lift truck.
Rim Grip Handler
The Rip Grip Drum Handler is the ideal option for lift truck attachments, whenever there is a necessity to stockpile drums with limited space accessible. This accessory can be used on both one hundred twenty liter and two hundred ten litter drums. The Rim Grip Handler functions by using steel jaws so as to grab the rim of the drum. It picks the drum up and sets it down without needing any space between all of the drums. The typical model used in the industry is a zinc-plated handler, even if, this particular attachment is accessible in stainless steel for the food and drink market.
