Drum Clamps
Forklifts are truly used to store, move and lift products placed on pallets. For companies that use drums, they often require an attachment so as to handle moving, storing and lifting them. There are several various attachments which a business can use for all your drum lifting, moving, and storing needs. These attachments are specially designed in order to handle drum containers - hence there is no chance of damage to the product or drum container when they are stored, moved or lifted.
Drum Positioner And Grab
The drum positioner is existing in three and four tine models. They are used for the loading and unloading of drums off vehicles, drum stands and racks. This accessory is completely automatic, hence allowing the operator to be able to operate all from the comfort of the forklift seat. Able to move steel, large and extra large plastic drums, its capacity is 210 liters. This particular attachment is meant for drum pyramid stacking.
The drum grab could be mounted to the forks, with a designed purpose of handling steel drums which have rolling hoops. Even if the initial reason for the design was to deal with steel drums with rolling hoops, the drum grab could help accommodate plastic drums as well. 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 purpose is to pick up the drum and turn it upside down. The drum is clasped into the drum rotator utilizing a clamp which fits around the middle of the drum. The rotation is executed by either a continuous loop chain or a crank handle. The crank handle is utilized for operations that take place below shoulder level. For operations that should occur above shoulder level, the continuous circle chain will be used.
The drum tines are carriage mounted or simple fork accessories. They are designed for unstacking and stacking 210-liter steel drums. Stacking requires nothing elaborate, just simple horizontal placement of the drums. The carriage-mounted enhancements lessen the load center of the drums.
Automatic Tongs
Drum tongs are accessible in semi-automatic and automatic units. They are for use in the tight head or open topped steel drum styles. The drum forceps can be attached in several ways to the forklift. One way is to attach them underneath a fork-mounted hook. Another way is to connect them to a fork-mounted jib or a carriage mounted jib. Both the automatic and semi-automatic have a drum capacity of 210 liters. With the automatic, there is no requirement for the operator to ever leave the seat of the forklift.
Rim Grip Handler
The Rip Grip Drum Handler is the optimal alternative for lift truck accessories, when there is a need to stockpile drums with limited space obtainable. This particular attachment can be utilized on both 120L and 210L drums. The Rim Grip Handler functions by utilizing metal jaws in order to grab the edge of the drum. It lifts the drum and sets it down without needing any space between all of the drums. The typical unit utilized in the trade is a zinc-plated handler, although, this accessory is accessible in stainless steel for the food and drink market.
