Designed to make the manual handling of glass and sheet materials safer and easier, the latest upgrades to the Veribor product line are the result of ongoing R&D from Bohle, which included feedback from a customer group that was set up to provide analysis on how the products performed in real life situations.
The results have delivered a number of enhancements, including faster suction and release times, greater resistance to dirt and dust to help ensure a longer service life and the addition of a protective ‘bumper’ to defend against damage, for instance from sharp glass edges. The new design features, which include wider gaps between the sealing lips that help to stabilise the outer edge of the rubber suction disc, also improve the efficiency of the Veribor lifters on non-glass surfaces, such as stone or metal.
The Veribor 601 and 601G lifters are suitable for load capacities of up to 120kg and feature a high visibility vacuum gauge. This is designed to prevent injuries and damage that could occur from any loss of pressure, by giving users a clear indication of the strength of the vacuum and suitability for lifting.
Bohle’s Veribor suction lifters are also designed to have a minimum 2:1 safety margin to reflect real world usage and are rigorously tested by TÜV. An independent test accreditation, the TÜV GS mark means all relevant Veribor products meet the stringent quality and safety requirements set out in the German Product Safety Act, which is recognised internationally as setting the benchmark in safety testing.
