Drum Clamps
Drum Clamp - Forklifts are actually meant to store, move and lift products placed on pallets. For businesses which make use of drums, they often need an attachment to handle lifting, moving and storing them. There are some various attachments which a company can utilize for all of your drum storing, lifting and moving needs. These attachments are specifically used to be able to deal with drum containers - thus there is no risk of damage to the product or drum container whenever they are lifted, stored or moved.
Drum Positioner And Grab
The drum positioner can be utilized to load and unload drums off of racks, drum stands and vehicles. These are obtainable in three or four tine models. This particular attachment is totally mechanical, therefore enabling the operator 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 utilized for drum pyramid stacking.
The drum grab is fork designed and mounted with the sole objective of handling steel drums that have rolling hoops. Although the reason for the design was to handle steel drums with rolling hoops, the drum grab could accommodate the transporting of large and extra large plastic drums. Drum capacity maximum is 210 liters for steel drums with rolling hoops and 220 liters for plastic drums.
The Rotator
The drum rotator is a lift truck accessory which mounts on to the forks themselves. The purpose of the drum rotator is to be able to pick up the drum and turn it upside down. The drum fits in to the rotator utilizing a steel clamp that fits over the middle of the drum. The rotation is performed by either a continuous loop chain or a crank handle. The crank handle is meant for operations which take place beneath shoulder level. For operations which must happen above shoulder level, the continuous loop chain will be utilized.
The drum tines are simple fork or carriage mounted accessories. They are utilized for unstacking and stacking 210-liter metal drums. Stacking requires nothing fancy, just simple horizontal positioning of the drums. The carriage-mounted attachments decrease the load center of the drums.
Automatic Tongs
Drum tongs are accessible in semi-automatic and automatic models. They are for use in the open topped or tight head steel drum styles. The drum forceps can be connected in a couple of ways to the lift truck. One way is to connect them beneath a fork-mounted hook. One more way is to connect them to a fork-mounted jib or a carriage mounted jib. Either the semi automatic and the automatic have a drum capacity of 210 liters. With the automatic, there is no need for the operator to ever leave the seat of the lift truck.
Rim Grip Handler
When drums require storage space with inadequate spacing available, the Rim Grip Drum Handler is the best alternative in drum forklift attachments. This accessory will work for both the two hundred ten liter drums as well as one hundred twenty liter drums. The Rim Grip Handler works by using metal jaws to hold the rim of the drum. It picks the drum up and sets it down without needing any space between all the drums. The average model utilized in the industry is a zinc-plated handler, even if, this particular attachment comes obtainable in stainless steel for the food and drink industry.
