Drum Clamp
Drum Clamp - Forklifts are actually designed to lift, move and store items placed on pallets. For companies that utilize drums, they normally require an attachment in order to handle moving, storing and lifting them. There are several various attachments that a business can use for all your drum lifting, moving, and storing needs. These attachments are particularly used to be able to deal with drum containers - thus there is no risk of damage to the product or drum container when they are lifted, stored or moved.
Drum Positioner And Grab
The drum positioner can be used to load and unload drums off of racks, drum stands and vehicles. These are offered in three or four tine models. This particular attachment is fully mechanical, thus enabling the operator to be able 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 designed for drum pyramid stacking.
The drum grab could be mounted to the forks, with a designed objective of handling steel drums that have rolling hoops. Although the initial reason for the design was to handle 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 actually a lift truck accessory which mounts on to the forks themselves. The purpose of the drum rotator is to lift the drum and rotate it upside down. The drum fits in to the rotator utilizing a steel clamp which 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 used for operations that take place below shoulder level. For operations that should take place above shoulder level, the continuous loop chain will be utilized.
The drum tines are carriage mounted or simple fork accessories. They are utilized for stacking and unstacking 210-liter metal drums. Stacking involves nothing elaborate, just easy horizontal positioning of the drums. The carriage-mounted attachments reduce the load center of the drums.
Automatic Tongs
Drum tongs are accessible both semi-automatic and automatic models which could be used in the tight head and open topped metal drum styles. The drum tongs could even be attached several various ways to the forklift. One method is to connect them under a fork-mounted hook. Another way is to connect them to a fork-mounted jib or a carriage mounted jib. Either the automatic and semi-automatic have a drum capacity of 210 liters. With the automatic, there is no need for the person operating it to ever leave the seat of the lift truck.
Rim Grip Handler
Whenever drums require storage space with limited area available, the Rim Grip Drum Handler is the best choice in drum forklift accessories. This particular accessory would work for either the 210 L drums as well as 120 L drums. The Rim Grip Handler functions by utilizing steel jaws so as to grab the edge of the drum. It picks the drum up and sets it down without requiring any room between all of the drums. The average unit used in the industry is a zinc-plated handler, even though, this attachment comes accessible in stainless steel for the food and drink industry.
