Reel Manipulator System

Reel Manipulators

Reel manipulators are used for the safe lifting, handling, and rotation of heavy rolls. Manual handling of reels is not safe, as heavy loads create significant safety risks and inefficiencies.


Why Use a Reel Manipulator?

Reels are heavy and often unbalanced. Manual handling can lead to:

  • Instability during lifting or movement
  • Operator injuries
  • Material and product damage

How Does It Work?

A pneumatic system balances the load to ensure safe operation. A dedicated gripper securely holds the reel.

The system enables:

  • Lifting
  • Handling
  • 90° and 180° controlled rotation

Applications

  • Paper and packaging industry
  • Plastic production
  • Metal coils handling
  • Logistics and storage
