CNC LiftArm

Applications

Widely applicable across the manufacturing industry

The CNC LiftArm is designed for diverse applications where heavy workpieces must be positioned safely, in a controlled manner, and accurately.

With CNC machines

Replaces manual lifting and speeds up loading and unloading of machining centres. CNC LiftArm positions the workpiece accurately on the machine table, even in the limited space around the machine, so the operator can start the next cycle sooner.

Front and side loading

For machines that are difficult to access from above, CNC LiftArm allows loading from the front or side.

In tight spaces

Thanks to its compact design, operators can work ergonomically and efficiently even where space is limited.

In metalworking

Ideal for moving materials efficiently between workstations. The operator lifts, rotates and places heavy workpieces without lifting by hand, which reduces physical strain during deburring, laser cutting, assembly and finishing work.

Across multiple machines

Use one LiftArm for several machines in your workshop – flexible and safe.

At welding stations

Safe and ergonomic placement and positioning of heavy workpieces.

  • Can CNC LiftArm be used for welding and assembly?

    Yes.

    CNC LiftArm can be used to lift and position heavy components at welding, fabrication and assembly workstations, reducing physical effort during handling.

  • Can CNC LiftArm handle molds, dies and tooling?

    Yes.

    CNC LiftArm is suitable for handling heavy molds, dies, machine vises, fixtures and other tooling that needs to be positioned carefully during installation or removal.

  • Can CNC LiftArm load machines with a closed roof?

    Yes.

    CNC LiftArm is particularly useful where an enclosed machine roof prevents loading from above.

    Its front- and side-loading capability allows operators to reach into the machine without relying on overhead crane access.

  • Can CNC LiftArm move workpieces around obstacles?

    Yes.

    The hydraulically operated knuckle arm allows workpieces to be moved forward, sideways and around obstacles.

    This makes it useful in workspaces where a straight lifting path is not available.

  • Why choose CNC LiftArm instead of an overhead crane?

    An overhead crane is designed to move loads across a workshop.

    When shared by multiple operators, it can create waiting times. CNC LiftArm is designed to position heavy workpieces close to the machine.

    Its compact design, long reach and front- and side-loading capability make it particularly useful where overhead access is limited.
