For overhead handling tasks, Schmalz has developed the JumboFlex High-Stack. Operators can now use the tube lifter to stack goods with a maximum weight of 45 kgs ergonomically and up to a height of 2.5 metres.

Loading pallets with cardboard boxes or sacks is tedious – especially at a height. Even with a manual lifting aid, the maximum stack height is usually 1.7 metres. This is where the new JumboFlex High-Stack proves its worth. Thanks to its long, swivel-mounted operator handle, stack heights of up to 2.5m metres can be reached ergonomically and effortlessly for the operator. Loads close to the ground can also be raised without risking injury to backs using the new tube lifter. The operator can grip goods with a minimum height of 30 centimetres using the High-Stack, while keeping the body upright. 

Like the entire JumboFlex series, the High-Stack has an ergonomic one-hand grip for controlling the tube lifter, which can be operated intuitively by both left-handed and right-handed operators. An additional handle makes it even easier to guide the tube lifter with the second hand. Customers also benefit from individual configuration options. This is because Schmalz designs the length and height of the operator handle to match the workpiece size and the required stack height.
