Fast work made easy: for palletising, transport, and packaging the ezzFAST vacuum lifter from Best Handling Technology is highly versatile.

ezzFAST is used wherever speed matters. Goods are moved quickly, safely, and ergonomically—especially between assembly stations, to test and work areas, in packaging, and for palletising and picking.

Typical packages include sacks, rolls and coils, smooth-surface products, KLTs, and cartons. With the right end effector the vacuum lifter adapts to many tasks.

ezzFAST also suits low headroom thanks to compact height-saving components. Control handles adapt to high stacks and tall cartons. Quick cup changes add flexibility. Loads can tilt and rotate, electrically or pneumatically assisted. Products up to 400 kg move safely and intuitively.

In the first example, flow assembly mounts devices. Components up to 30 kg are removed from carriers and placed in housings. Several vacuum lifters are installed at stations handling heavy loads. Each is on a slewing jib as an independent workstation.

The solution adds value three ways—safety: loads cannot drop; if the vacuum pump fails the load lowers slowly with the cup. Productivity: simple operation, high lift/lower speed, smooth crane bridges, high work rate; gripper flexibility avoids tool changes despite variety; workstation count can grow. Ergonomics: low physical strain; easy carton movement and positioning.

ezzFAST handling cartons

In shipping, ezzFAST handles and picks cartons up to 50 kg. In a fast-pick zone, different cartons are taken from source pallets to opposite target pallets to raise throughput and relieve staff.

ezzFAST in sack picking

In the fast-pick zone, paper and plastic sacks of various types move from source to target pallets—fast, intuitive pick-up and movement to boost throughput and reduce strain.

ezzFAST uses flexible end effectors, is very fast, and remains ergonomic.

Best Handling Technology’s sack solution is a twin-bridge crane with several bridges so multiple bridge+lifter systems can work in parallel. Each bridge has its own vacuum pump so workstations can be expanded.

ezzFAST is individually adaptable in many environments: safe, productive, ergonomic.

Benefits in three areas: safety—no dropping; slow descent if the pump fails. Productivity—simple operation, high speeds, smooth bridges, no tool changes despite variety, expandable workstations. Ergonomics—low strain, easy sack movement and positioning.
