The GIS vacuum lifter named GN is the ideal solution for safely and ergonomically transporting slightly porous or air-permeable materials such as wooden panels, concrete, cardboard, plastics or cheese wheels. Whether in wood processing, building materials production or the food industry, the GN allows loads of up to 500 kg to be moved precisely, effortlessly and by just one person. This reduces physical strain, increases productivity and ensures a smooth flow of materials.

Individually configurable vacuum device for a wide range of applications.
The GN vacuum lifter can be flexibly adapted to the properties and shapes of the goods to be transported. The size, number and arrangement of the suction surfaces are precisely tailored to the workpiece. Nickel-plated suction surfaces with food-grade silicone seals are even available for suctioning foodstuffs. If required, individual suction surfaces can be controlled or switched off separately. Thanks to optional rotating, tilting or turning devices, transported goods can be easily aligned, tilted or turned, which is ideal for handling large-format wooden panels or bulky goods. This makes the GN a versatile vacuum device for a wide range of applications.

Complete handling system from a single source
GIS offers the GN vacuum lifter as part of a complete solution consisting of a vacuum device, electric chain hoist and matching crane system or slewing crane. In close consultation with our technicians, the system is optimally tailored to the local space conditions and operational requirements. All lifting and travelling movements can be carried out continuously via a frequency inverter on request, allowing the load to be moved gently and with low oscillation. The central control unit allows precise control of vacuum generation and all lifting and travelling movements, ensuring accurate positioning and safe transport.

Safety and reliability to the highest standards
The GN vacuum handling system complies with all safety requirements of European standard EN 13155. An integrated vacuum tank with non-return valve ensures that the load is held securely for at least five minutes even in the event of a vacuum drop and/or power failure. A visual warning indicator informs the operator in the event of vacuum loss so that the load can be set down in a controlled manner. The two-hand control prevents unintentional release of the transported goods and offers maximum safety in daily use.
