Description
Overview
The Abaco APL20-W Multi Material Automatic Lifter is intended for flat, thin and delicate sheet materials such as porcelain, glass and ceramic. Its automatic clamping mechanism grips from both sides, with white-rubber pads at the material-contact surfaces.
Features
- Aluminum construction keeps the unit comparatively light.
- Automatic clamp opening and closing.
- Two guide shafts assist positioning the lifter against the material.
- Four wheels help the lifter approach the sheet and keep it off abrasive floor particles.

- The listed work load limit is 660 lb; the lifter itself weighs 51.7 lb.
- Select this white-rubber APL20 configuration by model rather than substituting specifications from the Super Multi Material lifter series.
