Description
Rubi SLAB TRANS Heavy Duty - N
The SLAB TRANS HEAVY DUTY N conveyor is specially designed for handling large-format ceramic sheets and tiles up to 142" inches (11.8' feet) long and 63" inches (5.25' feet) wide.
The SLAB TRANS HEAVY DUTY N can be used as a complement to the SLIM CUTTER PLUS, SLAB CUTTER, and the TC-125 cutting systems and is compatible with the SLAB CARRIAGE.
It is made up of a set of two reinforced, retractable and adjustable extruded aluminum profiles, and two perpendicular crossbars that favor the robustness and stability of the whole assembly, especially when handling the heaviest pieces.
Thanks to the 6 gray rubber-based vacuum suction cups, the installer can adjust the fixing points, ensuring the handling of the porcelain tiles without fear of the tile surface being marked.
For a correct fixation of the system, we must check that the surface of the sheet is clean of dust or other residues.
The set has 4 handles (2 per guide) that can be adjusted and positioned along the entire length of the guide, facilitating and adapting the SLAB TRANS HEAVY DUTY N to each circumstance and format.
The SLAB TRANS HEAVY DUTY N, by RUBI Tools, incorporates a practical transport bag, equipped with wheels, to facilitate both the handling of the equipment and its storage and protection.
The SLAB TRANS HEAVY DUTY N conveyor has been designed mainly for handling ceramic sheets with thicknesses of 1/4" inch (6 mm) or more. These materials, in addition to posing a challenge due to their volume (surface), are highly heavy, compared to the 0.11" or 0.19" (3 or 5 mm) sheets that, until now, we were used to. The design of the aluminum profiles of the SLAB TRANS HEAVY DUTY N gives it a maximum load capacity of up to 375lbs (170 kg).
It is important to note that this load capacity is total, so it cannot be exceeded in any case.
When talking about such high weights, and always bearing in mind that the weight of the transporter itself must be added to the handling, the fact of not exceeding the maximum single-person load should be taken into account. Therefore, in some cases, 3 or 4 operators will be necessary to guarantee safe handling.
The vacuum suction pad is a replacement for the RUBI SLAB TRANS HEAVY DUTY N conveyor. The use of this spare part makes it possible to replace the vacuum suction cups of the SLAB TRANS HEAVY DUTY N conveyor, maintaining, at all times, the original maximum load capacity of the conveyor itself.
The vacuum suction cup allows the SLAB TRANS HEAVY DUTY N conveyor to be attached to any type of surface (smooth, or rough). The vacuum suction pad for SLAB TRANS HEAVY DUTY N is sold separately and as a separate unit.
NOTE: Adding more suction pads to the SLAB TRANS HEAVY DUTY N does NOT increase the original maximum load of 375lbs (170 kg).
