ALS Group – Lifting Equipment
The ALS Group lifting equipment line is designed to accommodate moveable drums, totes, and vats with outstanding reliability and operator safety. Each unit provides durable, ergonomic lifting support for efficient handling and positioning of mixing vessels. Lifting action may be pneumatic, counter-balanced, or mechanical, with configurations for wall, floor, or roll-around mounting.
ALS lifters are engineered to improve productivity and reduce manual handling risks. By eliminating the need for operators to manually lift and move heavy drums or totes, these units enhance safety and ease of use across all process environments. Lifting stations can also be configured to meet the unique mounting requirements of top-entry and portable mixers, regardless of impeller type.
Depending on process requirements, lifting motion may be powered pneumatically for smooth, controlled up-and-down operation, or manually via counter-balance or mechanical gear drive. Both options provide excellent control and repeatability while reducing physical strain for operators.
Three standard configurations are available:
- Wall-mounted units – ideal for compact areas where floor space is limited.
- Freestanding units – best suited for larger vessels or applications that require flexible positioning.
- Roll-around units – perfect for temporary or situational agitation setups, offering full mobility and easy storage between uses.
All ALS models are ruggedly built for industrial performance, with options for dedicated mixer stations or mobile setups. When process materials require quick repositioning or re-agitation, the ALS lifting equipment allows operators to act safely and efficiently—helping keep your production line flexible, ergonomic, and ready for the next batch.
