Manual Handling Solutions Australia
Innovative solutions for all your manual handling needs
Guardrail installation is now easier than ever before, saving countless backs.
Optimas Vacu-GR revolutionises rail handling by effortlessly lifting and transporting railings, regardless of their type – whether W-beam or Thrie-beam – with remarkable ease and precision. Its cutting-edge vacuum lifting arm adapts to various guardrail configurations, seamlessly maneuvering them to the designated installation point and securely holding them in place until they’re firmly secured. This innovative system not only enhances efficiency but also minimizes physical strain on workers, providing a safer and more ergonomic solution for rail installation tasks.
Win/Win
A crew will be able to function well with one worker less and the machine earning its cost back within 2 years, while the work becomes easier on the backs of the workers, creating more longevity for the business.
