Innovative Vacuum Lifting System Solves Client’s Assembly Line Problem


Background:  Global technology leader in designing, manufacturing, and supporting premium diesel engines.

The Problem

They needed to boost efficiency and reduce worker injuries from lifting 100-110 lb. fuel tanks. To solve this, they consulted W.W. Cannon regarding equipment that could lift and place fuel tanks for semi-trucks onto the assembly line and inside the trucks during assembly.

The Solution

W.W. Cannon’s solution was the installation of a Gorbel G Force Q2 lifter equipped with a vacuum attachment. This advanced system allows for the effortless lifting and precise horizontal placement of fuel tanks into semi-trucks during the assembly process. The Gorbel G Force Q2 lifter, with its ergonomic design and vacuum technology, enables operators to lift and maneuver naturally, as if the device were an extension of their arms.  They offer a combination of pinpoint precision and blazing speeds that traditional lifting devices can’t provide- significantly enhancing efficiency and safety, ensuring that the heavy fuel tanks are handled with ease and reducing the risk of worker injuries.
