What our Experts Think

• Reliable 500 kg Stone Handling Capacity: The Aardwolf AVLP2PRO-500 is engineered for lifting and transporting up to 500 kg (1,102 lb) of marble, granite, and similar slab materials with stable and controlled performance.
• Dual-Pad Vacuum Stability: Built with a 2-pad vacuum system, it ensures balanced grip and secure handling of both smooth and lightly textured stone surfaces, reducing slippage risk during movement.
• Pneumatic 0°–90° Tilting Function: Enables smooth transition from vertical to horizontal positioning, allowing operators to safely rotate and install slabs with improved precision and reduced manual strain.
• Compressed-Air Powered Efficiency: Operates via industrial compressed air (typically 5–6 bar range), delivering consistent suction performance for demanding fabrication and installation environments.
• Built-In Vacuum Safety Tank: Maintains suction in case of sudden pressure loss, helping prevent accidental drop incidents and improving on-site safety confidence.
• Smart Alarm Protection System: Equipped with audio-visual alerts powered by a rechargeable battery to warn operators of low vacuum levels in real time.
• Heavy-Duty Industrial Build: Designed for continuous workshop and site use, with rugged construction suited to stone fabrication, installation, and warehouse handling tasks.

Q&A

Q: What is the Aardwolf Vacuum Lifter AVLP2PRO-500?
A: The AVLP2PRO-500 is a professional pneumatic vacuum lifter designed for lifting, tilting, and transporting heavy stone slabs such as granite, marble, quartz, and engineered stone in fabrication and installation environments.

Q: What is the lifting capacity of the AVLP2PRO-500?
A: It supports up to 500 kg (1,102 lb) horizontally and around 250 kg vertically, depending on configuration and material conditions.

Q: How many vacuum pads does it use?
A: It typically features 2 large aluminum vacuum pads designed for strong grip and stable load handling on slab surfaces.

Q: Can it tilt materials?
A: Yes. It includes pneumatic 0°–90° tilting, allowing controlled transition between vertical and horizontal positions for safe handling and installation.

Q: What powers the vacuum system?
A: It operates using compressed air (around 5 bar / 72 psi) with an integrated vacuum pump system for continuous suction.

Q: What safety features are included?
A: Key safety systems include a vacuum reserve tank for emergency holding power, and an audio/visual alarm system powered by a rechargeable 12V lithium battery to monitor vacuum levels.

Q: What are its key advantages?
A: It improves slab handling safety, reduces manual lifting, increases installation speed, and provides reliable grip for heavy-duty stone fabrication workflows.

Maintenance Tips

• Inspect vacuum pads before every use for wear, cuts, deformation, or contamination that can reduce suction performance.
• Keep pads and sealing surfaces clean and dry; remove dust, slurry, oil, and stone residue after each operation.
• Check hoses, vacuum lines, and fittings regularly for leaks, cracks, or loose connections.
• Test vacuum pressure and the alarm system (audio/visual) before lifting to ensure safe operation.
• Verify the vacuum tank is functioning properly to maintain load holding in case of pressure loss.
• Inspect compressed air supply (typically ~5–6 bar system range) for stable, clean, and dry air delivery.
• Examine lifting frame, tilt mechanism (0–90°), and pad rotation system for smooth movement and structural integrity.
• Ensure all bolts, hooks, and safety components are tight and free from corrosion or fatigue.
• Never exceed the rated load capacity (typically up to 500 kg horizontal / 250 kg vertical depending on configuration).
• Store the unit in a dry, protected area and avoid prolonged exposure to moisture or harsh chemicals.
• Replace worn pads, seals, or damaged safety components immediately with approved parts only.
