Large-format panels up to 300 kg (optional 500 kg)
The UniWood UWL 3J handles large-format panels with a pneumatic tipping cylinder for vertical and horizontal transport. The individually adjustable traverse flexibly adapts to different panel formats.
The Barbaric UWL-3J is the fast variant of the proven UWL-3 vacuum lifter — designed for short cycle times and high throughput with consistently high safety. With a stronger vacuum pump, optimized control timing and reduced inflate/deflate durations, the UWL-3J achieves significantly higher cycle performance than the standard model. This makes it the first choice at cutting lines, automated CNC loading stations or in industrial series production where every second gained per panel measurably increases total output. Despite higher performance, the operating comfort and ergonomics of the UWL-3 are preserved. The UWL-3J operates with integrated pump or central compressed air connection at customer choice. Asamer supplies, installs and services Barbaric vacuum lifters for customers in CZ, SK and HU including DGUV safety inspection.
At modern CNC machining centres, cycle reliability determines machine profitability. The UWL-3J places the next panel faster, so idle times between processing cycles remain minimal. With several hundred parts per shift, time gains accumulate into significantly higher output.
Chain-beat cutting lines, double or angle saws demand high panel-feed pace from operators. The UWL-3J keeps up with the saw cycle time without the operator needing to rush — preventing errors, reducing physical strain and ensuring consistent quality throughout the shift.
Choose the UWL-3J when cycle time and throughput are the key economic parameters of your production. For classic joinery operations with mixed order structure, the UWL-3 is sufficient. For especially thin or porous panels, you additionally need UWL-3S suction technology; for very large formats and heavy industrial panels, the UWL-5 is the better choice. Asamer calculates with you in advance from which unit count per shift the surcharge for the UWL-3J pays off.
Depending on panel material and suction configuration, the UWL-3J saves several seconds per lifting cycle. In production environments with hundreds of cycles per shift this accumulates to noticeable additional output. Asamer clarifies exact values based on your panel types.
In most cases yes — the connection dimensions correspond to the UWL-3. Higher weight from the reinforced pump may require a crane load review. Asamer handles the assessment of your existing installation.
The UWL-3J pump is designed for continuous operation and has comparable maintenance intervals to the standard UWL-3. Filters and seals are replaced once a year. Asamer offers maintenance contracts with on-site spare parts stock.
