Ensures correct force is applied
CONSTRUCTED TO transport anything from one to sixteen units in one single lift, appliance clamps are used for palletless transportation of white and brown goods. KAUP’s Smart Load Control system regulates the clamping force of appliance clamps according to the load being handled, ensuring the correct force is applied and removing pressure selection from the forklift truck driver.
The Smart Load Control system automatically adjusts its pressure according to the goods real weight detection. The lifting movement generates an automatic pressure adjustment until the load is lifted freely. This ensures damage free handling of goods, fast opening and closing speeds of the attachment and an energy saving of up to 30%.
Smart Load Control is the only system available on the market for large surface clamps that functions autonomously and without the intervention of the forklift hydraulic system, it works completely independently. A power supply is sufficient.
The system also eliminates another potential source of error, the forklift truck operator. The structure of the system prevents operators from intervening during the clamping process and from clamping too little or too much, thereby protecting the goods from damage.
In addition, the Smart Load Control can automatically log the clamp pressure used for each transport operation and record the data for future lifts. A record of the clamping force used and all clamping and loading patterns can be referenced at any time.
KAUP has designed this intelligent and autonomous Smart Load Control system to be compatible with their Appliance/ Carton Clamps T413G -T414. The system is available as a completely new unit or can be retrofitted to KAUP appliance clamp equipment already in use. The Smart Load Control System is available throughout the UK through B&B Attachments, KAUP’s only official UK distributor.
