Safe and productive with vacuum technology

In the manufacture of agricultural vehicles, great importance is attached to individual configurations and superstructures. This often requires people to carry out assembly work. To make the handling of large or sharp-edged parts safer and more ergonomic, CLAAS uses vacuum lifting technology from euroTECH. The Rosenfeld specialists adapted the lifting devices from the extensive standard range precisely to the needs of CLAAS.

The agricultural machinery manufacturer CLAAS manufactures, tests and develops machines for forage harvesting and attachments for the JAGUAR forage harvester in Bad Saulgau. In addition, the forage harvesting unit - the heart of the JAGUAR - is manufactured in this production facility. In addition to state-of-the-art production facilities, the site also has one of the most modern test centers for forage harvesting technology in the world. For maize harvesting, the JAGUAR is equipped with the ORBIS header. This extremely successful product series consists of circular knife segments that rotate under plate-shaped sheet metal housings with a diameter of approx. one meter. Arranged side by side and folded out, they reach working widths of 4.50 m to 9 m.

Looking for suitable vacuum technology

In the past, the large and sharp-edged elements had to be moved by hand. In addition to the physical strain, there was always a certain safety risk when handling the sharp blades directly. Although these are usually fitted with a guard, injuries cannot be ruled out. Christian Schmidt, Head of Assembly at CLAAS, remembers the challenge: "We had the problem that we had to fit mounted disks with sharp blades onto the machines. It was clear to us that vacuum technology could be suitable here. However, it was not clear to us how to design such a device so that it would meet our requirements functionally and economically."

Full vacuum service at euroTECH

CLAAS came to the vacuum specialists at euroTECH through a recommendation. The special feature of euroTECH is that customers can choose from a range of standard devices, which can then be individually adapted. This is made possible by the company's own engineering team, which is very familiar with all the requirements of vacuum technology. In addition, euroTECH has its own production of vacuum components, which can be replaced individually. Overall, this perfect combination of standard, customization and accessories results in extremely economical and functional vacuum solutions that optimally meet the customer's needs.

Targeted adaptation

The area sales manager of euroTECH, Mirko Weinhold, recommended the vacuum lifting device eT-Hover-modesty to CLAAS. This device enables both horizontal and vertical handling and can be rotated manually or pneumatically. It is operated entirely with compressed air. With a load capacity of up to 250 kg, the device has sufficient reserves. Assembly manager Christian Schmidt describes the collaboration: "The vacuum lifting device was customized for us based on the standard. The necessary exchange with euroTECH is simply outstanding. Several variants were suggested to us, which we tried out until we had worked out the right solution for us together. Although our specific needs were taken into account, everything remained within budget. For us, the vacuum solution found by euroTECH is a considerable gain for occupational safety and the health of our employees."

Simple and safe handling

The eT-Hover-modesty is attached to an overhead crane at CLAAS. This picks up the curved round plates horizontally from a storage trestle and transports them to a work table for knife assembly. First, the loose disks without blades are lifted onto the device, followed by the blades for fastening. Finally, the entire assembly is placed on a transport rack using the same eT-Hover modesty and then mounted on the machine, again with the help of the euroTECH vacuum lifting device. All eT-Hover units are operated using a clear, ergonomically designed control unit that is intuitive to use.

Several vacuum solutions in use

Six eT-Hover models are now in use as assembly aids for the CLAAS ORBIS attachments. Some of them have also been modified for sheet metal handling. In addition, vacuum lifting devices with bellows suction cups have been supplied that can hold round pressure rollers the size of a fire extinguisher. Another device from the eT-Hover series that is used at CLAAS is the eT-Hover-allround. This device lifts parts weighing up to 500 kg and is a versatile all-rounder.

euroTECH vacuum solutions ideal for agricultural technology

This wide range of applications and the high degree of flexibility in adapting to customer requirements make euroTECH an ideal partner for agricultural technology. For another well-known agricultural machinery manufacturer, euroTECH supplies vacuum solutions that bring hoods to the vehicle at exactly the right angle for assembly. This was implemented with the eT-Hover-univac line, which is ideal for inserting sheet metal, roof superstructures or windscreens. In addition, euroTECH offers specially developed MTC protective covers for the vacuum cups, which leave virtually no marks on the elements to be lifted. These versatile features also make the eT-Hover-univac line interesting for agricultural machinery workshops, as it works efficiently and ergonomically as a self-sufficient module independent of external compressed air or power supply. Those responsible in the companies are often unaware of the many possible applications of vacuum technology or find them too complicated. With euroTECH, it is easy to find new ways to move loads intelligently.
