Mobile lifting column for drum handling
Streamline your powder and drum handling operations with this versatile mobile lifting column, designed to enhance production efficiency and prevent cross-contamination in high-demand environments.

Lifts and Transports Drums for Powder Applications
The Colonna Carrellata Girafusti from AGIERRE is a critical solution for efficient handling and lifting of drums and powders, specifically tailored to the pharmaceutical, chemical, and food industries. This mobile lifting column excels in environments where optimizing production flow and preventing cross-contamination are paramount, thanks to its design compliant with cGMP standards.
Equipped with a completely automated control system, it allows for precise horizontal and vertical movements through adjustable end limits, simplifying integration into existing transport or processing lines. The dual-material construction—featuring a zinc-coated carbon steel inner structure and AISI 304 stainless steel exterior—ensures robust performance and excellent corrosion resistance, suitable for ATEX-classified dusty environments.
This equipment is particularly advantageous for handling applications, like the movement of active pharmaceutical ingredients, food additives, or fine chemicals, enabling seamless transitions between different production areas with high speed and efficiency. AGIERRE offers customization options to adapt the lifting column for specific processing needs, further supported by engineering expertise to enhance your operational productivity.
