Vacuum Lifters
for Wood & Furniture
Professional handling for carpentry workshops and furniture factories. Safely transport MDF, OSB, plywood, and solid timber beams without damage.
In modern furniture production, speed and surface quality are paramount. DS System Wood Lifters eliminate the physical strain of handling large format boards (MDF, Chipboard, Plywood) and protect delicate laminated surfaces from scratches. Essential for feeding Panel Saws and CNC Nesting Centers.
Efficient CNC & Panel Saw
Loading
Loading full-size boards (e.g., 2800x2070mm) onto a vertical saw or CNC router is a back-breaking job for two people. With a vacuum lifter, one person can handle up to 1000 kg boards effortlessly, ensuring precise alignment and zero damage.
Key Benefits for Joinery
- One-Man Operation: Significantly reduce labor costs and injury risks.
- Gentle Handling: Special rubber pads protect high-gloss and laminated surfaces.

Wood Vacuum Lifter DS 250-6Universal solution (400kg) for standard furniture boards.
Handling Beams &
Raw Timber
Lifting narrow wooden beams (KVH, BSH) or raw planks requires specialized gripping technology. The device can be retrofitted with a vertical/horizontal rotation actuator, allowing for more flexible handling of the lifted material.
Porous Surfaces?
Standard rubber gaskets may not seal on rough raw wood. We use enhanced foam rubber seals to ensure a tight vacuum grip on irregular timber surfaces.

Frequently Asked Questions
About wood handling technology
Yes, but it requires specific sponge rubber pads. Our DS series can be equipped with foam rubber seals that compensate for surface irregularities on raw wood, OSB, and chipboard.
Absolutely. This is the ideal application. Vacuum lifters handle melamine, laminated, and lacquered boards without leaving any scratches, which is often a problem with manual handling.
A single operator can load full-size heavy MDF/HDF boards (up to 2800x2070mm or larger) onto the CNC router in under a minute, significantly increasing machine uptime compared to manual team lifting.
