An ingenious solution to a very common problem within

any panel handling industry. The operator easily turns the
panel from horisontal to vertical position (or vice versa)
using very little force thanks to a balanced tool.
The turning motion is manual.
A release valve is used to simplify the release of the
suction cup grip on the panel.

Release valve incorporated into the 2855 panel turner

Releasing the suction cups from a large wooden panel is
sometimes a difficult task due to an insufficient amount of air
passing between the suction cups and the panel.
With a release valve, the air flow to the suction cups is temporarily
affected allowing the operator to move the tool away from the
goods.
