The Batlift is a uniquely flexible fork truck attachment offering lifting capacities up to five tonnes and is a portable, battery-powered vacuum lifter that fits quickly and easily to fork trucks, enabling them to lift many different loads of almost every shape and size.
A particular feature of the Batlift is its ability to lift and power-tilt loads through 90º degrees. This simplifies the safe, swift and simple manoeuvring, both horizontally and vertically, of heavy and unwieldy objects such as concrete products, stone blocks and steel plates.

Adjustable vacuum pads mean that the Batlift can handle a wide range of different-sized items and a range of different weights, up to an impressive five tonnes.
The automatic battery-powered vacuum pump will run for eight hours before it needs to be recharged by the integral charger and an automatic 'low vacuum' warning is given when the power is running low.
"The Batlift is compact and easy to use," commented Colin Harper of AL-Vac, "but that doesn't mean it compromises on power.
"The Batlift attachment enables fork trucks to carry out safe and accurate lifting and tilting of heavy and awkward loads. It's a really cost-effective way to increase lifting speed, productivity and safety."
