These ergonomic lifting systems easily handle heavy bags. Even the most inconvenient and limited working spaces can benefit from these devices. See the Vaculex TP and Traversing Jib Crane in action.

Vaculex specially designed vacuum lifting solutions for this area to enable transferring and lifting of bags without injury.
