Pneumatic cable manipulator (HAS)

In many production lines, lifting and positioning parts weighing from a few dozen to over a hundred kilograms often requires significant labor, poses safety risks, and affects overall productivity. The VIETMANI Cable Manipulator (HAS Series) was developed to solve this challenge using pneumatic load-balancing technology, enabling operators to move heavy loads smoothly, precisely, and effortlessly. Featuring a dual-arm and dual-cable structure, a working radius of up to 4,000 mm, a lifting stroke of 1,900 mm, and a maximum payload capacity of 160 kg, this equipment effectively meets lifting requirements across multiple industries.

What is a Cable Manipulator?

A Cable Manipulator is an assisted-lifting device that uses compressed air to balance loads, allowing operators to lift, lower, and move heavy objects gently, accurately, and safely. Instead of relying on human physical effort or entirely on hoists, the cable manipulator enables load control in a near-Zero Gravity state, significantly reducing the physical strain on the operator and enhancing work efficiency.

VIETMANI's HAS Series is designed with a double-arm and double-cable configuration, providing high stability during lifting operations. The device uses compressed air as its power source and integrates control modes such as Balancer and Auto Balancer, facilitating automatic load balancing and supporting precise operations even during continuous workflow. This design is particularly well-suited for repetitive lifting tasks on production lines.

With payload capacities ranging from 40 to 160 kg, a working radius of up to 4,000 mm, and a maximum lifting stroke of 1,900 mm, VIETMANI cable manipulators meet diverse lifting needs in mechanical manufacturing, automotive assembly, electronics, packaging, logistics, and various other industrial sectors. Gripping tools (end effectors) can be custom-designed for specific products, helping businesses optimize manufacturing processes, boost productivity, and ensure workplace safety.

Key Advantages of the Cable Manipulator

Designed for modern assembly lines, the VIETMANI HAS Series Cable Manipulator not only assists in lifting heavy materials but also optimizes production processes, reduces labor intensity, and improves occupational safety. With its double-arm structure combined with pneumatic balancing technology, the device delivers flexible, precise, and stable handling across a wide range of industrial applications.

• Stable Double Arm – Double Cable Structure: The Double Arm – Double Cable design distributes forces evenly, minimizes shaking, and enhances stability during lifting and lowering.
• Pneumatic Load Balancing (Zero Gravity): Minimizes physical force exerted by the operator, enabling smooth and highly accurate lifting, lowering, and positioning of loads.
• Workspace Flexibility: A working radius of up to 4,000 mm, a lifting stroke of 1,900 mm, and a rotation angle of approximately 300° make it easy to reach various stations along the production line.
• Increased Operational Productivity: Shortens lifting times, reduces labor requirements, and optimizes manufacturing efficiency.
• Guaranteed Workplace Safety: Limits manual lifting, lowering injury risks, and protecting products from impact during handling.
• Customizable for Specific Applications: Supports various payload levels from 40 to 140 kg, with diverse gripper designs and configurations tailored to each company's requirements.

What Products Can a Cable Manipulator Lift?

Thanks to its pneumatic load-balancing capabilities and custom-engineered gripping tools, VIETMANI cable manipulators can handle diverse products weighing between 40 and 160 kg across industrial production and assembly lines. The equipment is ideal for components with complex shapes, high-precision requirements, or continuous lifting cycles.

• Carton boxes
• Raw material bags
• Cargo packages/bales
• Machined sub-assemblies

Note: Each type of product is thoroughly assessed by VIETMANI to design a suitable gripper, ensuring a secure hold without deforming or compromising product quality during lifting operations.
