What is the electrical power required for your extraction unit?

The power required is 3 or 4kW.

Does your equipment require a connection to the compressed air network?

In most cases, our devices do not require compressed air. However, this may be necessary in the following 2 cases, namely: for equipment with tilting and/or pneumatic clamping and for equipment equipped with a venturi to replace the suction unit. Nevertheless, in the case of an appliance equipped with a venturi, air consumption is very high and it is preferable to opt for a motorized system.

Our devices can reach a maximum load capacity of 270 kg.
