The Roll Lightweight Stainless Steel Electric Lifter is an agile roll lifter designed for roll handling and web handling in washdown or clean production areas. Built in stainless steel for corrosion resistance, it suits packaging, converting, printing and film operations where rolls need to be moved between unwind/rewind stations, slitters, benches and packing lines without bringing heavy-duty bulk into tight work zones.

Electric lift gives smooth height control for safer loading and positioning of rolls, helping reduce manual strain and improving alignment at the machine interface. The lightweight format stays manoeuvrable through narrow aisles and around fixed equipment—ideal for frequent changeovers and short transfers on busy floors.

Core gripper and boom options let you match the pickup method to the roll format and workflow. Whether you’re lifting a cored roll for controlled placement or supporting roll presentation at a process point, the right attachment improves stability and keeps handling predictable.

For higher capacity or more demanding duty cycles, step up to the heavy-duty roll lifter. Where washdown isn’t required, the lightweight steel roll lifter is the more economical alternative. For range guidance, see Sitecraft’s purpose-built lifters page.

• Attachments (primary lever) – Configure for roll format and machine handover using boom and core gripper options (manual to electric).
• Mast / lift height options – Mast configurations up to 2050mm for benches, unwind stands and packing lines.
• Controls – Electric lift controls for controlled raise/lower and accurate placement.
• Leg / base configuration – Base setup to suit access around machine frames and stability at load height.
• Castor options – 75mm swivel front castors; rear swivel or fixed up to 125mm to suit steering preference and floor conditions.
• Capacity alignment – Rated up to 125kg; attachment choice and roll geometry influence handling stability and use-case fit.

Attachment Options for Roll Handling

Boom – Tube Ø35
For supporting and presenting rolls where a simple, direct pickup suits the process point (loading, staging, alignment).

Manual Core Gripper for Reels
For cored rolls where a straightforward, operator-controlled grip is preferred for changeovers.

Vertical Core Gripper for Reels
For maintaining roll orientation during lift and placement—useful when alignment at the machine matters.

Articulated Core Gripper for Wrapping Reel
For handling where approach angle or access is awkward around equipment, helping improve pickup in tighter spaces.

Electric Core Gripper for Reels
For faster, repeatable changeovers—powered grip can reduce effort and improve consistency across shifts.

Attachment choice changes the workflow: boom support for presentation, manual grippers for simple changeovers, or electric/vertical/articulated grippers for faster, more controlled machine loading.
