01-07-2009	EVEN LONGER ROOF PANELS
	More and more longer roof panels are being used. Several years ago, 13 up to 14 metres was themaximum; whereas now, projects with lengths of 18 metres are no longer considered an exception. In many cases, the roof surface is now bridged by 1 panel, whereas previously there were 2 being used. The VIAVAC vacuum panel lifters contributed largely to make this development possible. Recently however, on various projects roof panels with a length over 20 meters have been installed using VIAVAC vacuum lifters. The length limit which is ultimately possible, is determined by what the manufacturer can produce and what can still be transported over public roads within reason. The longest panels as far as we know are recently installed with a length of 28 metres!! The VIAVAC Clad Boy seems the perfect lifting solution for this. With it's modular design, the device can be easily adapted to install these giants without problem. Watch the video here

	Unloading and in particular unloading long panel packs can cause variousproblems. Damage can occur by using lifting slings, or when fork-lift trucks or cranesare used, there is a danger of buckling as the forks cannot be wide enough fromeach other. To solve this problem, VIAVAC now offers the "PackBoy”. Hanging from the crane with this system in the standard version, packages of max. 20 metres in length and 4 tones in weight can be unloaded quickly and thenplaced in at the desired location directly with the use of the crane. VIAVAC now offers the PackBoy on hire. Consequently a safe and damage freesolution for unloading long panel packages is now available. Click here for more information.
01-07-2009	SUCTION PADS FOR SINUS PROFILE
	From an esthetical point of view, panels with awave profile are frequently used. Initially if this was mainly the case with facades, we now see this is more and more used with slope roofs. Enabling to install these panels with the use of vacuum, VIAVAC has developedsuitable suction pads for almost all the different sinus profiles available onthe market. These suction pads are now both available for sale and hire. Thus you can now also benefit the advantage of VIAVAC devices when installing panels with a sinus profile.
