Product Description
Vacuworx Compact Modular Vacuum Lifting System | Model CM 3 | Width 23" | Lift Capacity 6,600 lb | 10 GPM | For Skid Steer & Track Loader
DESCRIPTION
The Vacuworx CM 3 Compact Modular Vacuum Lifting System is a high-performance skid steer attachment engineered for precision, safety, and maximum productivity. Designed to handle up to 6,600 lb (3 tons), it transforms standard loaders into powerful vacuum lifting machines capable of moving concrete slabs, steel plates, pipe, granite, and heavy construction materials with ease.
Built with rugged all-steel construction, the CM 3 ensures long-term durability in demanding jobsite conditions. Its hydraulically driven vacuum pump operates efficiently using the host machine’s auxiliary hydraulics, requiring a minimum 10 GPM hydraulic flow. Despite its industrial strength, it maintains a lightweight design equivalent to a standard bucket, ensuring no loss of machine lifting capacity.
Featuring single or dual pad compatibility, wireless or manual remote operation, and quick-connect hydraulics, the CM 3 delivers unmatched versatility. It is the ideal solution for contractors seeking safer, faster, and more efficient material handling in construction, landscaping, and infrastructure projects.
Key Features
- 6,600 lb Lifting Capacity Performance Delivers powerful vacuum lifting capability of up to 6,600 lb (3 tons), enabling safe handling of heavy concrete slabs, steel plates, and construction materials while reducing reliance on chains, hooks, and manual rigging methods.
- Hydraulic Flow Efficiency Design Engineered for optimal performance using 10 GPM minimum hydraulic flow, the CM 3 integrates seamlessly with skid steers and loaders, ensuring consistent vacuum power without overloading the host machine’s hydraulic system.
- Rugged All-Steel Construction Built with heavy-duty steel materials, the CM 3 ensures maximum durability and resistance to harsh jobsite conditions, delivering long service life even in demanding construction, demolition, and infrastructure environments.
- Single or Dual Pad Flexibility Supports both single and dual pad configurations, allowing operators to lift different material sizes and weights efficiently, improving adaptability across concrete, steel, pipe, and landscaping applications.
- Wireless Remote Operation Control Available with manual or wireless remote control systems, enabling safe, precise operation from a distance while improving operator safety and jobsite efficiency during complex lifting tasks.
- No Impact on Machine Lift Capacity Designed to match the weight of a standard bucket, ensuring the skid steer or loader maintains its original lifting performance without reduced productivity or stability during operation.
- Quick-Connect Hydraulic System Includes quick-connect hydraulic hoses and factory pre-set flow control, allowing fast attachment and removal while ensuring consistent performance and reduced downtime on busy job sites.
- Vacuum Tough Seal Technology Equipped with advanced Tough Seal pads that provide superior grip on rough or uneven surfaces while preventing damage to materials like concrete, marble, granite, and steel.
- Case Drain-Free Operation Option Innovative accumulator design allows operation on machines without a case drain, increasing compatibility across a wider range of skid steers and compact loaders.
- Adjustable Dual Pad Spread System Dual pad configuration adjusts from 61 in to 85 in (outside-to-outside), enabling secure lifting of varying material dimensions for improved jobsite versatility.
- Fast Attachment System Universal mounting assembly allows quick installation on multiple host machines, reducing setup time and increasing operational efficiency across multiple job locations.
- Removable Storage Legs Design Features removable steel legs for safe storage and transport, enhancing portability while protecting equipment when not in active use.
- Multi-Industry Application Use Ideal for construction, landscaping, concrete removal, highway works, manufacturing, and utility projects, making it a versatile solution for contractors across industries.
