DAMBACH Lagersysteme: Load-Handling Devices

DAMBACH develops and manufactures load handling devices for storage and retrieval machines (SIR-machines) and material handling systems—Made in Germany. The load handling device serves as the link between the storage and retrieval machine and the load carrier. We offer the optimal solution for pallets, mesh boxes, cartons, trays, or special load carriers such as rolls and panels. High reliability, short transfer times, and suitability for use in deep-freeze environments down to –30 °C.

DAMBACH telescopic forks for single-depth storage of pallets, mesh boxes, and special load carriers are synonymous with high operational reliability and long-lasting quality. Flexible mounting plates allow for use in a wide variety of storage and conveyor systems. High positioning accuracy and secure load transfer make these telescopic forks particularly suitable for warehouses with high pallet throughput.

Technical Data

Payload up to 1,500 kg
Temperature range from –30 °C to +40 °C
Speed up to 120 m/min
Acceleration up to 5 m/s²

DAMBACH telescopic forks for double-depth storage of pallets, mesh boxes, and special load carriers offer high flexibility and precise load transfer. Single- or dual-drive versions enable control sequences tailored to specific requirements and minimal approach dimensions. Lightweight constructions made of high-strength aluminum reduce energy consumption and mast vibrations.
Also suitable for deep-freeze warehouses down to –30 °C.

Temperature range from –30 °C to +40 °C
Speed up to 120 m/min
Acceleration up to 6 m/s²

The DAMBACH clamping gripper enables the fast and secure handling of cartons and containers in single-depth storage. Adjustable tines adapt flexibly to different load carriers and enable reliable handling even of heavy small load carriers. The robust design is suitable for demanding production and frozen food applications.

Technical Specifications

Payload up to 50 kg
Temperature range from –30 °C to +40 °C
Speed up to 120 m/min
Acceleration up to 6 m/s²

The DAMBACH Combination Telescopic Table enables highly dynamic storage and retrieval of various small-parts containers in single- or multi-depth storage systems. Long extension strokes, precise positioning, and an adaptable upper table ensure maximum flexibility with low energy consumption. The robust design is also suitable for demanding deep-freeze applications.

Technical Specifications

Payload up to 100 kg
Temperature range from –30 °C to +40 °C
Speed up to 90 m/min
Acceleration up to 4 m/s²

All load handling devices are developed and manufactured in-house at DAMBACH. Standardized interfaces and a modular design ensure precision and durability in continuous operation.

Short turnaround times for maximum throughput.

Precise dimensional accuracy even under heavy loads and over long travel distances.

Steel-aluminum structures reduce energy consumption and transfer times.

Low construction heights for optimal use of space in high-rack and small-parts warehouses.

Modular system with standardized interfaces for easy maintenance.

All load handling devices are designed for use at temperatures as low as –30 °C.

Single-, double-, and triple-depth for pallet storage. Ultra-narrow tines with high bending and torsional stiffness for pallets with large dimensional tolerances.

Telescopic forks can be combined with an eccentric lift, chain conveyor, tilt mechanism, and fork adjustment. Can be configured for virtually any load carrier.

For loading and unloading closed pallets. With an optional tilting mechanism for ground-level transfer.

For variable carton sizes and multi-deep storage up to four deep. Robust, lightweight design for maximum performance.

With or without belt conveyors for small-parts containers such as cardboard boxes and crates. Proven in automated small-parts warehouses.

For storing panels and lumber. Automatic shutdown of unused suction cells ensures maximum system pressure.

Rack-Feeding Machines

DAMBACH storage and retrieval machines (SIR-machines) are available in straight-aisle or curved-aisle models, designed for pallets, small parts, or heavy loads. They feature a modular design and have been manufactured in Germany for over 50 years.

COMPACT SHUTTLE

Multi-depth storage of pallets in channels up to 40 m deep, without cables or conductor rails. Power Caps with a minimum recharging time of 8 seconds enable 24/7 operation, even in deep-freeze environments. Payload up to 1,500 kg; all eight wheels are driven. Universally applicable as an extended arm for storage and retrieval machines (SIR-machines) and conveyor systems or in the MULTIFLEX pallet shuttle system.

About the MULTIFLEX System

Half-pallets and full pallets in mixed operations.
SEMI SHUTTLE

Store Euro pallets and plastic Düsseldorf pallets simultaneously on a single racking system without any modifications. Two SEMI SHUTTLES operate either in sync or independently of one another, transporting half-pallets and full pallets in mixed-load mode. Power Caps with a minimum reloading time of 8 seconds enable 24/7 operation. Payload up to 800 kg per shuttle, wireless all-wheel drive, and optimized sensor technology for black plastic pallets.

Whether it’s a standard solution or a custom project, the DAMBACH team will advise you on selecting the optimal load handling device for your system.
