Overcoming Safety Risks with Vacuum Lifting
Traditional material handling methods in the oil and gas industry – such as using hooks, slings, and chains – pose significant safety risks. These risks include the danger of loads shifting or coming loose, which can lead to accidents, and the necessity for workers to climb on trailers, increasing the risk of falls. Ground personnel managing tag lines are also susceptible to injuries, and adjacent materials can be displaced and damaged.
