Slovakian Metalworks Leader Chooses CATHAYLIFT For Precision Lifting Solutions

Apr 30, 2025

CATHAYLIFT, an innovator in smart material handling technology, has equipped Slovakia's premier metal fabrication specialist Kovostav Slovakia with its premium Vacuum Metal Sheet Lift, marking another successful deployment in Europe's industrial sector.

Kovostav Slovakia, recognized for its complex architectural metalwork and large-scale construction projects, has integrated CATHAYLIFT's solution to revolutionize its sheet material handling process. Operations Manager Marek Horváth emphasized the transformative impact:

"Moving 800kg steel panels used to require four workers and significant risk. Now, one operator handles everything with precision using Vacuum Metal Sheet Lift. The difference isn't just efficiency – it's a complete reimagining of how we work."

The selected model features cutting-edge advantages that outperformed competitors:
✔ Intelligent Load Management – Automatic pressure adjustment prevents overloads
✔ Military-Grade Durability – Sandblasted finish with corrosion-resistant coating
✔ 360° Smart Rotation – Micro-adjustment capability for perfect material alignment
✔ Fail-Safe Hydraulics – Dual-protection system against pressure loss

"The vacuum monitoring system gives our team complete confidence when handling €20,000 glass panels," Horváth noted. "We've eliminated nearly all material damage since implementation."

Post-implementation metrics reveal:
▸ 68% reduction in material handling time for steel installations
▸ 100% elimination of lift-related workplace injuries
▸ 35% increase in daily project throughput

The system's versatility has proven particularly valuable, with Horváth adding: "We've successfully handled everything from 3cm steel plates to delicate composite panels without reconfiguration."

This installation continues CATHAYLIFT's strategic expansion across European industrial markets. The company has seen 140% year-over-year growth in the region, attributed to its focus on:

  • Customized lifting solutions
  • Advanced safety engineering
  • Smart automation integration

"Kovostav represents exactly the type of forward-thinking partner we design for," commented Liu Wei, CATHAYLIFT's International Director. "Their challenging projects push our technology to its limits – and prove its capabilities."

The delivered system includes:

  • 8-point vacuum array with individual pressure sensors
  • Industrial-grade lithium power system (8hr continuous operation)
  • IP54-rated weather-resistant components
  • Real-time load monitoring display

Pioneers in intelligent lifting solutions since 2022, CATHAYLIFT develops equipment for aerospace, automotive, and high-precision manufacturing applications. Their patented vacuum technology has been adopted by 23 Fortune 500 manufacturers globally.
