Ditch Witch, Vacuworx Form Vacuum Lifting Technology Partnership
Ditch Witch has partnered with Vacuworx to bring the benefits of vacuum lifting technology to an expanded network of underground construction contractors, landscapers, municipalities and utilities.
Vacuum lifting systems are designed to use constant vacuum pressure to handle heavy loads, such as steel road plates and concrete slabs. The proven technology eliminates the need for conventional lifting mechanisms that may damage materials. Vacuworx’s systems, which are compatible with the full line of construction-grade Ditch Witch mini skid steers, handle up to 10 times more material than conventional methods in half the man hours, allowing contractors and landscapers to spend less time loading materials and more time focused on the job.
“Our partnership with Vacuworx will enable our line of mini skid steers to do what others can’t, allowing us to continue offering our customers advanced innovation and expanded versatility,” said Randy Rupp, Ditch Witch vice president of product strategy. “The vacuum lifting attachments help meet the growing challenges and needs of contractors and municipalities in the underground construction space.”
