Vacuum Lift Assist with Gorbel Workstation Crane System


Gorbel products love to show up in all types of material handling applications. How about a dog food plant. Check out this workstation crane with a vacuum lifting device.

The customers problem was their employees were twisting and pushing the 45# product onto a conveyor many times per day. For any of you who have picked up a 45# weight that is one heavy piece of meat. The customer was seeking a more efficient way to pick up these slabs.

The customer decided on a vacuum tube lift assist device with an ergonomic Gorbel workstation crane. The employees can now move the product thru the process and not run out of steam mid shift. The employees are happy and the employer is ecstatic as they came up with a very cost efficient solution. Productivity is up and back and shoulder injuries are a thing of the past.

Many plants still have workers manually handling material. This is unsafe and is not cost effective. One injury can cost as much as several of these systems.
