Custom Industrial Positech Manipulator

This is a custom Positech manipulator provided to pick up and rotate large studs. These parts are gripped away from the center of gravity and rotates the part. This customer came to Ergonomic Partners with a very difficult application due to the weight of the part and low headroom application. The Positech World manipulator is designed for loads of up to 440# with extended reach.

Ergonomic Partners worked with Positech to come up with a turnkey solution. We can provide a custom lifting device for your hardest applications.

Custom Lifting Device For Box Handling


Ergonomic Partners provided this custom box lifting device for a large manufacturer in the Midwest. It is integrated with a Gorbel G-Force zero gravity lifting device. The boxes weigh in excess of 100# and were very awkward to handle. The customer had been using a vacuum tube lifter but they were not as smooth, fast or precise as the compressed air lift assist.

The operators move the boxes from a conveyor and palletize them at a rate of 5 per minute. They operators are very happy as they are not wrestling with the old lift assist. The customer is experiencing better productivity as well as less product damage.

If you have a custom lifting application let us know and we can schedule an on-site demonstation of the Gorbel G-Force zero gravity lifter. We also consider vacuum lift tubes, balancers, or hoists depending on your exact application.
