Custom Ergonomic Lifting Devices and Engineered Lifting Tools for Material Handling Applications

Vacuum Lifting can require simple or complex solutions. At Ergonomic Partners, we specialize in matching the correct vacuum lifter with the right application. Vacuum hoist systems are perfect for bag lifting, box handling, and sheet handling. These ergonomic lifting devices can handle flat and slightly rounded parts giving you a lot of flexibility when it comes to handling a part.

Ergonomic Partners specializes in and manufactures custom lifting devices and other ergonomic lifting solutions that include: electromagnets, permanent magnets, mechanical tools, compressed air, vacuum lift assists, grippers, and battery-powered lifters that can simulate the human legs, back, arm, hand, or wrist.

Industrial manipulator arms are an ideal way to handle heavy and awkward payloads like drums, weldments, castings, and machined parts. Manipulator arms allow the operator to perform tasks that typical hoist or overhead lifting systems cannot. Industrial manipulators allow the operator to perform functions such as reach-in, reach-under or into areas with overhead obstructions.

Portable Ergonomic Lifts are a cost effective way to cover a large area where a lift assist and crane might be ideal. These portable roll lifters are ideal for drum handling, roll handling, box handling and can be modified to handle custom lifting applications.

The Easy Arm is the perfect solution for small work cells with a need for speed and precision. These Intelligent Assisted Lifts (IAD's) give the operator the control necessary to finesse expensive or fragile parts.

Combined with an industrial manipulator arm, we can provide a wide array of mechanical tools, C-Frame tools, vacuum tools, pneumatic grippers, magnet tooling, expanding mandrels, and almost any custom tool to handle your application.

Zero Gravity Tool Balancers are the perfect ergonomic lifting solution for applications with suspended tools such as welders, pneumatic tools, grinders, sanders, buffers, drills, torque wrenches, rivet squeezers, and hand tools. Zero Gravity Arms are used when the precision and control of a pneumatic balancer or spring balancer is just not enough.

The G-Force is a "smart device" that moves with the operator. The device moves as fast or as slow as the operator chooses to move. These intelligent ergonomic lifting devices are ideal for applications that require high speed at some point in the cycle and slow, precise movements at other points.

Designed to handle all of your ergonomic lifting needs below 2,000 pounds, Zimmerman pneumatic balancers are used globally because of their ergonomics and value. The simple air piston design is extremely durable, even in harsh applications. This maintenance-free design is also fast, producing speeds up to 200 feet per minute. The lube-free design is rated for continuous duty as it runs lube free.

These unique work positioning systems provide workers and operators with the flexibility to move parts or objects in any position. The work positioners are available in bench or floor mount configurations and feature a custom friction lock, 360-degree rotation, and adjustable height and tilt.

Ergonomic Tool Arms by ETA come in several styles. The most common style are the arms for assembly. The standard torque arm comes with the ability to float the tool and reduce torque. ETA also provides tool support systems that can be mounted overhead.
