Ergonomic Partners designed and installed this custom vacuum tube lifter solution for palletizing 55-pound 5-gallon buckets. The customer previously used five rotating operators per line, manually lifting, shrink wrapping, labeling, and palletizing. They experienced severe personnel turnover, work call-offs, operator injuries, and each line only achieved 40% to 60% capacity. Ergonomic Partners teams installed two Gorbel Workstation Jib Cranes with Anver Triple Pail Vacuum Handling Systems at the end of each conveyor line. An automatic photo eye controlled, pail positioning system at the end of each conveyor line separates, spins, orients the handles, aligns the product labels for clear reading from all four sides of the pallet, and positions the pails for consistent and easy palletizing by the vacuum lifting systems. Each line now only requires two operators for lifting, shrink wrapping, labeling, and palletizes the full system capacity of 1,430 pails per single shift. Operator injuries and call-off days are no longer an issue, and the palletizing production is completed in three days allowing the operators to be used elsewhere in the plant.
