Two Industrial Manipulators
A well known publishing Company needed to improve productivity and find a quicker and safer way to lift cases full of books from the pallet and move them unto the conveyor. Each case weighs about 60 kg. And the operation is repeated several times a day; the manual handling was too slow and unsafe; a traditional electric hoist wouldn't have made it faster enough. Moreover the handling operation needed to be very smooth and user friendly, as well as ergonomic and safe for the operator. An hoist compels the operator to keep the up - down button constantly pressed , with possible hazard to his health (Carpal Tunnel Syndrome), and it may discourage him to keep using the hoist and induce him and carry out the handling operation manually again.
