Applicances and furniture

In production processes that entail lifting appliances and furniture during assembly or packing, this can be a daunting task as the products are both bulky and heavy.

Appropriate lifting aids are a prerequisite for safe and efficient material handling.

Automotive parts

Manual lifting equipment for the automotive industry is characterized by the industry’s high demands on safety, ergonomics, accessibility and quality. Such equipment is often adapted to the production of different model variants on the same production line, which means less conversion time and lower investment costs.

The types of items handled in automotive manufacturing and assembly processes include chassis components, such as doors, sunroofs, seats, windscreens and bonnets, and drive components, such as engines, gearboxes, flywheels and drive shafts.

Boxes and cartons

The lifting of boxes and cartons is a common activity in industry, an activity that can tire personnel and cause aches and pains if carried out for long periods, with a large degree of repetitiveness, in unfavourable positions or with heavy loads.

Choosing the right lifting aid for cardboard boxes is important to ensure safe, flexible and efficient material handling with optimum operator ergonomics. We can help you to find the right solution for your operations. Movomech also has extensive experience of creating combined tools for the handling of both items and their packaging.

Buckets and barrels

Ergonomic lifting equipment for barrel handling facilitates stacking, as well as emptying contents from, barrels and buckets – an often heavy and stressful task.

With the right lifting and gripping tools, barrels are weightlessly and ergonomically handled for safe and efficient production.

Doors

Ergonomic lifting equipment for the lifting of doors within the wood products industry and furniture manufacturing is often comprised of moment-absorbing lifting manipulators that allow the operator to turn and rotate doors and boards without risking injury or accidentally dropping the object.

Movomech’s lifting manipulators increase productivity in tasks such as reloading, lifting objects into and out of processing machines and assembling components and accessories.

Electrical components

Movomech’s lifting equipment is often used for handling items such as motors, batteries and other electrical components.

The right choice of lifting manipulator, together with a tailor-made gripper, allows for convenient and efficient lifting and non-stop production.

Glass and windows

Movomech’s lifting equipment for glass and window handling enables personnel to safely lift, tilt and rotate panes of glass or entire windows while maintaining good ergonomic postures during assembly work. The object is lifted safely and ergonomically using a specially designed gripper and is not damaged in any way.

Handling solutions for glass and windows can consist of an electric chain hoist with a vacuum tool, a moment-absorbing lifting manipulator with a rotatable gripping tool, or a vacuum lifter with suction cups.

Mechanical parts

In the manufacturing industry, heavy and bulky mechanical components are often lifted during production and assembly work. Specially designed gripping tools and the right choice of lifting manipulator make handling easy, convenient and ergonomic!

Movomech offers a wide range of ergonomic lifting devices for lifting mechanical components that improve the work environment in the manufacturing industry.

Miscellaneous

Lifting aids for other types of objects, support equipment and accessories are included in this category.

Movomech has extensive experience of developing customized lifting units and designing tailor-made support equipment, including stands, roller tables and fixtures. Standard modules and lifting devices from other manufacturers are also offered as a complement to our own lifting equipment.

Pallets

A Euro pallet weighs about 22 kg and a pallet collar some 8 kg. Single pallet collars can be mounted manually, but for more frequent handling, or when forced to mount them from uncomfortable working positions, lifting aids are a must.

Lifting equipment tailor-made for this purpose can supplement pallet handling at specific workstations where a forklift – due to the nature of the work – is not the most flexible solution, such as when repairing pallets or simply stacking them.

Reels and rolls

Lifting reels, rolls and tubes can be heavy and tiring work.

Movomech produces a wide range of concept solutions for ergonomic roll handling, adapted to a wide variety of industries and handling situations. The various combinations offer many ways to tailor a complete solution suitable for essentially any lifting need.

Sacks and bags

Sack lifting is frequently an ergonomic challenge. Not only are sacks often heavy and comprised of hard-to-grasp material, their shape and firmness can vary and the centre of gravity can shift during handling, which increases the physical strain on personnel.

A lifting aid in the form of a vacuum lifter with a suction cup for sacks ensures easy sack handling that is both ergonomic and efficient.

Sheets and panels

The handling of flat panels, such as glass, metal sheeting, doors, and plastic and wooden boarding, is one of the most common lifting tasks performed in workplaces around the world on a daily basis.

Sheet materials are often both too heavy and too unwieldy to handle manually and can cause strain injuries which, in the long run, can result in sick leave. To prevent such problems, Movomech offers a wide range of lifting aids for panel handling that improve operator ergonomics.

Wheels and tires

Wheels are heavy, especially on larger car models, and working with frequent wheel changes can take its toll on backs and shoulders.

Movomech’s lifting equipment for wheel handling and lifting facilitates wheel replacement and improves the working posture of the fitter.
