Choosing the right assisted lifting manipulator is like picking the right teammate for your workshop: it needs to handle the heavy lifting without getting in the way or slowing everyone down.
Here is a guide to navigating the technical specs and ergonomic needs to find your perfect match.

In the high-stakes world of heat exchanger manufacturing, the “core” is literally the heart of the product. Because radiator cores are composed of incredibly thin, fragile aluminum or copper fins and tubes, they are susceptible to damage at every stage of assembly.
A radiator core han...
Have you ever had trouble moving a big roll of fabric at work? A fabric roll lifter helps you handle large and heavy rolls like textiles, paper, or plastics. This tool lifts, moves, and puts rolls in place safely. It helps you avoid hurting your back and lowers the chance of accidents. Many worke...
Cantilever pneumatic manipulators are industrial lifting devices that use a rigid, single-sided support arm (the cantilever) and compressed air to neutralize the weight of a load. By creating a “zero-gravity” state, they allow operators to move heavy or awkward objects with fingertip ...
Pneumatic lift manipulator arms act as a force multiplier in the modern factory. By neutralizing the weight of heavy objects, they don’t just make a task “easier”—they fundamentally redesign the relationship between the worker and the workload.

Assisted lifting manipulators (also known as “powered manipulators” or “balanced cranes”) are core equipment for achieving “human-machine collaboration” in modern manufacturing. They do not completely replace manual labor, but rather use pneumatic or electric b...
Depalletizing is the critical first step in the “Inbound-to-Production” workflow. It is the process of unloading containers, boxes, or bags from a pallet and feeding them into a production line or distribution system.
When done correctly, it sets the rhythm for the entire factory; whe...
Choosing a Magnetic Manipulator Arm is a strategic decision based on the material properties of your workpieces and the specific requirements of your production environment. While vacuum and mechanical grippers are popular, they have physical limitations that magnets easily overcome.
Here is a g...
A vacuum bag lifter is a specialized type of vacuum handling equipment designed specifically for lifting, moving, and positioning flexible, porous, or semi-porous materials like sacks, bags, and permeable containers (e.g., woven plastic sacks, paper bags of cement, feed, or flour).
It is a variat...
A pneumatic manipulator arm is a type of industrial lifting assist device that utilizes compressed air (pneumatics) as its power source to counterbalance the weight of a load. This allows a human operator to lift, move, and precisely position heavy or awkwardly shaped objects with minimal physica...
Steel plate handling systems are crucial in industries like shipbuilding, heavy machinery manufacturing, fabrication, and metal service centers. These systems are designed to move, lift, rotate, and position large, heavy, and often sharp steel plates safely and efficiently.
The systems primarily ...
In CNC machine tool workshops, cantilever gantry systems are primarily used for automated workpiece loading, unloading, handling, and positioning.
Supported by a cantilever structure on columns, they provide a wider working area for the robotic arm, allowing for flexible movement over a larger ra...
