In this video, we showcase a custom PM-33-A ergonomic machine tending solution designed to handle parts weighing up to 70 pounds in a confined workspace.

This custom end effector features a pneumatic gripper mounted to a vertical lift shaft, allowing the operator to position the arm over the workspace, lower directly into tight areas, grip the part, and lift it out with controlled movement.

The actual application involves repetitive part handling inside a machine at chest height, where reach, positioning, and repetition become just as important as lifting weight. This demonstration highlights the motion and functionality of the system and how custom ergonomic solutions can improve operator handling and workflow consistency.

Key Features:

PM-33-A ergonomic lift assist
Pneumatic gripping system
Vertical lift shaft for tight-space access
Controlled part handling
Custom machine tending solution
Ergonomic repetitive lifting support

This is one example of a custom machine tending solutionβ€”but we build systems to solve a wide range of part handling and ergonomic challenges across manufacturing environments.
