Manual material handling is still one of the most common methods used on the shop floor, but it often comes with hidden costs that go far beyond the lift itself.

Every time an operator lifts, positions, or moves a component by hand, there is added effort and added time. Over a full shift or production run, those extra steps can make material handling more difficult and slow down the overall process.IPU Manipulator w/ Operator

Heavy or awkward parts can be difficult to lift, position, and move accurately. As production demands increase, these tasks often become more challenging and can slow the overall process.

Many material handling challenges do not show up as a single event. Instead, they appear as small inefficiencies throughout the day.

A lift that requires two operators. A part that is difficult to position. A process that slows down as production demands increase. While each situation may seem minor on its own, they can add up and affect overall productivity.


When manual handling becomes a challenge, engineered lifting solutions can help improve the process.

Bridge cranes, jib cranes, manipulators, vacuum end effectors, and custom tooling can help operators handle materials more safely and efficiently while reducing the effort required for repetitive or difficult lifting tasks. The result is easier material handling, reduced operator effort, and a more efficient process.
