Skilled worker shortages and ergonomics are directly linked. Companies that provide ergonomic support for heavy work retain qualified staff and gain an advantage in recruitment.

Musculoskeletal disorders are the most common cause of work disability in German manufacturing. What they really cost and how technical lifting aids work.

In industrial production processes, handling heavy beams and bulky components is a major challenge. Conventional methods not only require considerable effort, but can also impair efficiency and increase the risk of injury to employees! 🚑 Ergonomic and precise movement of components is therefore crucial for a safe and productive working environment 🚀 Our state-of-the-art manipulators offer a tailor-made solution to this problem. They enable heavy loads to be moved effortless

Exhaust gas purification systems installed in high-performance vehicles such as trucks, luxury boats, and other power-intensive vehicles are heavy and cumbersome 😓 With our innovative manipulators, handling is easier and more efficient than ever before. Our manipulator allows these components to be moved effortlessly at the point of use – precisely, safely, and with minimal effort. Positive effects on your production 🚀 ✅ Increased efficiency: Thanks to the precise control

Paint traverses are frames used in automotive manufacturing to safely transport and position vehicle bodies during the painting process. With the help of our innovative manipulators, dismantling these heavy and bulky frames becomes child's play! 💪 When workers manually dismantle the paint traverses, several problems arise compared to a manipulator with a gripping device: 😓 Worker workload: Manual disassembly requires physical effort and causes strain, as the trusses are v

Lifting loads in everyday work can cause significant physical strain and health risks for employees. This strain primarily affects the back, joints and muscles, and can lead to chronic illnesses or injuries in the long term. Ergonomic relief for employees when lifting and moving heavy loads is therefore not only a question of health promotion, but also a decisive factor for efficiency and productivity in companies. · Avoiding health damage 💪 · Compliance with occupational he

Manipulators as we design and manufacture them are mechanical #devices that are used to grip, move, position, measure or process objects and components. 🏭 In industrial applications, our pneumatic, electro-pneumatic and electrical #manipulators are standalone or part of automated #manufacturing systems. There, together with the #human, you will take on a variety of tasks such as assembling components and #handling workpieces, which brings with it a variety of advantages: 🏆

We as Zeilhofer HHT have been developing #manipulators, #lifting axes, #lifting aids and corresponding #devices for more than 20 years. Our #lifting aids are used in a wide variety of industries, which always brings with it new requirements. 🏭 Recently, we have increased our efforts to meet the changing needs of the industry. A key component of this effort is the integration of self-programmed displays and pneumatic-electronic controls into our manipulator systems. 🎯 ➡️Self

Inserting different steel sheets into a machining center brings with it many challenges and problems, which can be avoided by using our lifting aids: Weight and dimensions of the sheets : the sheets are usually very heavy, which makes inserting them into the respective machine very difficult. Our #manipulators with appropriate load capacity and special suction devices make this work step easier and thus relieve the burden on employees. 📏 💪 Risk of injury from the sheets :

In addition to #manipulators, lifting axles and product-specific #devices, we also design and produce a wide variety of floor weighers. The floor trolley shown here was developed specifically to meet the customer's requirements. More precisely, this floor truck combines the functions of an electric low-platform truck and our patented #Lifting Axle ZH90. In the first step, the rolls are placed from a container in the floor trolley using the gripper, which is located on the lif
