Pneumatic handling manipulator sets new standards in heavy box logistics compared to hall and jib cranes

A pneumatic handling manipulator has several specific advantages in the logistics industry compared to an indoor crane & jib crane when handling heavy wooden boxes 🚚📦🚢✈️:



1. Power support and ergonomics 🦾


  • Our manipulator uses compressed air to assist with #lifting and #moving heavy #loads. This significantly reduces the amount of effort required by staff and protects the health of employees. Especially when repeatedly lifting heavy boxes, as is often the case in #logistics, the use of manipulators reduces the strain on the back and joints.


2. Precise and safe positioning 🕹️


  • The #manipulator allows precise lifting, lowering and positioning of heavy #wooden boxes, as the speed and position can be controlled with little effort by the operator. The uniform pneumatic support and rigid load guidance help to move even bulky or difficult to handle boxes safely, which reduces the risk of accidents.


3. Reduction of physical fatigue ⤵️


  • Thanks to compressed air support, employees have to exert less physical effort, which reduces fatigue and thus increases productivity in everyday work. This has the advantage that performance can be maintained over longer periods of time and fewer breaks are necessary due to overload.


5. Increase productivity 📈


  • Since the pneumatic manipulator makes it easier to lift and place heavy loads, employees can work faster and more efficiently. This speeds up the entire logistics process, as wooden boxes can be moved without much effort and in less time.


6. Mobility and flexibility 🤸


  • In contrast to an #indoor crane & #jib crane, which is usually mounted on a #rail or a fixed point and can therefore only serve a certain area, our pneumatic manipulator is freely movable & can be used flexibly within a larger #radius. It can therefore be used more flexibly in different areas of a warehouse or factory hall without being limited to rails


7. Space-saving solution 📐


  • Pneumatic manipulators take up significantly less space and can also be used in lower rooms or at workstations with limited space, where an indoor crane would often be impractical or even impossible to install due to space restrictions.


8. Safety and reducing the risk of accidents 🦺


  • Since the operator of a manipulator is in direct contact with the load and has sensitive control, sudden movements can be better controlled and the risk of pendulum movements or uncontrolled swinging of the load is minimized. With an indoor crane, on the other hand, swinging movements can occur that could compromise safety.



For lifting and moving heavy wooden boxes, the pneumatic #handling manipulator offers better ergonomics, greater flexibility, smaller space requirements and more sensitive control of the load. An indoor crane would be useful if very heavy or particularly large loads have to be moved that exceed the capacity of a manipulator, or if large areas with heavy loads have to be served regularly.
