Ergonomic material handling solutions that improve worker productivity and reduce the risk of injury.
Loading engines into a skid steer frame is a reach-in job — the engine goes over the top and down into the frame, and the worker needs to hold position precisely during installation. Ergonomic Partners built a custom pneumatic rigid arm manipulator for for a skid steer manufacturer handling exactly this. The arm takes the load completely — the operator guides, not lifts.
Engineered for the application:
Pneumatic Buoyancy: The arm supports the full weight of the engine, leaving the operator with effortless control through the reach-in path.
Joint Parking Brake: Locks arm position the moment the operator releases the handle — keeps the engine stable and in position during installation.
Custom Transfer Hook: Designed around the specific geometry of the skid steer frame, giving the operator clean clearance on the approach without fighting the cutout.
