Multi Position Manipulator

Our Multi-Position Manipulator was designed originally for our own use to aid our production facility. Having proved their success in house they are now marketed to customers both in New Zealand and overseas. The machines are designed to conform to CE Standards and are certified accordingly.   The Positioner enables the job to be placed allowing the most advantageous position to be easily obtained for either assembly or welding. This reduces gantry usage and operator fatigue as well as increasing safety dramatically. Traditionally chain slings were used to turn the job and the need for these has now been removed completely, avoiding pinched fingers and less damage to the job. Time savings of 40% are typically achieved with this unit.   These manipulators are very well received by operators with several businesses owning multiple units.

Angelo Samuels – Production Manager, Metso Minerals, Matamata, New Zealand
“Using the manipulators for welding and internal work on components has resulted in not only significant productivity improvements, but a massive improvement in health and safety in our workshops.”

“We do not have operators bending over or climbing onto components during their work anymore – welding is now done alongside the body. It means all the work can be covered from a comfortable position, and completed to a high standard.”

“I would say the Manipulators have improved our output by 50-60% - once the work component is on the Manipulator we can move it around the operator – staff are not having to drag welding equipment around one end of the job to the other. The work bay is tidier, and the ergonomics and safety much improved.”
