Manipulative tires of sacks: ergonomics in movement
October 9, 2008
Despite the risks that entails, it has been this way until the arrival of the C.E. 269/90 regulations that deal with the manual handling of loads and the safety of workers and obligations of employers.
In summary, with the rules makes it necessary to relieve the fatigue of workers and reduce incidents or negative consequences for health. Dalmec proposes a solution to this problem. The company specialises in the manufacture of manipulative tyres that allow "handling ergonomic, safe and effective" of any object, of different shapes and textures, from 15 up to 900 kg.
In the case of handling of sacks, machine raises the load by means of a vacuum that sucks with an electric vacuum pump, and a lever commands placed in the same vacuum, break the vacuum to release the bag. The work of the operator is reduced to guiding the bag from decision-making to the release site.
By ergonomic handling
Thanks to the pneumatic system, handlers offer the operator the possibility to move products in all directions of space. In addition, a spherical joint allows leaning the vacuum a few degrees to take the bags from various positions and heights. Implement of decision made by Dalmec to bags of polyethylene, paper, plastic, jute or plastic handle is easy to use and allows the operator to move the load in small work spaces, in a way, fast precise and sure whether transfer, rotation, inclination and positioning of the SAC. Forms and executions of the arms, the number and types of joints, the dynamics of the implements of decision-making, are designed to measure for integrating the machine perfectly in the workplace.
The same vacuum can handle bags of various dimensions, but if there is much difference between the largest bag and small, you can use a system of interchangeable suction either a reduction in the main suction cups, which allows the operator to manipulate different sacks in just a few seconds.
