- Standard balancer systems are provided with a hook, but for more
specialized loads you may want to explore the world of ergonomic effectors
that allow you to more easily handle almost any load
- These devices use vacuum, clamp, probe, trap or hook connections to handle loads up to 1,000 lbs.
- Most Ingersoll Rand end effectors come equipped with a safety interlock
system that will not allow the operator to accidentally disengage the part
during transfer
Flexible systems tailored to your exact lifting and positioning task
End effectors allow you to create a total
handling and positioning solution by combining a rail system or manipulator arm
with the correct balancing unit and an end effector tailored to your
application. We provide both custom and standard models, suitable for almost any
application.
End effectors offer these advantages:
-
Safety: Most end effectors come equipped with a
Safety Interlock system that will not allow the operator to accidentally
disengage the part during transfer.
-
Injury Protection: properly applied end
effectors can reduce injuries by eliminating heavy lifting and turning of
items.
-
Control: Through a variety of pneumatic packages
each system is matched to a control package that is tailored to the lifting
and positioning task.
-
Multi-Axis Motion: End effectors can be designed
with manual and/or powered tilt and rotation packages, which allow the
operator to orient the part to the proper position.
-
Flexibility: These end effectors can be utilized
with either a Balance Air (or similar) unit or a manipulator arm for
reach applications.
