Easy, safer pallet unloading improves ergonomics for Aritco

2023-07-14

Aritco is an award-winning manufacturer of specialist lifts for public and home settings worldwide. When Production Technician Almir Cehic wanted to improve ergonomics and safety in the Stockholm production facility, he found the solution in the PalletPal spring level loader.

Almir has worked in assembly as well as production management, so his operational and strategic insights played an important role when he was presented with the challenge. [I know about the problems with unloading pallets from painful experience," he says. [You get the first few off easily, because they are at the right height. Then it gets more and more awkward, and dangerous, the more you unload."

The safer, more ergonomic solution: PalletPal

While researching possible solutions, Almir discovered PalletPal, the spring-actuated level loader that makes loading and unloading pallets faster, safer, and easier. [As soon as I saw PalletPal, I realized it was what I was looking for," says Almir. [It is spring-actuated, and maintains loads up to 2040 kg at a constant height as we unload individual items. That is what we need for our heavier engines, for example."

A further ergonomic benefit comes from the PalletPal turntable. [With easy nearside unloading always available, our colleagues in production enjoy a dramatically lower risk of strain or injury at work. This all contributes to high efficiency and productivity," says Almir. [And just as importantly, it helps maintain our colleagues` health and wellbeing."
