Heavy Loads in the Ripening Room and at the Packaging Line
In the food and beverage industry, particularly in dairies, heavy lifting is part of the daily routine. Cheese wheels need to be regularly turned and moved during the ripening process. At the same time, production requires the reliable loading of packaging machines with heavy film rolls or packaging materials.
These tasks often take place under demanding conditions:
- High hygiene standards in hygienic environments
- GMP-compliant processes (Good Manufacturing Practices)
- Damp and cooled working environments
- Repetitive movements that put significant strain on the employees' backs and shoulders
Manually moving these loads leads to fatigue, an increased risk of injury, and potential downtime in the long run. Therefore, an ergonomic solution must not only reduce physical strain but also meet strict hygiene regulations.
Stainless Steel Lifting Aids for Cheese Production
To overcome these challenges, Best Handling Technology offers customized stainless steel solutions that are easy to clean and meet the sensitive requirements of dairy production.
ezzFAST Vacuum Tube Lifter: Effortless Turning of Cheese Wheels
The ezzFAST vacuum tube lifter takes over the moving and turning of heavy cheese wheels during ripening. The lifting process is fast, controlled, and, above all, ergonomic, eliminating the need for employees to turn heavy wheels by hand. The stainless steel design allows the device to be easily cleaned and integrated into GMP-compliant processes.
ezzLIFT: Mobile Lifting Aid for Machine Loading
The ezzLIFT mobile lifting aid supports the loading of packaging machines. Whether handling heavy cheese blocks, tools, or bulky packaging material – the ezzLIFT positions the loads precisely and without straining the back. Here too, the stainless steel design ensures that the lifting aid adapts to hygiene requirements.
