Continuous Strain When Palletizing Boxes
Lifting 20 kilograms, 400 times per shift. In logistics and trade, boxes and crates are a constant presence. The workflow relentlessly moves goods from the packing table to the pallet, or from the conveyor belt to the trolley. This continuous manual handling takes a toll not only on the material but, most importantly, on the operators' backs.
When stacks wobble or packaging tears due to improper gripping, process reliability suffers. Long-term physical strain inevitably leads to higher sick leave rates and declining productivity in order picking.
Ergonomic Relief with ezzFLOW and ezzFAST
This is exactly where our handling solutions for standard industrial environments come into play. With the ezzFLOW balancer and the ezzFAST vacuum tube lifter, boxes are safely picked up from packing stations, conveyor belts, or staging areas.
These systems allow loads to be placed precisely on pallets or trolleys—without pulling, compressing, or tilting. Whether it is a standard cardboard box, a small load carrier (KLT), or a bulky shipping item, operators execute the movement intuitively and without physical exertion.
Measurable Benefits in Daily Operations
Using modern lifting technology transforms exhausting manual labor into an efficient, safe process:
- Ergonomics: Back-friendly working conditions, even at high cycle rates and with heavy shipping items.
- Precision: Fast gripping and controlled, exact positioning without time-consuming readjustments.
- Quality Assurance: Significantly less waste and packaging damage, as boxes are lifted and set down gently.
- Efficiency: Higher order picking performance with consistent quality and a reduction in downtime-related costs.
