Industrial Manipulator Arms
Custom-engineered manipulator arms provide precise product positioning for manufacturing applications. These systems enable ergonomic handling of products ranging from delicate components to heavy machinery. Our pneumatic, hydraulic, and electric models offer zero-gravity flotation and variable reach capabilities to optimize production workflows.
Torque Reaction Arms
UltiTorque systems absorb tool reaction forces during assembly operations. These arms protect operators from injury while maintaining tool precision. Available in standard and custom configurations, they accommodate weights up to 30 lbs with 40-inch reach and 360-degree rotation for improved manufacturing efficiency.
Mobile Manipulators
Mobulator AC mobile manipulators combine forklift mobility with precision lifting capabilities. These electric-powered units allow operators to transport, rotate, and position heavy loads from the driver's seat. Quick-attach end-effectors enable multitasking while maintaining safety and operational efficiency in dynamic production environments.
Automated Material Handling
Custom automated systems optimize manufacturing processes through integrated lift-assist technologies. Our engineering team designs solutions that maintain product integrity while increasing throughput. Systems incorporate advanced sensors and controls to ensure consistent performance in demanding industrial applications.
End-Effectors
Custom end-effectors provide specialized gripping, clamping, and handling capabilities for unique applications. Our engineering team designs vacuum, mechanical, and hybrid solutions to handle products of various shapes and weights. These attachments integrate seamlessly with existing manipulator systems to maximize operational flexibility.
