Air Balancer, Mobile Base, Plastic Tray Hook Tool

Food plants move trays and plastic crates continuously between process stages. Full trays can be quite heavy, carrying them by hand repeatedly tires the shoulders, and the production area often changes layout by shift and by order.

FullSharp installed an air balancer on a mobile base with a height-adjustable column to change the working reach at each table. The hook tool is made to match the tray's rim exactly, and compressed air keeps the load suspended so workers can lift and place with just one hand.

Installed Equipment

Mobile base with wheels: pushed to the process stage that needs it, locked in place to stand still while working.
Height-adjustable column: changes the working reach to match the table height or stacked tray height.
Air balancer: keeps the tray suspended using compressed air, with lifting and lowering following the operator's hand force.
Plastic tray/crate hook tool: hooks precisely onto the tray rim, picking up and releasing quickly without cracking the plastic edge.
Easy-to-clean materials: smooth surfaces that withstand daily washing and wiping per food-processing area regulations.

Light-touch picking

Compressed air carries the tray's weight, so workers only guide direction with one hand.

Easy to keep clean

A structure with few crevices makes cleaning fast between food production shifts.
