Carton boxes stacked against the wall and tight against pallet corners are out of reach of a straight arm, so workers still have to lean in and carry them by hand. With hundreds of repetitions per shift, backs ache and stacking speed drops off toward the end.
FullSharp installed an articulating jib crane on a mobile base, with two arm sections that fold to reach into blind corners. The FullSharp vacuum tube lifter grips the box surface, and the operator simply pulls the handle to raise and lower the box.

The folding articulating arm lets workers stack boxes against walls and pallet edges without leaning in.
Vacuum suction carries the box weight, so stacking speed doesn't drop off toward the end of a shift like it does with manual carrying.
The mobile base lets the unit move to wherever it's needed without reinstallation.
FullSharp weighs your heaviest box and measures its surface to select the suction head size, and measures the warehouse corners to determine the length of the two articulating arm sections. Our engineers also check the floor and aisles to size the base counterweight. Send us your box dimensions and photos of the stacking area, and we will propose a configuration.
