FullSharp · since 1991

FullSharp installed an articulating jib crane with its own air balancer and a pneumatic suction tool for pickup points hidden behind machines or against walls. The arm folds around obstacles to reach the item directly, the balancer holds it at any height, and the operator only grips, guides and releases, with no clamp marks on the surface.

Many pickup points sit hidden behind machines or against walls, out of reach for a straight arm, so workers have to carry items out by hand before the equipment can take over. That hand-carried stretch is exactly where slips and surface damage happen. Repeating this all shift also strains the shoulders.

FullSharp installed an articulating jib crane fitted with a FullSharp air balancer and a pneumatic suction tool at the arm tip. The arm folds and extends to reach the exact pickup point even when obstructed. The air balancer keeps the load balanced, so the operator only needs to suction, guide, and release.

Equipment Installed

  • Articulating jib crane: two arm sections joined by a rotating joint, folding and extending to reach positions blocked by obstacles.
  • FullSharp air balancer: compressed air carries the load and holds it suspended, raised and lowered with very light hand force.
  • Pneumatic suction tool: an air-powered suction cup grips the product's flat surface without leaving clamp marks.
  • Control handle: suction, release, raise, and lower buttons are all on the handle, letting one person complete the whole cycle.

Benefits for Your Facility

Reaches hidden spots

The articulating joint lets the arm fold around obstacles to reach items against walls or behind machines.

Leaves no marks

Suction on the flat surface replaces clamping, so the finished surface stays untouched.

Load always balanced

The air balancer holds the item steady at any height, freeing the worker's hands to focus on positioning.

Frequently asked questions

How do you lift items that sit behind machines?

An articulating jib has two arm sections joined by a rotating joint, so it folds and extends around obstacles. Workers no longer carry the item out by hand first.

Will a suction tool mark finished surfaces?

No. An air-powered suction cup grips the flat surface instead of clamping, so the finish stays untouched. FullSharp checks the surface before choosing the cup.

How is the lift controlled?

Suction, release, raise and lower buttons are all on the handle, so one person completes the cycle while the balancer holds the load.

Installation Consultation for Your Facility

FullSharp measures the required reach, obstacle positions, and the product's weight and gripping surface to select the length of each arm section and the suction cup type. We test-run the setup on the actual product before finalizing the solution. Contact FullSharp to schedule a site survey.
