FullSharp installed a pneumatic jib crane on a mobile base with a four-corner hook tool made to fit the rim of the customer's plastic parts baskets. The hooks catch all four corners, so a heavy basket lifts level without squeezing its sides, and one worker swings it from pallet to workbench in a single push.
A plastic basket or tray full of parts is heavy, and two workers carrying it still risk tilting and dropping the load. Rope slings tend to squeeze the basket's sides out of shape, and setting it down rarely comes out level. Repeating this all day tires workers' arms and drags down productivity.
FullSharp installs a pneumatic jib crane on a mobile base fitted with a four-corner basket hook tool. The four hooks grip exactly at the four corners, so the basket is lifted level without squeezing its sides. The rotating arm moves the basket from pallet to workbench in a single push.

The four hooks grip all four corners, evenly distributing force so the plastic basket's sides never bend or crack.
The rotating arm and a secure tool let you lower the basket onto a pallet or workbench neatly in one motion.
Work that once required two people carrying now takes just one worker operating the equipment.
A four-corner hook tool grips the basket at each corner, spreading the load evenly so it stays level and the contents do not spill. FullSharp fabricates the hooks to match the basket rim.
Rope tends to squeeze the sides inward and the crate can bend or crack. Hooking at the four corners avoids pressure on the sides altogether.
No. The steel base has wheels, so the unit can be pushed to another line. The pneumatic lifting unit uses the plant's compressed air and holds the load steady when stopped midway.
FullSharp measures your basket dimensions, rim thickness, and full-load weight to fabricate a matching four-corner hook tool. Our engineers also review the travel distance and floor plan to select the right jib reach. Contact FullSharp for a survey and to finalize the solution.
