A plastic tray full of components gets quite heavy, and workers carry it back and forth hundreds of times per shift. A tilted tray means spilled parts - lost stock and time spent picking them back up.

FullSharp installs a pneumatic jib crane with a plastic tray hook tool that grips the rim of the tray at both ends. The tray is lifted and held level, swinging the arm moves it to a new position, and it sets down smoothly without shifting the parts inside.

Pneumatic Jib Crane with Plastic Tray Hook Tool

Plastic tray hook tool mounted on a pneumatic jib crane in the tray transfer area.

Equipment Installed

  • Plastic tray hook tool: two jaws hook onto the tray rim, with adjustable spacing to match the tray size in use.
  • Pneumatic jib crane: the arm swings around the column, covering the work area between the conveyor and the rack.
  • Pneumatic hoist: raised and lowered with a lever, slowing down automatically near the set-down point.
  • Load balancer: keeps the tray level throughout the entire movement.

Benefits for Your Facility

No spilled parts

The tray stays level throughout lifting and swinging, so the contents never shift.

Built for repetition

Fast hook and release, suited to hundreds of tray transfers per shift.

Easier on the back

Operators no longer have to bend down to lift a full tray from the floor to the rack.
