With longer daylight hours and temperatures warming up, glass and window installations are ramping up across the construction industry. To help manufacturers meet this seasonal demand, EP provides custom vacuum grippers that ensure safe handling of windows, windshields, doors, and other glass components—streamlining operations and maintaining product quality when production pressure is highest. Check out this video that showcases some of the custom-designed vacuum lifting solutions we've developed over the years!

We've got something a little different for this post! This custom gantry crane features a unique magnetic lifting tool for handling steel off a plasma table. The magnetic lifting device, custom-developed by Ergonomic Partners, features a pneumatic cylinder with a lifting magnet from Industrial Magnetics, Inc.. The crane, developed by TSOC, is a double-leg, double-girder gantry with dual motors and anti-collision sensors. #gantrycrane #overheadcrane #cranes #materialhandling #doublegirdercrane #magnetcrane #magneticlifting #anticollision #steelprocessing #steelindustry #fabrication #manufacturing #americanmanufacturing #shipping #shippingindustry

We're excited to see where these future engineers will take the robotics industry! This week, we hosted another FIRST TECH CHALLENGE team at Ergonomic Partners, Team Tekon. They were excited to tour our facility and learn about real-world applications of robotics and how their FTC skills can translate into engineering careers. We enjoy their enthusiasm and are grateful for the opportunity to support the local FTC community and STEM education. #ErgonomicPartners #FirstTechChallenge #FTC #Robotics #STEM #Engineering #FutureEngineers #Inspiration #CommunityOutreach #RoboticsEducation

Remote operation meets pinpoint precision in this tank handling solution. Ergonomic Partners recently partnered with a company needing a safer way to handle large water storage tanks from a mezzanine level. We developed a custom vacuum tool integrated with their overhead bridge crane, allowing operators to securely lift and position tanks with unparalleled control and safety. Key Features include: • Triangular pattern of three suction cups precisely angled for secure grip on curved tank surfaces • Combined pneumatic power with electric solenoid actuation for single-point remote control of both crane and vacuum functions • Quick disconnect system for efficient tool changes and angle adjustments for different tank sizes • Proprietary gripper safety circuit to prevent accidental mid-air releases See more custom vacuum lifting solutions at https://lnkd.in/e6di54v #materialhandling #vacuumlifter #customtool #ergonomicpartners #liftingsolutions #bridgecrane #engineering #manufacturing #automation #safety #efficiency #tankstorage #watertanks

Oversized containers demand smart handling—or operations suffer. Ergonomic Partners recently partnered with a company needing a safer way to handle large, 450 lb underground water tanks. We engineered a custom pneumatic gripper tool integrated with a Gorbel motorized jib crane. This solution allows operators to securely grip, lift, and release tanks via a single remote, increasing both safety and productivity. Key Features include: Pneumatic power with electric actuation for seamless integration with the crane's radio control system. Linatex-lined jaws for a secure grip. Integrated radio control for efficient, user-friendly operation Anti-drop safety circuit to prevent mid-air drops.
