Air Balancers

The air balancer offers a float capability making the positioning of materials easy. Balancers are ideal for applications that require relatively fast movement and accurate positioning. A hoist, on the other hand, has fixed stop positions with no float. Therefore, accuracy of positioning depends on lifting speed and operator dexterity.

Applications particularly suited to air balancers include palletizing and stacking, pick and place, load and unload. The float capability is especially valuable for tool balancing and assembly. Air balancers increase employee productivity, reduce fatigue and alleviate the risk of repetitive stress injuries.

This intelligent lifting device is computer-controlled to enable a worker to lift loads and manipulate objects like they are an extension of their own arm. Ideal for manufacturing, distribution, medical and assembly industries, the Gorbel's G-Force is designed for applications that demand high-cycle lifting or very precise positioning of loads up to 150 lbs. The unit, which senses the speed of an operator's movement and adjusts accordingly, increases a worker's physical power by supplementing mechanical power to the lifting task.

Makes any load up to 150 lbs. feel like it weighs only 3 lbs.
Additional Information
Follows operator movement and offers stable performance at any speed
Increases productivity and heightens safety in lifting applications
Essential for ergonomically correct lifting
Reduces worker fatigue and risk of long-term cumulative trauma injuries
Requires minimal training and is simple to use
Low maintenance costs
Maximum speed: 275 feet per minute
Maximum lift: 12 feet
