New Brochure on Products for Nutrunner Positioning and Material Handling That Improve Ergonomics, Quality, and Productivity
June 6, 2006 — Stanley Assembly Technologies offers a new 20-page brochure, "Articulated Arms & Balancers", describing its complete line of arms and balancers for tool positioning or material handling. Key benefits of the product line include improved quality, productivity, and ergonomics. The tools help customers achieve secure tool mounting that prevents torque reaction impulse to the operator, stable tool orientation for faster tool placement, and tool balancing that can reduce operator fatigue.
The brochure describes vertical balancers, torque tubes, and articulating arm systems that balance loads to 277 kg (610 lbs.) and absorb torque reaction to 1,350 Nm (1000 ft. lb.). Bridges and pedestals for floor or rail mounting complement the range of articulating arms. Optional tool holders, end effectors, and interfaces enhance movement and orientation for specific applications.
Custom-engineered solutions can have higher capacities (to 5,000 Nm) and the capability to integrate arms and balancers with tooling, such as multiple-spindle nutrunners. With more than 40 years of experience, Stanley engineers are experts in evaluating customer needs and converting them into solutions that improve the productivity, ergonomics, and quality of your manufacturing operations.
