Boxes

Handling and lifting of boxes at high speeds

Cardboard handling is a very common activity in the logistics sectors, but also in all sectors of activity involving the transport and handling of products. Lifting boxes is as time-consuming as it is physically demanding. It is necessary to equip operators to maximize the productivity of this task while reducing the human risks associated with bad gestures and postures. In order to assist operators in handling boxes of all weights, shapes and volumes, Manut-LM has developed cobotic manipulators in the form of Manual Handling Assistance Solutions. Thanks to a control handle associated with a lifting tube, the operator is able to lift up to 300 kg ergonomically while completely removing the weight of his load.

All types of boxes can be lifted, but using different gripping tools depending on the type of box.
The corrugation of the cardboard will be decisive in the choice of the solution. We prefer suction cups for the thicker ones, and mechanical gripping tools (pliers, trays …) for the thinnest.

In addition, depending on the type of manipulation to be performed by the operator, the recommended solution will be different.
If the handling is done on the ground or at height, a control handle with an articulated elongated arm will be recommended.
For tipping the box in order to place it in the direction of the production line, a load tipping option will then be essential.

Handling of standard boxes at high speeds

Do you handle boxes in large quantities?
Your operators therefore need tools to improve their productivity in order to keep up with the speeds you need. However, increasing productivity on repetitive load lifting operations can very quickly lead to MSDs (musculoskeletal disorders), back pain or other injuries causing work stoppage. Manut-LM has developed lifting tube handling solutions to maintain high speeds while reducing human risks. Check out our achievements to find out how we can help your business grow!

Handling of bulky boxes

The handling of bulky boxes can be restrictive on several levels: no solid grip to carry, poor posture when gripping the load, need for several operators to lift or excessive weight. These cases have the consequence of reducing the productivity of operators, and are direct causes of pain and work stoppages.
Manut-LM has designed solutions allowing the lifting of heavy and bulky boxes without any effort in order to adapt to the problems of all sectors of activity. The technology of our lifting tube handling solutions allows operators to be autonomous in lifting these loads by offering them great flexibility of movement. The risks of MSDs (musculoskeletal disorders) are therefore eliminated. Contact us to find out about our solutions for your handling needs for bulky boxes.

Handling of several boxes

For activities that require a high productivity output on standardized packages, Manut-LM offers lifting tube handling solutions allowing several boxes to be lifted at the same time. Ideal for pallet loading and unloading operations, these heavy load manipulators allow a single operator to minimize the time spent on such tasks and concentrate on more important actions.
Beyond productivity gains, Manut-LM solutions always strive to offer ergonomic products that guarantee operator comfort and integrity. Repetitive handling of cartons can cause MSDs (musculoskeletal disorders). With this lifting tube manipulator, the health hazard is eliminated. Contact our teams to find out more.

Box handling with tipping

On production lines or in workshops, boxes containing raw material sometimes need to be moved and then tipped in order to empty the contents. If the contents are heavy, this handling can have immediate consequences for the health of the operators. Indeed, the tipping of a box can force to adopt non-ergonomic postures and cause back pain, especially if the contents are heavy.
With the Master Plus control handle and its Load Tilting Option, Manut-LM offers a complete lifting tube handling solution for gripping and tilting all types of bulky loads. Consult our videos and ask our teams for any specific problem concerning you!

Handling of boxes at height

During palletizing or depalletizing operations, operators may have to handle boxes of different weights and sizes at height or close to the ground. When handling by hand, the gestures and postures adopted are very often non-ergonomic and can be the cause of pain or accidents. To remedy these risks and offer ergonomic solutions improving operator productivity and autonomy, Manut-LM has developed lifting tube handling solutions with elongated and articulated control handles. The operator can therefore grab loads at height, place them on the ground and vice versa without adopting bad posture.

No need for a stepladder or to call others! A single operator can manage the palletizing of boxes effortlessly, smoothly and quickly.
