  • Ergonomic Lifts

    Less heavy lifting and faster and safer processing of materials and products increases productivity and reduces potential for employee back injuries. Ergonomic lifts come in countless shapes, sizes and capabilities to speed up your production process and keep your employees healthy. Below is just a sampling of the types of ergonomic lifts available; your W.E. Carlson salesperson can help you identify the type of lift perfect for your environment.

    Scissor Lift
    Scissor lift tables are the most versatile and popular in the lift type products, designed to reduce worker fatigue and risk of serious injury. Double scissor lifts provide a high-travel, adjustable work platform beyond a normal scissors lift table.
    Portable Lift
    Portable lifts range from light-duty, foot-pump powered lifts that are ideal for small parts, maintenance shop and transporting items, to self-propelled skid lifts for heavier loads.

    Tilter
    Used independently or mounted to a scissor lift, tilters bring small parts or hard to reach items, typically in bins and baskets, within easy reach, reducing reaching or bending over, leading causes of back injury. Available in hydraulic, air bag, and portable models.
    Turntable
    Turntables give workers the ability to turn the worktable instead of walking around it increasing productivity and potential for injury by reducing reaching, stretching or twisting in pallet loading or unloading. Available in manual or powered models.

    Portable Drum Dumper
    Stationary dumpers and portable drum dumpers have fully enclosed sides to add stability, avoid spillage and accurately funnel products. All dumpers can be customized based on your needs.
    Vacuum Lift
    Vacuum Lifts use the power of air combined with a hoist and crane system to move light-to-heavy loads safely and efficiently.


    Work Station Jib & Hoist
    Work Station Jibs are ideal for supporting tool or air balancers, hoists or vacuum lifts at an individual work station.

    Articulating Jib
    Articulating Jibs are versatile enough to move loads around corners, reach into machines or doorways, and swing under obstructions; I-Beam Cranes are ideal for heavier loads from one to five tons.
    Dock Lift
    Dock Lifts, offered in both stationary and portable models, move materials from grade to dock height beyond the normal range of a dock leveler for applications with a variety of truck bed heights. They can be pit or surface mounted.
