Ergonomic workstations by IMS

IMS specialises in the design and installation of ergonomic operator workstations

Ergonomic operator workstation fit-outs

These options were designed with the aim of improving operator workstation ergonomics, to prevent MSDs.

To address the variety of industrial environments, IMS products accomplish the four essential, universal movements of:

PNEUMATIC CONSTANT LEVEL DESKS

Pneumatic constant level desks are designed to automatically raise and lower pallet levels during loading / unloading.

As loading / unloading is performed, desk level varies automatically due to the variation in weight, thus lowering / raising desk without the need to operate a control unit.

Desk sensitivity is adjustable by means of a variable sensitivity pneumatic cylinder, based on adjustment pressure applied.

No energy consumption – Once air level is set, desk operates in a closed circuit, with no energy consumption or permanent power cable connection required; DESK CAN THUS BE MOVED EASILY.

THE GUARANTEE OF WORKING AT THE RIGHT HEIGHT – The level is self-correcting as work progresses, so there is no time lost in effecting level changes.

HIGHLY ERGONOMIC – The upper, rotating tray facilitates access to the four sides of the pallet, so the operator no longer needs to move around the load.

This self-levelling pneumatic desk is an excellent complement to any loading or unloading process where pallets are used to transport goods. It decreases operator fatigue, increases productivity and safety, and minimises back pain.

Extensive application areas : Printing, Food industry, Packaging, Chemical industries, Pharmaceutical industries, etc.

STAINLESS STEEL version available.

MOBILE DESKS ON WHEELS

SELF-LEVELLING - ESX SERIES

CAPACITY of 100kg to 800kg

Available as fixed or mobile self-levelling workstations:

For all containers arranged in successive layers requiring frequent handling over several workstations.

Level is automatically adjusted through weight variations during repetitive loading/unloading operations,

A thumbwheel-adjusted spring is used to adjust desk sensitivity based on user needs; this allows the level to self-compensate as a consequence of weight variation, as loading/unloading is performed.

TILT

TILTING TABLES

A tilting movement is essential when working with packaging such as boxes sealed on all sides except for an opening on the top, or when needing to empty a tank.

IMS tilting tables enable horizontal loading; a push button control is used to tilt tables to their maximum angle.

In addition, tilting tables operate on 100% pneumatic energy, while integrated cylinders absorb shocks and jolts inherent to forklift loading.

Tilting tables are also available in STAINLESS STEEL.

IMS Pneumatic, ergonomic tilting table
Series B, capacity of up to 2,000 kg

LIFTING/TILTING EQUIPMENT

These lifting / tilting tables are designed for manufacturers with a range of packaging requiring either the lift function or the tilt function, or the combination of both functions.

IMS lifting / tilting tables enable horizontal loading.

A push button control is used to gradually control both functions individually, until reaching maximum capacity.

The lifting / tilting tables operate on 100% pneumatic energy, while the built-in cylinders absorb shocks and jolts inherent to forklift loading.

They are also available in a STAINLESS-STEEL version.

IMS lifting / tilting table
EB Series, capacity of up to 2,000 kg

LIFTING / TILTING / ROTATING

“LTR” models, or IMS Lifting, Tilting and Rotating tables, enable horizontal loading.

A push button control is used to gradually control both lifting and tilting functions individually, until reaching maximum capacity, followed by rotation, which can be manual or powered.

LTRs operate on 100% pneumatic energy, while integrated cylinders absorb shocks and jolts inherent to forklift loading.

ROTATION

SINGLE OR MULTI-STATION TURNTABLES

Rotating a package makes it easier to access its four sides without the operator themselves needing to move.

IMS turntables can also accommodate several stations on the same platform in order to quickly locate other packages or references during downtime, while swapping complementary packages, all without hindering or interrupting the operator’s work.

Turntable stations can be equipped with tilting / height adjustment or satellite rotation for optimal WORKSTATION ERGONOMY.

Manual or powered rotation available.

IMS expertise at your service

IMS workstation ergonomics experts are available to analyse your operating environment in-situ, and work together with you in designing solutions for better working conditions.

Working in better conditions to avoid MSDs!

Back pain or more broadly MSDs (Musculoskeletal Disorders) are increasingly evident in medical statistics.

Indeed, up to 25% of sick leave time is due to back problems. Only about two-thirds of those affected see a doctor or self-medicate. For several years, the number of people affected has been increasing.

However, in the workplace, operators could be helped very easily, as ergonomic solutions are available to sustainably and reliably reduce sickness and significantly curb the huge costs associated with sick pay.

Once investments have been made, they provide lasting benefits for years to come. They also prevent the situation from worsening, and, to a degree, physical injury can be prevented or even reversed.

In addition to financial aspects, such measures also result in increased worker focus and productivity.
