A specialty film manufacturer needed to install roller dies on an embossing machine. The reach to the die station was over 52”, and the machine provided no clearance underneath for forward-protruding lift legs. This lift uses a long boom to position the dies at the station, and the boom can be folded down for storage. The lift’s legs are short and countermass is used for stability. A lateral shuttle was added to assist with positioning. Due to the total weight of the system, a powered drive wheel was included for easy, walk-behind operation, eliminating high push forces and associated ergonomic concerns.
