Presto Lifts P-3 All Around Pallet Positioner, an Ergonomic Solution to Loading and Unloading Pallets

The Second in a series of Ergonomic Solutions from Prime Alliance Marketing featuring Presto Lifts.

The effects of manual material handling represent the biggest single contributor to worker injury in the United States and the application of good ergonomic programs can reduce those incidences.

Choosing and operating the proper piece of equipment for the job at hand is one key to reducing injuries in the works place.

Unnecessary and improper worker activities result in bad ergonomics, which can lead to injury. Lifting, Stretching, Reaching, Bending, Stooping and Walking are the motions that need to be addressed in workplace activities.

In the second of a series highlighting Presto Lifts solutions to common ergonomic problems is a gallery dealing with pallet loading and unloading.

Pallet loading and unloading has always been an ergonomic problem in many manufacturing and distribution environments. As with Basket Loading and Unloading , all six motions that create bad ergonomics come into play when loading and unloading pallets improperly. Setting a pallet on the ground and working from there, is a problem just waiting to happen.  Presto Lifts P3 All Around Automatic Pallet Positioner has been designed specifically to make the job of loading and unloading pallets easier and safer for your work force. Load heights that adjust automatically as items are added or removed along with the turntable top promote the good ergonomics that all work forces need and deserve.

 

 

Berner International Door Heaters

Berner Door Heater

Heating loss has always been a problem when shipping and receiving doors are frequently opened and closed. The infiltration of cold air makes it difficult to maintain a comfortable working environment.

Berner Direct Gas Fired Door Heater’s are the economical solution to this problem. A duct axial fan directs a high velocity stream of heated air towards the door opening. The hot air mixes with the incoming cold air providing a warm comfortable environment.

The door heater is activated through a limit switch. When the door is opened there is a brief pre-purge and safety function check. The fan starts, directing a high velocity stream of hot air that heats the incoming cold air.

Engineered for versatility the door heater can be mounted at any angle between horizontal and vertical to satisfy most applications. All heaters are factory assembled and shipped ready for connection to electric power and natural gas supplies.

Look What I Found

Aqua Turf Presto LiftWhile I was unloading Cogan’s booth for yesterdays Warner Specialty Products Show in the Aqua Turf’s garage, (great design boys). I found this ancient Presto Lifts Manual Stacker. The head guy there said they use it all the time. Years and years of reliable service with no end in site.  If it wouldn’t have taken so long to clean the years of hard use off of it, I would have wheeled it out into Presto’s booth to show it off. What a find!

Prime Alliance Marketing always looks forward to doing joint, end user calls with our New England dealers. These calls bring us into a very diverse range of facilities. Everything from huge manufacturing plants to commercial retail space with every variation in between. There’s rarely a time I go in on one of these joint calls and don’t run across at least one piece of Presto equipment. Much of it older than me, (not really), and still going strong.
