ZASCHE handling Introduces Series of Carbon-fiber Material Handling Solutions
Innovative, Lightweight Range Promotes Greater Worker Acceptance.
ZASCHE handling, a leading provider for load handling technology, unveils its new series of carbon-fiber handling solutions. Engineered in close consultation with a renowned German university, the low weight Carbon series offers high performance that does not compromise on safety. The product is available globally in articulated arm and lifting axle formats.
With this launch, ZASCHE is proposing a new way forward in industrial material handling. Compared to regular industrial manipulators, the Carbon series realizes impressive weight savings, providing users with an efficient manual handling device of very low inertia. This feature improves significant ergonomics on the shop floor, as it ensures that device dead weight is kept lower than a workpiece’s mass.
“Often, workers fall back into old ways when new equipment does not seem to improve working conditions,” commented Erwin Wagner, Managing Director, ZASCHE handling. “Our product development process considers the fact that manual workstations are subject to increasingly higher requirements of ergonomics and hand forces. At ZASCHE, we are dedicated to delivering solutions that meets customers’ felt needs, and the Carbon series attests to our commitment.”

Wagner continued, “Before the pandemic, our customers used to be able to personally experience ZASCHE’s solutions with their work pieces. Even as travel restrictions gradually loosen, we’re mindful to offer alternatives to those who can’t yet visit our physical showroom. The team is committed to serving our customers the best we can, and we’ll continue evolving to stay ahead.”
