Using a ground-level platform, which slides under items that are in tandem, using a long, tilting load backrest, the T7ZAC Heavyweight Handler is able to pick up and support an array of items during transportation.
The handler simplifies the process of manually loading and unloading flat-pack items, along with oddly shaped objects—a necessity as bulky and irregular items continue to be purchased during the e-commerce era.
By using the handler, operators can reduce unloading times and labor requirements by 50% and 40%, respectively, when compared to lifting and moving items by hand. And, they can decrease any risks generally associated with physical strain, as brute strength alone is no longer required.
