Muffler Manufacturer Easily Adapts Easy Arm® to Automotive Assembly Process

Background

A large muffler manufacturer had concerns about worker safety and fatigue during the assembly process of their exhaust assemblies. 


The Problem

The welding area of assembly required workers to lift the large exhaust assemblies multiple times between welding cells. Not only was this process a safety concern but it caused fatigue and a slowdown in production.


The Solution

The company decided on several Easy Arms with slide handle controls and custom gripper end tooling. The new setup allows a single operator to move the exhaust assemblies all around the welding area effortlessly and quickly.
