Boosting Manufacturing Efficiency Through Ergonomic Improvements

In manufacturing, whether assembling components for electronics, aircraft, automobiles, or appliances, it's crucial to identify potential ergonomic risk factors to protect employees from work-related injuries. Electric and pneumatic power tools often produce torque reactions that can lead to repetitive stress injuries in operators over time, affecting productivity and resulting in costly workers' compensation claims and litigation expenses.

Creating ergonomic assembly stations is essential for any manufacturing organization to minimize strain and stress on workers' bodies. By following good ergonomic practices, companies can ensure their employees' safety, comfort, and health. Involving assembly operators in the ergonomic discussion allows them to identify areas of concern and contribute to improvements.

Ergonomic torque arms are designed to absorb torque transfer from tools to operators, making them ideal for various assembly tools and applications in the automotive, aerospace, appliances, and electronics industries. Constructed with lightweight yet durable carbon fiber, telescoping torque arms collapse like a telescope for easy handling and increased production efficiency.

Mountz's EZ-Glider telescoping torque arm reduces repetitive motion injuries and carpal tunnel syndrome by eliminating torque reaction from power and pneumatic assembly tools. These arms come in models suitable for light industrial fastening applications as well as high torque bolting applications, offering flexibility in mounting options and requiring minimal maintenance.

By suspending power tools above the assembly station, ergonomic torque arms prevent accidental tool drops and ensure precise alignment with fasteners. This reduces cross-threading risk and strengthens quality control. Ergonomic torque arms promote a safer work environment through accuracy and precision, ultimately preventing employee injuries and additional expenses.
