G-Force Hoist & Quadra-Tilt Lifters

G-Force Hoist & Quadra-Tilt Lifters

The G-ForceTM by Gorbel® provides the best of both worlds:
the responsiveness and flexibility of a human operator
plus the power of machine!

The G-ForceTM is a part of a new family of materials handling equipment known as Intelligent Assist Devices (IAD's) that bridge the gap between automatic, robotic handling and purely manual solutions. The G-Force uses patented technology and an industrial processor-controlled drive system to deliver unmatched lifting precision and speed. It enables operators to lift and maneuver naturally, as if the device were an extension of their own arm. The G-Force, coupled with Powr-Grip's® Quadra-Tilt Lifters, helps to increase profitability by improving productivity, reducing product damage, and minimizing work-related injuries.

G-ForceTM Features:

  • Choice of 330 lbs [150 kg] or 660 lbs [300 kg] maximum load capacity.*
  • Grab and Go positioning... no switches, buttons or valves.
  • Pinpoint precision - speeds from 1 fpm [0.3 mpm] up to 50 fpm [15 mpm] (for 660-lb hoist) or even 100 fpm [30 mpm] (for 330-lb hoist).
  • Blazing speed - travels up to 4 times faster than traditional high-quality lifting devices.
  • Infinite speed control--ideal for applications that require high speed at some points in the cycle and slow, precise movements at other points.
  • A range of speeds - perfect for quick, repetitive motions and slow, precise placements.

Quadra-Tilt Lifters:
Quadra-Tilt Lifters feature an innovative four-bar tilt mechanism that significantly reduces the effort of tilting loads between flat and upright positions. This tilt mechanism also reduces hazards associated with lifting loads from upright racks: When a load is tilted to either the upright or the flat position, the lifter maintains the load position automatically without using latches, eliminating the tendency for a load to "kick back" at the operator's knees. G-Force Hoist integration is currently available with the following Quadra-Tilt Lifters:

*Note: The load capacity of a vacuum lifter equipped with a G-ForceTM Hoist is limited to the hoist capacity, even if a greater capacity is listed for the lifter. In addition, the lifter weight must be subtracted from the hoist capacity to determine the allowable load weight.
