EASY ARM™
INTELLIGENT LIFTING ARM

CAPACITIES 165 LB. AND 330 LB.


		INTELLIGENT ERGONOMIC LIFTING
		G-Force® and Easy Arm™ devices are part of an exciting new family of material handling equipment know as Intelligent Assist Devices (IAD's). They use exclusive patented technology and an industrial processor controlled servo drive systems to deliver unmatched lifting precision and speed. Their fusion of advanced technology and basic human guidance maximizes productivity while minimizing the risk of injury to the operator.

		MAN MEETS MACHINE
		G-Force® technology fills the void between traditional lifting devices and completely automated robotic solutions. These devices use the human's intelligence and adaptability for guidance but the work is done by the device.

G-FORCE® AND EASY ARM™ TECHNOLOGY:
THE SMARTER WAY TO LIFT

INFINITE SPEED CONTROL	THE SAFE ALTERNATIVE
The G-Force® and Easy Arm™ move with the operator. They move as fast or as slow as the operator chooses to move. They are ideal for applications that require high speed at some points in the cycle and slow, precise movements at other points.	Operators want to use the G-Force® and Easy Arm™ because they’re easy to learn and easy to use. They are safer than manual lifting and dramatically reduce worker injury cost.

	Anti-Recoil Technology
	Anti-Recoil Technology
Blazing Speeds	This prevents the G-Force® or Easy Arm™ from moving or recoiling when there is a sudden change in load, reducing the risk of potentially serious injury.
With G-Force® speeds reaching 200 fpm (61 mpm) and Easy Arm™ speeds reaching 180 fpm (55 mpm), these devices travel up to 4 times faster than traditional high-end lifting devices currently on the market, making them the fastest, most precise lifting devices on the planet.

	Capacity overload
	The unit will not lift if the load exceeds the rated capacity of the G-Force® or Easy Arm™.

Pinpoint Precision
Pinpoint Precision	Power Loss Protection
The G-Force® and Easy Arm™ deliver unparalleled precision with speeds of less than 1 fpm (0.3 mpm). This gives the operator the control necessary to finesse expensive or fragile parts.	Power Loss Protection
	A fail safe load braking system locks the unit in place in the event of a power loss.

	Operator Present Function
	The handle grip of the G-Force® and Easy Arm™ uses a built-in photo sensor that doesn't’t allow the unit to move unless the operator initiates the movement.

THE SMART INVESTMENT
G-Force® technology makes your work force more productive by increasing their efficiency and enabling them to perform complex tasks. The G-Force® and the Easy Arm™ are more cost effective than completely robotic solutions and they don’t require the costly custom programming that robots need to perform even the simplest tasks.

	Float Mode Option
	Both the G-Force® and Easy Arm™ offer our versatile Float Mode. With a mere 1/2 lb (227 g) of force on the load itself, operators can precisely orient loads throughout the full stroke range by manipulating the load with their hands.


THE PERFECT SOLUTION The G-Force® and Easy Arm™ give you the best of both worlds: the responsiveness and flexibility of a human operator plus the power of a machine. And, they incorporate a range of speeds, making them perfect for quick, repetitive motions and slow, precise placements.

		G-FORCE® IN ACTION: AUTOMOTIVE
		END-USER: A major automobile manufacturer and parts supplier. APPLICATION: Convertible car tops measuring 4’ x 6’ and weighing 200 lbs are being moved from a conveyor to a pallet lift for inspection, then taken away.

		WHY G-FORCE? They had been using a two-speed chain hoist with a maximum speed of 16 feet-per-minute. “The assembly line was running faster than the workers could offload the product with the chain hoist,” said the line supervisor. With speeds up to 200 feet-per-minute, the G-Force® Q is able to perform as fast as the operators can move, and gives them complete control of their load.

		RESULTS: The speed that operators are able to work, and the frequency of loads they are able to handle, has greatly increased. Workers are able to consistently match the assembly line’s output of 22 units per hour.

• Saving valuable floor space • Hook heights over 11’ • Covering multiple work cells			• Reaching into a work cell or around obstructions • Reaching under overhead obstructions like conveyors or exhaust hoods • Reaching into machines • High cycle pick and place • Loading/unloading machined parts


EASY ARM™ IN ACTION: MANUFACTURING

END-USER: Pressure Technology of Ohio

APPLICATION: Raw materials weighing up to 250 lbs are loaded into a furnace for heat treatment. During an average shift, an operator may move up to 600 parts.

WHY EASY ARM? They had been using an overhead crane system and chain hoist, but this was slow and bulky. It was also shared throughout the facility, so operators tended to move parts by hand rather than using the hoist, which concerned the company. The 330 LB Easy Arm™ was perfect for the job, and they didn't have to share it.

RESULTS: “We are very pleased with the easy arm™,” said pressure technology’s plant Manager. “We are able to get precise part placement using float mode, and it’s been a very easy piece of equipment to integrate into the workplace. Since we installed the easy arm™, we have eliminated many of our concerns related to product handling.”

ADDED INTELLIGENCE FEATURES

There are two G-Force® and Easy Arm™ models to choose from: the Q and the iQ. The Q model is our feature packed base model. It offers the same speed and precision as our higher-end IQ model, but without the added Input/Output features that the IQ offers. The IQ model offers a wealth of additional intelligence features.

The Q and the IQ may look the same on the outside, but under their covers is a different story.

FEATURE COMPARISON	Q	IQ
Teachable Virtual Limits and Speed Reduction Points	Available as a software adder	Standard
Virtual limits are specific points in the lifting range where the G-Force® and Easy Arm™ can be programmed to stop or change speeds. Set speed reduction points a few inches above or below a desired location when handling a fragile load. When the operator reaches that point, the units automatically shift to a lower programmed speed and then stop in the desired spot for controlled positioning every time.
Programmable Inputs and Outputs	N/A	Standard
The IQ unit comes standard with 8 Input/Output points in the actuator. Standard "out of box" common functions like an additional set of virtual limits and a maintenance indicator are already assigned to the Input/Output points to reduce the need for custom programming. Flexible and convenient optional Input/Output blocks, each containing 8 Input/Output points, can be added below the G360™ Swivel Assembly to provide just the right functionality for your application. This block includes standard functions such as Auto-Home, Dual Weight Float Mode, and Anti-Drop.
Other Features	N/A	Standard
The IQ allows you to control one G-Force® or Easy Arm™ unit with two handles, which is ideal for applications when tooling requires more than one point of control. You can also control two G-Force® units with one handle, which is useful when you want two points of control for large tooling.


	SOFT TOUCH CONTROL HANDLES MAKE TOOLING INTEGRATION EASIER

				Use our Soft Touch Control Handles to control any air or electric powered equipment, such as end-effector tooling for the G-Force® or Easy Arm™. A common handle base for air or electric applications gives you design commonality and flexibility, whether your application requires air valves for direct control of end tooling, or electric switches to activate your G-Force® or Easy Arm™ IQ inputs.

				Why choose a Soft touch Control handle?
				• Flexible design easily integrates into new equipment layouts • Easy replacement of any standard pneumatic or electric handles • Engineered for easy use to reduce potential for fatigue and repetitive stress injuries • Offers more flexibility in tooling choices and the ability to customize tooling for applications • Costs less than most comparable handles

G-FORCE® AND EASY ARM™ Q AND IQ
HANDLE CONFIGURATION OPTIONS

The G-Force® and Easy Arm™ were designed to
provide flexibility in handle configurations. Choose
from the following four configurations to best fit your
application.

In-Line Slide handle
The in-line slide handle allows the
operator to get close to the load for
more control and precision. With
this handle, the load moves with the
motion of the operator’s hand.

Remote Mount Slide Handle
This configuration offers the same
smooth control as the slide handle,
but accommodates set-ups where the
operators can’t be close to the load.

Suspended Pendant Control Handle

This handle is ideal when you
have limited headroom, when
the operator can’t get close to
the load or when the operator
needs maximum lifting stroke.
This handle can also be used
when you expect the load to
bounce or tip during lifting.

INNOVATIVE HANDLE DESIGN

1. G 360™ Swivel Assembly

The G-Force® and Easy Arm™ have a combined
collector/air swivel that allows the handle to continuously
rotate without damaging electrical conductors in the coil
cord or optional air coil. This is ideal in applications
where the operator is continuously rotating the handle.

Remote Mount Pendant
Control Handle

2. LCD Display

Backlit display on the handle allows for menu style set up
of features like Virtual Limits and Speed Reduction
Points. It also communicates valuable information like
operation modes, weight, readout, diagnostic information,
and fault codes.

Choose this design when the
handle is mounted more than
one foot from where the wire
rope attaches to tooling, or when
you expect the load to bounce
or tip during lifting.

3. Operator Present Function

The handle grip of the G-Force® or Easy Arm™ uses a built in
photo sensor, making it safe and intuitive. This method senses
the presence of the operator’s hand without a physical lever to
depress. The result is safe, smooth operation because the
operator is not tempted to use the Operator Present Sensor safety
feature as a start/stop control.

4. Ergonomic Handle Design

Our long lasting handle was designed with your operator’s
comfort in mind. Its shape, size, and material were carefully
planned to fit comfortably in the curve of your hand, while its
rubber, textured coating gives you a positive grip.

Infinite Speed Control: The G-Force® moves with the
motion of the operator, going as fast or as slow as the
operator chooses to move. It is ideal for heavy lifting
applications that require high speed at some points in the
cycle and slow, precise movements at other points.

Pinpoint Precision: The G-Force® delivers unparalleled
precision throughout its full range of speed. This gives the
operator the control necessary to finesse expensive or
fragile parts.

Safety Features: Anti-Recoil Technology, Capacity
Overload, Power Loss Protection, Operator Present
Function

Float Mode Option: As with all other G-Force® models,
the 1320 lb. capacity unit can be equipped with Float
Mode. With Float Mode engaged, operators can apply
a very slight amount of force onto the load itself to
precisely orient loads with both hands throughout the full
stroke range.

“There was a definite ‘wow factor’ the first time we saw the G-Force. Everyone
who touched it was amazed with the ability to float such large parts.”


		As business grew for hydraulic cylinder manufacturer Best Metal Products, so did the size of their product. As a producer of cylinders for use in large cranes, mining equipment and man lifts, they saw demand for heavier duty cylinders increase. The result was their existing products nearly doubling in size and weight.

		“We were regularly making cylinders that were topping out at around 600 pounds,” said Matt Malfroid, Quality & Training Supervisor for Best Metal Products. “Now we expanded our product offering to include cylinders that weigh more than 1,000 pounds. We didn’t have a safe way to lift them.”

		After examining chain hoists as an option, they sought a lifting device that gave operators more control and maneuverability when handling the large cylinders. After a G-Force® demonstration with the company’s work force, they found that the best solution was right in their hands.

		They purchased a 1320 lb/600 kg G-Force® with a magnetic end effector to grip and move the cylinders.

		“Control is the big thing,” said one operator. “Once I lock onto the part with the magnet, I can lift it, rotate it or put it in float mode to position it onto the clamp exactly where it needs to be.”
