When we began writing about Ergonomicsmore than 35 years ago, we were simplyattempting to bring a more scientific perspectiveto a common sense issue. If you consider thecapabilities and limitations of the worker inthe design of the workplace, the worker willbe more productive and that productivitycontributes to profit.

At the time we had no idea that the topic of

ergonomics would become so widely discussed,by so many people, in so many professions, withso many agendas. Despite all of the politics and

hoopla, our view today is the same as it was 35 years ago. The practicalapplication of ergonomic principles is a core business proposition.Yes, it is about reducing worker fatigue and the risk of worker injury,which are very worthwhile objectives. However, the real desired benefitdriving factory or warehouse investment is increased productivity and animproved bottom line. Thats what an investment in practical ergonomicsproduces and that is the point we have been making for decades.

Improvement in productivity from the use of ergonomic equipment iseasier to achieve and more important than ever. Lean manufacturingrequires minimizing material handling and all of the products describedin this brochure can do just that. In an effort to demonstrate thatergonomic equipment will pay for itself we have developed asimple cost justification wheel. It shows how percentage gains inproductivity can usually provide full payback of equipment costs in justa few months. If you would like a wheel, just give us a call and well behappy to send you one.

Southworth is proud to offer more products that improve productivitythan any other materials handling company. The following pageshave specific products and descriptions of how they can improveyour companys bottom line. For more information please call us at800-743-1000 or visit www.SouthworthProducts.com.

Sliding boxes off of pallets, workbenches, orshelves onto lifter/transporters eliminates

lifting. Once loaded they moveeasily around the plant, even intight spaces where a forklift orpallet truck could not go. Loads

can then be vertically positioned(by manual foot pump or electricpower), for easy offloading.Workers are more productive,fatigue is reduced and the riskof injury is minimized.

Available in manual or powered drive.

Tilters and upenders perform a variety of importanttasks in all types of manufacturing and processingfacilities. When loads need to be reorientated orpositioned for better access, upenders fit the bill.For positioning large rolls of paper, film or foil, rollhandling tables can be used to feed at one end ofa line or take-away at the other end. Southworthproducts are available in several configurations to suthe platform, tilt angle and capacity requirements ofany application.

Reorienting work or material between horizontaland vertical positions should only be attempted withequipment that truly secures the load. Otherwise, theis a risk of time consuming production bottlenecks aswell as an increased risk of injury. By incorporatingtilters or upenders into the process, work flows quicksmoothly and safely.
