Intelligent Assist Devices - G-Force® and Easy Arm™
- We are restructuring one of the workstations in our plant that currently has a Gorbel workstation crane and G-Force® BX300 unit with the float mode option. Up until now we could always lift the castings from the bins and move them into the milling station and never have to move outside the coverage area of the crane system. Under the new layout we may have to lift at a 30 degree angle in order to empty the incoming bins completely. Will this pose any problem for our G-Force®?
- What is the recommendation for G-Force® and Easy Arm® preventative maintenance? I seem to have lost my Installation Manual.
- Is there a list of recommended spare parts for my G-Force® (or Easy Arm®)?
- What are the power requirements for your G-Force® products? Does the Easy Arm® require more power than a BXi300 unit?
- Is the G-Force® classified as a balancer or a hoist?
- How long is the warranty for the G-Force®?
- Can the speed of the G-Force® be changed?
- Can float mode be added to a G-Force® unit in the field if it was originally purchased without float mode?
- What are the operating and current requirements for the G-Force®?
- What are the standard features of the BX and BXi units?
- What are the added intelligence capabilities of the BXi unit?
- What are some of the applications for the G-Force®?
