Projektumsetzung im Detail
BÜTER Hebetechnik GmbH has developed height-adjustable work platforms that can be flexibly adapted to different body sizes and assembly heights. Integrated storage areas on the sides mean that the required tools and components are always within easy reach, making the work steps more efficient and ergonomic.
Increased working area and gap reduction for assembly work on the forklift thanks to hydraulic extensions with electrical cut-off on contact. The safety of employees against falling is ensured at all times by a foldable railing on the extension. It is easy to operate from the top of the platform.
To increase safety, there is a bellows as underrun protection to the assembly line.
