Ergonomic & Material Handling Solutions

Tasks that require heavy lifting, repetitive stress, bending and twisting, and pushing/pulling increase the risk of injuries. This includes sprains, muscle pulls, wrist injuries, elbow injuries, spinal injuries, and even catastrophic loss. Effective ergonomic controls and ergonomic lifting solutions can reduce the risk of injuries and provide you and your employees peace of mind.

Custom Lifting Devices

Unique lifting applications call for custom solutions. Our engineers will work with you to meet your specifications whether you need custom vacuum lifters, manipulator arms, ergonomic lifting assists, smart devices, work positioners, balancers, and more.

Manipulator and Torque Reaction Arms

Lifting heavy or awkwardly shaped items can be inefficient and dangerous. Our custom-made manipulators ensure precision and accuracy with every job. Make lifting safe and easy for your whole team with heavy-duty pneumatic or hydraulic manipulators and articulating arms.

Automated Material Handling Solutions

Whether you’re overcoming manpower issues or increasing efficiency and safety, our focus is to provide you with the best solution and real results. Robots and automation guarantee safe, effective work with consistent quality and performance.

Our engineers will integrate a variety of software, machinery, and technologies. This includes conveyors and cartesian pick and place systems to meet even the most challenging applications.

Cranes and Crane Products

Workstation cranes, overhead bridge cranes, Jib Cranes, Gantry Cranes, handheld cranes, and other warehouse cranes are essential in moving, loading, and unloading a variety of heavy materials in all industries and applications.

At John Henry Foster, we represent only the best industry-trusted manufacturers. We repair, service, and test all brands and types of cranes.

Chain Hoists and Manual Chain Hoists

All hoists lift objects up and down, but not all hoists serve the same purpose. How do you know if you have the right hoist for your needs? At JHF, we’ll work with you to select the best hoist for your application.

From electric hoists and wire rope hoists to manual hoists and pneumatic hoists, we’ll work with you to select the best piece of equipment for your business. In turn, you’ll be able to maximize your ROI and ergonomic lifting practices.

Lift Tables and Machinery

Lift tables are used to raise large, heavy loads through relatively small distances. This is typically needed to reposition work to a suitable height for operators. You can enhance safety and reduce injuries with hydraulic, pneumatic, and scissor lifting systems and machinery from John Henry Foster.
