A device that allows you to handle heavy objects as you wish.
This is a power assist device designed to move suspended workpieces with light force. You can hold the workpiece directly with both hands and smoothly raise and lower it. The lightweight model weighs only 8.5 kg, and lateral movement when installed on a rail is also smooth. Additionally, we offer a HACCP-compliant type for the food industry. It allows for precise positioning where you want to stop, enabling gentle handling with both hands that won't damage the workpiece. We provide comprehensive proposals, including custom lifting devices and ceiling cranes tailored to the workpiece. A new lightweight model with simple dustproof and drip-proof specifications will be released soon! 【Features】 - Constant weight detection with sensors - Operates simply by plugging into an outlet - Positioning can be done in millimeter increments - Movement can be customized according to the task - Flexibly accommodates workpieces of varying weights ● For more details, please contact us.

basic information
■ Safety You can tune safety measures, upper and lower limits, and speed settings to suit the user. Since it constantly detects force during operation, it prevents the hook from bouncing. When the power is OFF or in an emergency stop, the brake holds the position of the chain, preventing the workpiece from falling. ■ Operability You can hold the workpiece directly with both hands and work with light force. It senses human force and assists, enabling smooth movements as intended. Equipped with a standard "inertia canceller" that cancels the inertia of the workpiece's movement, allowing for safer handling of super heavy objects. ■ Precision It supports precise assembly regardless of the weight of the workpiece. ■ Specifications Lightweight - MLS-40K, MLS-80K (scheduled for release soon) - ML-40K, MLS-60K Dustproof and all-weather - MLT-60K, 120K, 240K Standard - ML-60K, 120K, 240K, 480K Super heavy - MLH-480K, 960K HACCP - MLF-60K, 120K, 240K Dustproof - MLP-480K

Detailed information
-
Introduced in the assembly process of cabins for construction and agricultural machinery, the installation of doors weighing over 20 kg, which previously required two people for bolt tightening, can now be done by one person. This has eliminated the physical strain of working in a bent-over position, contributing to improved safety on site and enhanced quality.
-
Inspection of the appearance of the suspended scaffolding after rental and introduction for transport. After conducting an appearance check for any scratches or damage on the approximately 42kg suspended scaffolding returned from rental, it is used for the task of aligning and arranging it in the correct orientation. The ability to adjust the height for movements such as flipping and rotating to align the orientation allows for working in a comfortable posture.
-
Introduced for transporting molds weighing up to 1 ton. The MLH-1500K is used for tasks such as placing molds on maintenance stands and flipping molds. The ML-240K is used for setting molds onto processing machines. There is no need for fine incremental movements with the remote control, allowing for smooth and safe handling of molds.
-
The introduction of a task to package 10-20L bags of seasoning in a bag-in-box (BIB) into cardboard boxes resulted in a significant workload, with the careful insertion of bags into the boxes being done slowly to avoid damage, sometimes reaching 200 times a day. After the introduction, the task became manageable for women as well, leading to improvements in operations.
-
Introduced a task to set approximately 20 kg parts into processing machines about 40 times a day. In the factory, there were many tasks involving setting parts into processing machines, and manual jib cranes and hoists were used for the work, but the number of users was limited. After the introduction, even women and the elderly were able to use it immediately, making it a task that anyone could perform.
-
Introduction of equipment for loading and unloading heavy parts such as electric vehicle batteries. Previously, we used a manual chain block, and it sometimes required three people to work together: one to lift and lower, one to align, and one to attach and detach bolts. Now, heavy parts can be moved freely by one person, greatly improving work efficiency.
-
Introduced for the task of repeatedly loading heavy plastic containers, which can weigh over 15kg, onto a cart. There are no cumbersome operations, allowing for smooth work with both hands, and it can be operated with a human-like touch, so anyone can work without confusion, improving work efficiency. The main unit is lightweight, making it easy to move, and it can be used anywhere as long as there is a 100V outlet, which is also an attractive feature.
-
The introduction of a system for transporting cardboard boxes and containers weighing around 20 kg that contain onions allows for both boxes and containers to be lifted with the same lifting equipment. Since there is no need to change the settings even if the weight varies, the explanation of the operating procedures has been minimized, enabling part-time workers to use it immediately. Additionally, due to equipment constraints, the proposal for a scaffold installation fixture was a decisive factor in the implementation, as we wanted to avoid anchors and ceiling work.

Awarded the Invention Achievement Award at the 50th (2024) Invention Awards! By collaborating with the Moon Lifter, we can assist with the weight of the work on collaborative robots, significantly increasing the robot's carrying capacity. Heavy work handling can be achieved in a space-saving and cost-effective manner without the need to introduce large robots.

Company information
Unipulse Corporation is a sensor manufacturer. We develop a wide range of products using various technologies, including digital indicators for optimal load application in press-fitting and crimping, capacitive non-contact displacement meters, spindle clamping force measuring devices, small-diameter tool gripping force gauges, and rotating torque meters. In particular, the UTM series of rotating torque meters has become the standard for shaft-type torque measurement and is used in many development and manufacturing sites. In recent years, we have internalized the production of strain gauges and are manufacturing load cells and multi-force gauges in-house. Our subsidiary, Robotech, develops and sells products such as Uniservo (electric torque actuators) and Moonlifter (electric balancers). Notably, the electric balancer, which constantly detects force and position using load sensors and servo motors, allows for the movement of heavy objects with the sensitivity of human hands. We have received much positive feedback due to its unprecedented ease of use. Moving forward, the Unipulse Group will continue to prioritize research and development, delivering products that are first in Japan and the world.
