Aerospace engineers and plant maintenance leads handling large engine components or massive subassemblies require lifting solutions that exceed the safety and stability limits of standard catalog equipment. When operations demand the precise positioning of multi-ton loads, dual-column lift systems provide the necessary capacity and control. At Unidex, we design these heavy-duty lift platforms to transform […]

Material handling equipment helps streamline workflows, improves ergonomics for workers, and protects large, heavy, or awkward materials from damage. Over time, gradual wear and tear can make this equipment more difficult to use or more prone to maintenance and repair. The result is a loss of system efficiency and greater risk of injury or damage […]

The right ergonomic lifting system can handle specialized tasks and materials to improve operational efficiency and reduce the risk of worker injuries. In contrast, choosing the wrong lifting equipment or a suboptimal installation can be more burdensome, disruptive, and expensive than helpful. So it’s important to understand the available options and make an informed choice […]

In many industrial settings, workplace injury risk is related to improper moving or handling of materials and equipment. When poor lifting technique, inappropriate tools, or inadequate protective equipment are used workers can become hurt, products and materials can be damaged, and equipment can be broken. At Unidex, we manufacture top-quality ergonomic lifting systems that reduce […]

Hydraulics is a specific branch of fluid mechanics that is focused on the engineering applications of fluids, often water and oil, inside systems. A hydraulic lift uses liquid contained in a sealed system to create and control the movement of objects and lift loads efficiently. Learn more about how they work and some of the […]

What Are Battery-Powered Industrial Lift Positioners? Battery-powered lift positioners are industrial lifts that can hold, raise, and move various loads while relying on a portable battery as the power source. These mobile units are designed to lift heavy equipment and supplies into position for loading, unloading, or repairs. This results in greater flexibility for employees […]

Click to Expand Aerospace handling equipment plays an important role in the production and maintenance of aircraft and spacecraft. Used by manufacturers and maintenance providers, it facilitates the safe and controlled movement of heavy or oversized loads. This article will discuss the benefits of using aerospace handling equipment for factories and help readers choose equipment […]

Scissor lifts work to vertically elevate workers and equipment for many material handling tasks, making them a popular option in numerous industries. Although scissor lifts can be useful in certain situations, they come with several drawbacks that may not make them the best option for your needs. As a suitable alternative, portable hydraulic (PH) lift […]

Lift tables are adjustable surfaces used to raise, lower, and convey goods and materials within a facility or workspace. While lift tables are available in a wide range of materials, stainless steel is the material of choice for the food and pharmaceutical industries. Stainless steel is strong, corrosion-resistant, and easy to sanitize. It is ideal […]

Manipulators and robot arms require end effectors to perform their designated tasks. They function by attaching to manipulator arms or a robot’s wrist, which enables this equipment to interact with a subject.  Operators often rely on gripper end effectors to lift and handle certain objects using robotic machinery, which is why these components are ideal […]
