Follow on Google News | ERGOdynamics Redesigns Trash Can Dumping DeviceERGOdynamics designs & manufactures quality, ergonomic material handling equipment. The newly redesigned waste material dumping device offers even more features to reduce worker injury risks associated with "taking out the trash".
By: Ishbel Lane Marketing Manager for ERGOdynamics ERGOdynamics designed its first waste can dumper about 6 years ago. The original design offered features that beat the competition, but the new design blows them away! The Trash Can Dumper Apparatus allows one person to safely dump heavy trash receptacles up to 500 pounds into a dumpster. Many facilities require employees to consolidate waste from trash cans and rolling totes into larger outdoor dumpsters. Repetitive lifting of large, relatively light trash cans poses a risk to those that can physically perform the task, while others of smaller stature would simply not be able to lift a waste can high enough. A powered trash can lift removes risks of injuries and allows any person to perform this task. A trash can dumping machine will practically eliminate worker's compensation claims associated with taking out the trash - making safety profitable! How is the new ERGOdynamics Waste Can Dumping Device Different? *Heavy Duty Lifting: 500 lb lifting capacity lifts standard trash or industrial scraps *Heavy Duty Steel Construction: *High Lifting Ability: Able to dump trash into dumpster up to 6 feet tall *Versatile: Works with most trash cans, barrels and rolling totes *Portable & Compact: Casters allow machine to easily be moved and fits indoors *Extended Rotation: 140 degree tilt provides optimal dislodging and removal of waste from can * Power options include AC 220V, 110V and 12V DC (the higher the power, the faster the lift) * Optional Tooling allows for automatic opening and closing of dumpster lid. Let's discuss some of these features in more detail to fully understand how the ERGOdynamics trash can dumping machine blows all other away. Vestil manufacturers another trash can dumping device you most likely have seen if you have searched for this type of solution. You will see their machine only reaches 135 degree dumping angle and if you watch the video of the device in action, pay attention to what this looks like. It's simply not far enough for many garbage loads. Cans that are stuffed full or contain wet, sticky trash will likely not dislodge at 135 degrees, which is why we went the extra mile to reach 140 degrees. The seemingly simple act of opening a dumpster lid can pose additional risks. People under 5' 8" or so can find great difficulty in reaching the dumpster lid through the rotation from closed to open and back again. Persons of any stature that already suffer from back, shoulder, neck or arm injuries can exacerbate the injury or cause additional strain. Since ERGOdynamics had the goal of making waste removal safe, a lid lifting feature was incorporated into the new design. These trash can dumping machines are being installed in schools, hospitals, event centers, manufacturing facilities and more. ERGOdynamics can work with your business directly or through an ergonomic consultant or architect of your choice. GSA pricing is offered for eligible government agencies.
