Humantech Ergonomist, Mike Hoonhorst, recently interviewed Stewart Burton, General Manager of Applied Research and Development for Magline about the Magliner LiftPlus System. Burton highlighted some of the key features on the video, "The LiftPlus was designed for ease of use, higher productivity, and to keep workers on the job and free from injuries; lifting 350 pounds easily with an all-metal frame platform and a screw-driven lift that delivers smooth precision that hydraulics or chains just cannot match."

Joe Hurley, Senior VP of Supply Chain at Giant Eagle, noted, "Travel time is the number one enemy of a labor standard, therefore, having a VGV moving product is very advantageous from a labor standards perspective. Unlike other AGVs that have wires ground or placed in the concrete, or reflectors on the racks, we wanted to be very flexible with how we can change routes. One of the keys to that flexibility was having our union personnel to be able to retrain the robot into a new route based upon business demand."

Getec Industrial, manufacturers of heat sinks, extruded aluminum, and drawn tube, provides an overview of how to select a heat sink. The problem is that every device builds up heat as waste energy during operation, energy that lowers the operating efficiency and can damage the device. Designers employ a heat sink to conduct heat away from a hot surface, distributing it across a broader area and dissipating the energy into another medium, usually air. This maintains the device temperature at the operating levels prescribed by the designer and manufacturer. Here's what's required to select a heat sink.
