Case Study Collection: How is Iguchi Bear Used for Labor Saving and Efficiency Improvement?

Due to being dispersed by multiple ball transfers, it can easily move 360 degrees in any direction even under larger loads.

Attention safety managers and designers of factories and facilities! The "ISB Iguchi Bear" is a ball transfer system consisting of one main ball supported by numerous sub-balls, which are held by a ball receiving section. It allows for smooth movement of items in all directions, 360°. Tasks that are difficult or potentially hazardous when done manually can be performed safely. "Example of actual use" Challenge 1) Due to lack of space and inability to use a forklift, manual labor is required, which can lead to injuries. Solution 1) By creating a transport line with the Iguchi Bear, work can be done safely with approximately 3/100 of the force. Challenge 2) Changing direction with only rollers requires space. Solution 2) By installing the Iguchi Bear, it can bend in a compact space. Challenge 3) It is difficult to roll up neatly with only rollers due to vibrations and other factors. Solution 3) Using the downward Iguchi Bear can prevent misalignment (fine adjustment) when rolling up sheets. You can check actual photos in the case study collection.
