SB — Smart Balancer
01

The challenge

Heavy load handling is one of the leading causes of operator fatigue and injury. Traditional balancers require expensive load cells, manual tuning and cannot handle complex kinematics.

02

The solution

  • Automatic load balancing for easy operator handling.
  • Works on both axial loads and articulated kinematics (SCARA balancing arms).
  • Inclinometers and magnetoresistive sensors measure load speed and position.
  • Lock valves trigger on anomalous motion — active safety.
  • Keeps position regardless of load variation, no manual calibration.
