The ergonomic positioning of parts is the key to an efficient workstation.

Unnecessary movements add no value and are therefore wasteful. They consume valuable production time and place an additional strain on the worker. This is why all grab distances should be as short as possible.

Grab containers and parts containers placed in direct reach of the employee are ideal. The containers should be arranged to allow for a flowing, ascending arch sequence of motions based on the body’s natural movement.

Moreover, two-handed grabbing and joining can cut assembly time by up to 50%. The ergonomic design of the grab containers based on MTM (Method of Time Measurement) serves to effectively pre-separate the parts: the grab ledges have ridges to enable quick and secure part picking.
