Description

Excessive forces, repetitive shock and high pressures have been identified as contributors to traumatic and overuse injuries.  Therefore, ANDILOG develops the ERGOKIT product line in order to measure the forces occur by the body during various activities and can be used in order to conduct ergonomic analysis. The ERGOKIT product line measure with high accuracy the force load requires by the human body to perform a work tasks i.e.; lifting, pushing, pulling, moving things around, gripping…

Our Ergokit First is specially designed to suit any measurement situations encountered on the workstation: pulling, pushing, pressing with one’s hand or finger, lifting… With its comfortable neck strap, the Ergokit is an ideal tool for ergonomics specialists and the IPCA wishing to check the level of strain developed by operators at their workstation. Our instruments are ready to use in a compact carrying case and come with a set of accessories: a tension hook, a compression plate, an extension, a push button probe, a multifunction single handle a sling and a shoulder strap.

With a capacity of 500 N, this is a simple and robust system (admitting twice its nominal capacity without damage) for directly reading the maximum value in tension or compression. This digital force gauge is essential for any “live” measurement or for one-off checks.

The key features of the Ergokit FIRST model are:

  • 500N capacity equipment with an accuracy of 0.25% FS
  • Measures push and pull force
