PM Manipulators are industrial pneumatic manipulator systems developed for ergonomic handling, loading, unloading and controlled positioning of paper rolls, printing bobbins, film rolls and wound materials in the printing industry.

In printing press operations, roll weight, winding sensitivity, surface protection, machine feeding angle and operator ergonomics must all be evaluated together.

Ergonomic Handling of Printing Rolls

Manual handling of paper rolls and printing bobbins can create physical strain for operators. PM Manipulators help these rolls to be moved in a more controlled, balanced and safe way.

Internal Gripping and Controlled Rotation

Internal gripping systems can be developed according to roll and bobbin form. According to operational requirements, products can be rotated by 90 degrees or 180 degrees in a controlled way.

Printing Machine Feeding and Line Transfer

PM Manipulators can be adapted to printing industry operations such as:

• paper roll handling
• printing bobbin handling
• film roll handling
• machine feeding
• roll loading
• roll unloading
• controlled rotation
• production line transfer
