If everything is a priority, then nothing is a priority. Above all, prioritize safety. 

Working with machines is a dangerous task. Every year, thousands of workers are injured and hundreds more are killed due to heavy machinery accidents in the workplace. 

That’s why safety is a major concern for manufacturers in any industry. Taking the proper precautions, such as adding safety laser scanners to your facility, is literally a life-or-death decision.

Conveyor belts are the unsung heroes of material handling in manufacturing. 

Transporting products in a warehouse, especially a large warehouse, is no simple task. 

Depending on the size and weight of the parts or products, it could be one of the more time-consuming tasks in production. 

For example, a nearly-complete truck model in an automotive facility can weigh almost a ton.  

A conveyor belt can make a difficult transport into a mindless process that requires little to no effort from workplace employees.

It’s easy to improve production speed and capacity with a spot welding machine.

Welding is one of the most common applications in manufacturing. By melting joints together, manufacturers can offer their customers a stable and durable product built to last. 

Before the product goes to the customer, however, clean welds are a must. That’s why a spot welding machine, like our Dengensha product, is the perfect solution to both automate your welding processes and improve the quality of your welds.

Experience the long-lasting benefits of a servo drive with a minimal investment. 

Energy drives manufacturing. Over half of the manufacturing industry’s energy usage comes from motors and drives, which adds up to a hefty bill. 

Using a servo drive not only reduces energy usage, but it will also cut your electricity bill.

Safety around heavy machinery is a must. Light curtains offer an ingenious—and inexpensive—way to protect your employees. 

OSHA, the Occupational and Safety Health Administration, makes a big deal about workplace safety, and for good reason. Every year, thousands of workers sustain serious injuries, such as amputations, due to improper machine guarding. 

Light curtains are a simple solution to this problem. Learn more about how light curtains work and how to buy a light curtain at iGAM below! 

Hoists offer a simple solution for lifting heavy, awkward equipment or objects. 

Humans and industrial robots have their limitations, especially when it comes to heavy lifting. 

Even the strongest industrial robot will struggle to lift a load with weight that is unevenly distributed. These cumbersome objects can cause your productivity to plummet. 

Thankfully, hoists can easily lift these types of objects without putting anyone’s safety at risk. Learn more about hoists and where to get one at iGAM below.
