Gorbel Work Station Cranes are a proven way to reduce injuries, especially back injuries.

Increased productivity
Gorbel Work Station Cranes help your workers work more productively than traditional I-beam cranes. A study conducted by the Human Factors Laboratory at Rochester Institute of Technology* for Gorbel shows that work station cranes increase productivity up to 28 percent compared with I-beam cranes.

Ease of movement and positioning
Gorbel Work Station Bridge Cranes can move a load three times more easily than a traditional I-beam crane. This ease of movement and positioning results from Gorbel's unique enclosed track design, high strength-to- weight ratio, and rigid runways with anti-binding end trucks.

Improved work force utilization
Gorbel Work Station Cranes can help you reach the typical ergonomic goal in material handling: Allowing a task to be performed by 90 percent of your workers. For instance, the Rochester Institute of Technology study commissioned by Gorbel shows that less than 10 percent of men can safely handle a 4,000-lb. load on a manual I- beam crane, but more than 99 percent can do so on a Gorbel Work Station Crane.
