The Articulated Pneumatic Balanced Manipulator SHBM-150-P pro is a versatile and efficient handling solution that combines an articulated linkage system with pneumatic control to ensure smooth and precise load positioning. Designed for industrial applications, it reduces operator effort, improves productivity, and enhances workplace safety when handling loads of up to 150 kg.
The articulated pneumatic balanced manipulator SHBM-150-P pro is a modern solution designed for safe, efficient, and precise handling of loads weighing up to 150 kg. The updated design ensures high reliability, improved performance, and flexible configuration options to meet a wide range of industrial tasks.
Purpose and Design Features of the Pneumatic Manipulator
The SHBM-150-P pro manipulator is intended for material handling operations and handling of components on production lines. Thanks to its balanced articulated linkage system, the unit provides smooth and controlled horizontal movement with virtually no resistance, while the pneumatic control system ensures fast and smooth vertical motion.
Standardization and Compatibility with Grippers
The manipulator can be equipped with any load-handling device that meets the technical requirements. The standardized mounting interface enables quick replacement of grippers without structural modifications, making the manipulator a versatile solution for handling loads of various shapes and sizes.
Control System
The control system of the SHBM-150-P pro is designed to ensure maximum operator comfort and high precision when handling loads.
- Manual control of load movement direction and speed;
- Manual adjustment of load balancing via pressure regulation in the pneumatic system;
- Boom rotation is performed by an electromechanical drive, providing precise and stable 360° rotation around the vertical axis.
All operations can be performed with one hand using an ergonomic handle. Operator training time is minimal.
Manipulator Structure
The SHBM-150-P pro includes the following main components:
- Rotary support unit — provides full 360° boom rotation. All rotating elements are mounted on rolling bearings, ensuring smooth and reliable operation even under load.
- Articulated boom — consists of a main and secondary arm connected by a spring-balanced linkage mechanism, allowing horizontal movement of the load with minimal effort.
- Gripper unit — located at the end of the boom, capable of rotating around the vertical axis and equipped with a standardized mounting interface for interchangeable load-handling devices.
- Pneumatic lifting system — includes a pneumatic cylinder with a pressure regulator and a pneumatic control valve, ensuring automatic load weight compensation and stable positioning at the required height.
- Control handle — used for lifting, lowering, and guiding horizontal movement.
Vertical movement is smooth and stable due to the pneumatic system. When the handle is released, the load is automatically held at the current height.
Optional features:
- Custom load-handling devices for specific applications;
- Floor mounting kit (anchors, template, tools);
- FRL unit (filter-regulator-lubricator) for pneumatic system protection;
- Compressor for independent operation of the pneumatic system;
- Integrated work area lighting for improved visibility;
- Air blow-off gun for surface cleaning;
- Quick-release coupling for fast change of grippers.
Compliance and Safety
- The manipulator is manufactured in compliance with occupational health, industrial safety, and environmental protection requirements in accordance with applicable standards;
- The equipment is equipped with all necessary safety and protection systems;
- The manipulator is certified in compliance with TR CU 010/2011 “On the Safety of Machinery and Equipment”.
