PalletPal Level Loader

PORTLAND, ME: Southworth Products Corp has redesigned its popular, time-tested PalletPal Level Loader to make it still more ergonomic. A new, smaller base makes loading and unloading pallets faster, safer, and easier because it lets the user step even closer to the unit's platform, for the best access to palletized loads. The PalletPal revolutionized manual palletizing in the United States when it was introduced more than 25 years ago. Its use virtually eliminates the productivity-robbing, injury-producing bending, lifting, reaching, and stretching common to pallet-loading applications. Heavy-duty springs automatically lower or raise a pallet as weight is added or removed, maintaining the top layer of stacked containers at a convenient height. And the turntable ring (or optional turntable platform) at the top of the PalletPal allows the user to spin the load so he or she can stand in the same spot throughout the loading or unloading process. ---Southworth Products Corp.
