ErgoMove 500 for workshop trolleys

Ergonomics and flexibility at the workplace

The customer

PETec GmbH has been developing height-adjustable work, assembly and welding tables for industry and trade since 2019. The products are all designed and manufactured at the headquarters in Meschede.


The challenge

With the "PETec Move and Lift" workshop trolley, the company has created a solution that combines ergonomics and flexibility. The total weight of the trolley can reach up to 500 kilograms. The ability to adjust the working and handle height within a few seconds already makes the trolley an ergonomic all-rounder. However, there was still room for improvement in the previous concept when it came to moving the trolley. Manual operation caused strain on the musculoskeletal system, especially with frequent starts and long transport distances. PETec needed a solution that was not only more ergonomic, but also flexible and efficient to use.


Our solution

With the ErgoMove 500 electric drive system from Blickle, PETec has been able to significantly optimize the operation of the workshop trolley. With its sensor handle, the system ensures easy starting, precise steering and safe braking of loads of up to 500 kilograms - without any physical effort. The folding mechanism developed by PETec itself ensures that the sensor handle is not in the way during assembly work. Thanks to Plug & Play, the ErgoMove system could be easily integrated into the existing design of the "Move and Lift". The use of rechargeable batteries ensures an almost unlimited operating time, which further increases productivity. The customer is completely satisfied and, together with Blickle, was able to realize not only a more ergonomic, but also a more economical solution.
