ErgoMove operating concepts
It's simple. It just works.
Safe handling and intuitive operation - this is what characterizes the sophisticated ErgoMove operating concepts. They were developed in collaboration with renowned universities such as the University of Stuttgart, Saarland University and Heilbronn University. High-quality materials and components ensure robustness and guarantee trouble-free operation. All operating concepts can be easily adapted to existing machines and devices.
- A cockpit that summarizes all important functions and information for the user
- Control elements that enable optimum ergonomic use and intuitive operation
- A control unit which, together with the ErgoMove software, is the control center for ErgoMove
- A rechargeable battery unit consisting of tried and tested industrial batteries
The security
A comprehensive safety concept in accordance with DIN EN ISO 3691-5 for pedestrian-controlled industrial trucks industrial trucks ensures that accident risks are minimized:
Compact operating concept
For the ErgoMove 500 and ErgoBoost series
This operating concept is characterized by its particularly compact design and can therefore be easily integrated into existing devices and machines.
- Intuitive driving and steering thanks to integrated force sensors
- Button for differential lock when driving straight ahead
- Available in different lengths
- Forward and reverse speed 5 km/h
- Automatic detection of one/two-hand operation
- Only available for ErgoMove 500
- Simple and precise operation
- Ideal for longer straight runs, rail applications or applications with insufficient stability of the trolley for the sensor handle
- Available as left or right handle variant
- Speeds: ErgoMove 500: forwards and backwards 5 km/h; ErgoBoost: forwards and backwards 3 km/h
Supply unit
- Battery holder and 2 exchangeable batteries (18 V, 5.2 Ah) included in the scope of delivery
- Basic Box variant: Battery disconnect switch for interrupting the power supply
- Safety Box variant: Emergency stop in accordance with the Machinery Directive and key switch for enabling operation
- The ErgoBoost series is powered by a single rechargeable battery connected to a battery holder
Basic Box 
Safety Box Mounting instructions
- Sensor handle and rotary encoder variant: Pre-assembled cables (3 m each) to the drive rollers and the cockpit
- Sensor handle variant: Optionally available without pre-mounted bracket
- Rotary encoder variant: screw-on plate for mounting (clamps for tube mounting optionally available)
Ergonomic cockpit operating concept
For the ErgoMove 1000, 1000T and 2000P series
This operating concept is characterized by its very comprehensive safety technology and intuitive operation, enabling maximum ease of use.
- Particularly intuitive operation thanks to integrated force sensors
- The slightest force exerted by the operator on the cockpit is detected and transmitted to the drive rollers
- Steering assistance in one- or two-handed operation
- Automatic detection of one/two-hand operation
- Operation via rotary encoder
- Precise maneuvering in two-handed mode, straight-ahead travel in one-handed mode
- Ideal for longer straight runs and rail applications
- Automatic detection of one/two-hand operation
- Plug-in cockpit unit (EM-EG-SM) with the option of operating several trolleys with just one cockpit
- High-quality plug connection with locking bracket on the plug adapter (including plastic cover)
- Reduction of ErgoMove investment costs by using one cockpit for several trolley frames (cost advantage from 3 systems)
- Optionally available as a variant with two rotary encoders (EM-2FG-SM)
Integrated into the cockpit:
- Control unit and two rechargeable batteries (18 V, 5.2 Ah)
- Pre-assembled cables (3 m each) to the drive rollers
- Anti-trap protection via force sensors or mushroom push-buttons
Installation instructions
- Ergonomic cockpit variant with force sensors: mounting by means of a screw connection directly on the application or by means of a central adapter tube on the trolley (optionally available)
- Ergonomic cockpit variant with two rotary encoders: mounting on existing trolley tubes using clamps
Flex operating concept
For the ErgoMove 2000, 2000T and 4000 series
This operating concept is characterized by its high robustness and high mechanical customizability and can therefore also be used flexibly in very special applications.
- Simple operation (without steering assistance)
- Ideal for longer straight runs and rail applications
- Operating mode I: EM2000: forwards 2 km/h – backwards 2 km/h
- Operating mode II: EM2000: forwards 4 km/h – backwards 2 km/h
- Simple operation including steering support
- Small turning radius due to differential control
- One- or two-hand operation selectable
- Operating mode I: Motors are controlled synchronously EM2000: forwards 4 km/h – backwards 2 km/h EM4000: forwards 2 km/h – backwards 1 km/h
- Operating mode II: Motors are controlled individually (precise maneuvering) EM2000: forwards and backwards 2 km/h; EM4000: forwards and backwards 1 km/h
- Wired cockpit for challenging visual conditions
- Enables a better view of the application and the route while driving
- Carrying strap for better handling of the cockpit (on request)
- Operating mode I: Motors are controlled synchronously EM4000: forwards 2 km/h – backwards 1 km/h
- Operating mode II: Motors are controlled individually (precise maneuvering) EM4000: forwards and backwards 1 km/h
- Only available for ErgoMove 4000
Supply unit:
- Integrated control and battery unit
- Li-ion battery, 21 Ah, 25 V
- Dimensions: 300 x 630 x 120 mm
- Optionally available with exchangeable battery box
Installation instructions:
- Flex-Cockpit variant with 1 or 2 rotary encoders: mounting via clamps for tube diameters 33-36 mm; including cables to the control box (3 m)
