Strut System and Tool Balancers

The strut system allows tools and balancers to be suspended directly above work areas to create
an ergonomically friendly work environment. Solid struts held up by trolley beam supports pro-
vide a track for load trolleys to easily move tools throughout the work area and reducing fatigue
on workers.

AMS offers heavy duty tool balancers that ergonomically help workers to stay on task and tire
less quickly. The balancers allow the worker to move the suspended tool up or down with very
little effort. Depending on the spring adjustment, the tool will remain in position or retract
when no force is applied. With a spiral groove on a tapered drum, the winding radius is increased
to match the torque buildup of the spring, thus neutralizing it and achieving a balanced
condition.
