Protect Industrial Employees from Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

The human body is a well-crafted machine but as wonderful as it is, it has its limits. For tasks that cannot be completed with human power alone, we use machines. It is best for you and your employees if you provide them with machines that act as extensions, working with the human body rather than causing the human form to overexert itself.

At DJ Products our mission is to provide solutions for material handling situations that are ergonomically correct, safe and cost effective. We manufacture machines that eliminate the strains and pains of manually pushing or pulling heavy carts, equipment, or materials.

Some of the wheeled carts that are used in a number of industries are quite heavy and allowing your employees to push these carts on their own may be putting them at risk. For example, our CartCaddyHD cart mover can push or pull heavy material handling carts up to 50,000 lbs.

Not only would such a cart be quite heavy, the necessity of moving it through a warehouse setting requires the kind of twisting and moving that could cause musculoskeletal injury. When attached to the swivel caster, a material handling solution like the CartCaddyHD dolly mover provides the pushing and pulling power that your employees need to turn carts smoothly and with ease.

The CartCaddyHD is just one of our many material handling solutions that offers a variable speed twist grip, allowing an operator to move the cart forwards and backwards at between 0-3 mph, while also protecting the operator from getting carpal tunnel syndrome.
