Unlock the Benefits of a Weld Positioner

An ALM Positioner can elevate your workshop operations, ensuring a significant return on investment (ROI), enhanced safety, customisability, versatility, and improved ergonomics.

ROI and Increased Productivity

They deliver improved productivity and efficiency. Operators can handle and rotate parts safely, saving labour hours and boosting productivity. Quick, one-touch automated positioning reduces setup time and streamlines training for new employees. Expect a production throughput increase of up to 30%, with most customers achieving ROI in less than a year.

Safety First

Eliminating hazards associated with manual handling, rigging slings, chains, or forklifts, they secure the lifting and rotation of parts, removing the need for employees to work at heights or in precarious positions. ALM’s range is structurally designed with a 3:1 safety factor, ensuring your staff’s safety while working with heavy components.

Customisable

The standard range of sizes and capacities meet most manufacturing needs. However, custom solutions can be tailored to your specific requirements. Whether you need minor customisations or a completely bespoke solution, Leussink and ALM will work with your team to provide an ideal solution.

Versatility

An ALM Positioner is modular and can easily be reconfigured to adapt to your shifting business needs. When your work changes, your positioner is re-deployable with it, avoiding the need for a new purchase. Whether it’s transitioning from automation-ready to programmable or integrating with a robot, you can maximise your investment.

Ergonomics and Workforce Well-being

Improving ergonomics and accessibility reduces workforce fatigue, enabling more focused and efficient work. Enhanced ergonomics can also attract and retain skilled employees, ensuring employees can work comfortably, confidently, and safely, eliminating the need to climb ladders or work in awkward positions. Leussink and ALM work closely with you to ensure your positioner meets specific ergonomic requirements, protecting your workforce from injuries.
