Where this applies in food and beverages

Low-frequency zones & cadence

  • Pallets, low bins, knee-level sockets.
  • Frequent bending in cycling, especially when rolling.

Line preparation & feeding

  • Picking, assembly, repeated pick-up and drop-off.
  • Variable heights, precision, limited space.

Shipping & Receiving

  • Loading, unloading, sorting, depalletizing.
  • Variability of formats, urgency, co-activity.

Operations

Operations: maintain pace at critical workstations

When lumbar flexion returns at each quarter, the end of the quarter is often the real test.
UPLIFT Lite helps on targeted positions to support effort and stabilize cadence.

  • Rapid deployment across 1 to 3 workstations (without major reconfiguration)

  • Assistance with repetitive tasks at varying levels (where human interaction remains essential)

  • Success = the right workstation + actual wear time throughout the shift

OHS

ERGONOMICS

OHS: REDUCE EXPOSURE TO LUMBAR LOADS

Target 1 to 3 positions where lumbar flexion is frequent, identify the right candidates and measure the benefits.
UPLIFT Lite supports the back during repeated bending, when human strength is essential.
