Vertical Roller Servo Arms

Knight KSHVAR Overhead Carriage Mounted and KSHVAAR Floor Mounted Vertical Roller Servo Arms are Intelligent Assist Device (IAD) that enable an operator to reach outside the area directly below a rail system and to precisely locate or float loads in the “Z” direction (vertical axis) with speed and reliability. The vertical roller servo arms allow for a non-linear overhead varied reach within a work cell or station.

Knight’s Servo Hoist technology becomes an extension of an operator’s natural movements and greatly improves accuracy, responsiveness and repeatability; which increases overall safety, productivity and quality. The inherent benefits include: eliminating wasted motions, reduced reaction times, and minimal effects of inertia with heavy loads.
