Automotive assembly (engines, gearboxes, chassis parts)
Heavy equipment manufacturing
Tool and die replacement
Oil and gas sector (valves, drilling components, etc.)
Repetitive lifting tasks
Parts assembly
Machining
Maintenance of treatment equipment
Coverage of larger single workspaces

State-of-the-art control technology

G-Force® now uses the very latest processor to bring you the most advanced features on the intelligent lifting market. Our state-of-the-art units are available in two models: our basic model, the Q2, with intelligent functions for most applications, and our enhanced model, the iQ2, which offers even more configuration options with electrical control input/output (I/O) points at the handle and actuator.

The updated computer user interface makes configuration easy.
Thanks to a greater number of customizable handle-based I/O options, the less expensive Q2 model can handle a wider range of simple applications.
With user-configurable I/O on the iQ2 model, the need for potentially costly custom programming is reduced.
Integrated wireless connectivity via WiFi and wired functionality: no need to plug in cables for maintenance, troubleshooting or diagnostics.
Handle and display interfaces are now available in 6 languages: English, French, German, Italian, Mandarin and Spanish.

Connection

G-LINK SMART CONNECT

Technology continues to transform the world of manufacturing at an exhilarating pace. By facilitating communication between devices at plant level and over the Internet, we benefit from unprecedented access to the data we need to improve every aspect of production and maintenance.
This desire to be connected led us to design our new Q2 and iQ2 G-Force® and Easy Arm® units with G-Link Smart Connect. G-Link Smart Connect solutions will enable G-Force® and Easy Arm® units to transmitdata locally or to any site with Internet access. Users will be able to set parameters and view essential data remotely from their desktop, laptop or tablet.

G-Link overview

Full user access and permission-based access via Gorbel® and cloud-based dashboard for data trending and analysis

Allows Gorbel® to carry out remote troubleshooting operations
Provides a user-friendly cloud-based dashboard so users can monitor all units, set notifications and receive relevant data “at a glance” via various graphs and widgets
The user can view aggregate data, as well as individual data for each unit.
Gorbel® can transmit upgrades and software changes directly to the units.
Allows warning criteria to be defined and made easily available for immediate action

TWO CONNECTIVITY PACKAGES

G-Link

Local network access in addition to Line of Sight

Extends Line of Sight access to the internal network
Allows users to set parameters remotely from a desktop, laptop or tablet computer
Data can be shared with other devices on the network (tooling, conveyors, etc.).
Actions can be triggered on another device or machine depending on what is happening on the G-Force® unit.
Reduces the need for costly custom programming, as users can define many unique parameters themselves

INNOVATIVE HANDLE DESIGN

G 360™ swivel assembly

Our intelligent G-Force® and Easy Arm® lifting devices feature a combined collection/air swivel assembly. It allows the handle to swivel continuously without damaging the electrical wires of the spiral cord or the optional air coil. This is the ideal solution for applications where the operator is constantly turning the handle.

Multilingual handle display

The handle's high-resolution, multilingual OLED display enables menu-driven configuration of features such as Virtual Limits and Speed Reduction Points. It also provides valuable information, such as operating modes, weight display, diagnostic information and error codes.

Operator presence detection function

All G-Force® and Easy Arm® joysticks feature operator presence detection, making them safe and intuitive. This method detects the presence of the operator's hand without having to press a lever. The result is safe, trouble-free operation, as the operator is not tempted to use the Operator Present Sensor safety feature as a simple on/off button.

Ergonomic handle design

The gripping surfaces of our durable handle have been designed with operator comfort in mind. Their shape and size, as well as the material used, have undergone rigorous preparation to ensure that it fits snugly in the hand, while its textured coating guarantees a direct grip.
