Products & Solutions
Handling Systems Engineered for Every Load
Our balancers, manipulators, and lifting axes handle everything from light, fast-cycle parts to heavy assemblies — each one custom-engineered to your parts, cycle, and station.
Our Systems
Four System Families, One Engineering Standard
Balancing
Pneumatic Balancers
Pneumatic cable and chain balancers for fast-cycle pick-and-place handling of tools and components across a wide vertical range.
- Type
- Pneumatic cable or chain balancer
- Best for
- Pick-and-place, no rotation
- Motion
- Wide vertical range
Lifting & Positioning
Lifting Axes
Vertical lifting axes engineered for precise, repeatable positioning in demanding handling stations.
- Type
- Vertical lifting axis
- Best for
- Exact placement, rigid motion
- Motion
- Precise vertical travel
Large-Area Handling
Floor-Guided Systems
Floor-guided carts that cover large work areas with full operator control, for stations where a gantry or a fixed column is not an option.
- Type
- Floor-guided cart
- Best for
- No gantry system or budget
- Motion
- Full operator control
Jointed-Arm Handling
Articulating Arm Devices
Arms with jointed sections, on a column or in a rail system, that carry the load through the work area and reach around obstacles a straight boom has to go around.
- Type
- Articulating arm
- Best for
- High maneuverability
- Motion
- Jointed swing
All four families share the same engineering standard and together cover the full range from light to heavy — the right family depends on your load and motion.
Custom Engineering
Built Around Your Application
We don't sell from a catalog. Every EFS system starts from your specifics — the exact parts, weights, reach, cycle time, and workplace — then it's balanced and configured until it fits your line precisely. The result is a system made for your process, not adapted to it.

FAQ
Common Questions
The essentials on load ranges, choosing a system, and how we work — with a straight answer to each.
What load range do EFS handling systems cover?
From light, fast-cycle parts to heavy assemblies. Every system is balanced to the exact load and cycle it handles, so the fit is matched to your process rather than a fixed catalog size.
How do I choose the right system for my application?
It depends on your load and the type of motion: pneumatic balancers for fast-cycle handling, vertical lifting axes for precise, repeatable positioning, and floor-guided systems for heavy loads across large work areas. Tell us your application and we'll recommend the right system.
Do you provide support after installation?
EFS is a turnkey partner — concept, planning, development, manufacturing, assembly, and maintenance all come from one source, so you have a single point of contact throughout the project.
How quickly will I hear back after an inquiry?
Our engineering team typically responds within one business day. Share your load and application details and we'll get straight to the specifics.
Still have a question we didn't cover? Our engineers are happy to talk specifics.
