Spring Balancers provide constant tension on the cable, accomplished with a spring motor and a tapered drum. The balancer extends or retracts the support cable to follow the tool's movements. The assembler can reposition the tool, while experiencing comfortable operation and less fatigue.
How do tool balancers work?
Tool balancers reduce the risk of musculoskeletal injuries in tool operators. This simple mechanism is suspended above your operator's workstation and attached to their tool via a retractable cable. The cable holds the weight of the tool, meaning your operator only has to direct its movement, not support its mass.Jul 2, 2018

How do I choose a tool balancer?
To choose the right balancer or model, you should first determine the height and physical space available to suspend your tool balancer and allow it to rotate and swing freely. The dimensions will determine the maximum work area you have and the ideal length for tool positioning and travel of the cable.Jun 1, 2020
How do I adjust my tool balancer?
Adjust the weight setting of the tool balancer to be suitable with the new tool (device) that will be attached. To increase the tension, turn the “worm” clockwise. To decrease the tension, turn the “worm” counterclockwise. You can judge approximate weight through the gauge.Apr 13, 2017
