How can Tawi lifting solutions enhance pharmaceutical manufacturing?

As a primary transition point for materials coming from a warehouse and entering the processing area, the weigh room will have a significant impact on the overall production process in pharmaceutical manufacturing. Choosing the best equipment, layout and operation in the weighing room can provide a strong starting point for an efficient manufacturing process. Tawi stainless-steel Vacuum Tools can handle anything from flour bags to drums. These tools ensure safe grip without damaging the goods and allow the operator to work alone and lift freely without straining their body. The vacuum lifters can be used to lift and empty ingredients on a platform floor scale and then move the product from the scale onto a pallet to transport to the processing area.
