Positech’s hydraulic Taurus Positioning Arm (TPA) design emulates the movement of the human arm. This industrial manipulator allows for reaching in and maneuvering over or around work cell obstructions.

When the handling process requires precise positioning of heavy payloads of up to 2,500 pounds, the TPA hydraulic system makes it the ideal choice. Safe, low-voltage, variable speed controls can be hand held, machine mounted or built into ergonomically designed controls.

The TPA is available in four model configurations, providing up to 64 inches of vertical lift and flexible mounting options.
