New Remote Holmatro Cutter Tackles Physical Load

The Dutch Institute of Technology (TNO), Van den Mosselaar Vehicle Recycling and hydraulic specialist Holmatro Industrial Equipment have joined forces to develop the ICU 02 A 40 remote cutter.

The cutter is designed to increase the productivity in cutting and dismantling activities as well as to create an acceptable physical load. The ICU 02 A 40 is suitable for cutting wiring, cables and piping in hard to reach spaces.

It is also an excellent alternative to traditional hand cutters when it comes to activities or production processes involving long hours in the same uncomfortable position, Holmatro says. Vehicle dismantling and white fabrics recycling are just a selection from the wide variety of applications.

In the field of comfort, the user test proved that the model with an extended operation part performed better than the compact version, according to the press release. Car parts which used to be (nearly) out of reach can now be reached without overloading the users’ lower back, Holmatro says. The company adds that the two-hand operation also relieves forces on the wrists and reduces muscle strains.
