i) Dock Leveler
It is used at loading dock to compensate for height differences between a truck bed and the dock.
ii) Parts Feeder
It is used for feeding and orienting small identical parts, particularly in assembly operations. Motion of parts in a random pile channeled so that each part automatically assumes a specified orientation, where the symmetries of a part define its possible orientations. Motion can be imparted through vibration, gravity, centrifugal force, tumbling, or air pressure.
iii) Balancer
It is a mechanism used to support and control loads so that operator needs only to guide a balanced load, thus providing precision positioning.
