TDA Buddy Announces Record Growth in Sales

TDA Buddy, a manufacturer of pneumatic and hydraulic manipulators, custom end effectors, and other industrial lift-assist machinery servicing a variety of industries, has announced a record year in both sales and new customer acquisition.

"In the past year, TDA Buddy achieved sales increase of 38% over the previous year and an astounding growth over previous years in new customer relationships," said a company spokesperson.

Founded in 1985, TDA Buddy has continued a long tradition of continuous development in the manufacture of manipulators and other gripping and lifting solutions. To date, the company has over 3,500 installations of its manipulators across every industrial segment.

The ergonomic manipulators grip, flip, pitch and spin parts and accurately place them for the next manufacturing operation. The pneumatic neutral balancing manipulators are designed to hold and maneuver parts rigidly in three dimensions. They automatically make the part being manipulated "weightless" so that an associate can move the part effortlessly.

Applications for the manipulators include press load/unload, machine loading, conveyor load/unload and packaging, to name a few. There is no electrical power required to operate a TDA Buddy pneumatic manipulator and its modular design allows for easy re-tooling. Hydraulic-powered manipulators are available should a heavier lift application require it.
