Industrial Manipulators and load handling solutions
Industrial Manipulators and load handling solutions
The most complete range of industrial manipulators nowadays on the market.
It comprises:
- Intelligent Devices for Handling INDEVA® of the Liftronic® Series featuring advanced electronic control technology
- Traditional industrial manipulators of the PN Series featuring pneumatic control technology
Advantages of Liftronic®Series INDEVAs vs.traditional industrial pneumatic manipulators.

Liftronic® Series (Electronic)
Intelligent Devices for Handling INDEVA® of the Liftronic® Series featuring advanced electronic control technology

PN Series (Pneumatic)
Traditional industrial manipulators of the PN Series featuring pneumatic control technology.
Main features
Intelligent devices for handling
True evolution of traditional industrial manipulators. High degree of safety and reliability.
Traditional industrial manipulatos
Suitable for enviroments with danger of explosion, classified classes 1, 2, 21 and 22. ATEX regulations.
Control
Electronic
Pneumatic
Auto weight sense
Automatic weight sensing in real time
No weight sensing
Auto balancing
Automatic weight balancing in real timeallowing variable weights to be handled without presetting load.
Weight balancing is not automatic or real time. Pre-sets weights via selector switch.
Responsiveness
Moves as fast or as slow as the operator decides, using fingertip control with minimal effort and instant response
System response is slower and feels heavier because of this, especially with upward movement
Load Placement
Precise and coordinated, with fine adjustment allowing accurate placement, so reducing the risk of damage
Some resistance is felt as air enters and leaves the cylinders, so restricting natural speed of movement
Industry 4.0 ready
Liftronic® Series manipulators can be interconnected with customer IT system and other machines of the line. They are industry 4.0 ready.
PN Series manipulators cannot be interconnected, thus are not industry 4.0 ready
Carbon footprint & total cost of operation
Lower
Higher
Maneuverability
Light and compact structure allows great visibility and ease of maneuverability
System requires heavier and bulkier structure, so reducing visibility and maneuverability
Diagnostic & remote trouble shooting
Comprehensive auto – diagnostic software e and remote trouble shooting with App-Indeva or INDEVA® Gateway
Not available
Man / machine interface
Simple and efficient: by means of display
Restricted options to identify faults at the machine

Scaglia Indeva® distinguish themselves from the other manufacturers of industrial manipulators
because of their Intelligent Devices for Handling or INDEVA® (Liftronic® Series) . The INDEVA® are an evolution of the industrial manipulators and feature cutting edge electronic control.
Scaglia Indeva®’s range includes also traditional pneumatic industrial manipulators (PN Series), featuring pneumatic control. in order to satisfy special demands and suit applications in controlled environment with danger of explosion, according to the ATEX Regulations.
The industrial manipulator range by Scaglia Indeva® is indeed today the most complete on the market
for lift assist devices and it is able to satisfy industry growing demand for higher productivity combined with safety and ergonomics in load manual handling.
Design and manufacturing of manual load manual handling solutions that improve safety and ergonomics.
Scaglia Indeva® was the first company in the world to apply electronics to the industrial manipulators. Since 1970 we’ve been world leader for the production of INtelligent DEVices for hAndling with our exclusive “INDEVA® ”. An INDEVA®, now synonymous with evoluted Ergonomic Industrial Manipulator, enables operators to lift and manoeuvre loads naturally, as if it were a human arm extension. An INDEVA® contributes to productivity increase and helps reduce the costs of product damage and minimize work-related injuries. For manual handling of high value products, in handling cycles requiring rapid, repetitive movements, an INDEVA® is the safest and most productive lifting device available nowadays, as it gives the responsiveness and flexibility of a human operator plus the power of a machine; it is therefore the perfect solution for quick, repetitive motions and slow, precise load placements.
