Lyngsoe Ergo Bin™: Ergonomic Bulk Transport for Libraries

Sorting, stacking, and moving returned books can place significant physical strain on your employees, requiring them to repeatedly bend and stretch, placing materials back on shelves ready for the next customer.

As experts in intelligent solutions for libraries, we recognized this challenge and developed the Lyngsoe Ergo Bin™ to help, our latest innovation that builds upon the success of our previous product, the Ergo Box.

Discover the Benefits of Lyngsoe Ergo Bin™

Simplifying Bulk Book Handling for Busy Libraries

Many libraries, especially large libraries with lots of visitors, experience the challenge of collecting books and other materials and returning them into circulation. Sorting and stacking large volumes of books and other materials can take its toll on your employees. 

The Ergo Bin is a high-capacity bin that functions autonomously, regardless of whether a library employee is filling or emptying the bin. It has been specifically designed to ensure the correct ergonomic position for your staff, supporting long-term worker health. 

Boost Efficiency and Staff Comfort with Ergo Bin

Not only does the Ergo Bin have a super sleek design, but its floor is electronically controlled, guided by a photo eye sensor or control button. The floor raises as items are restocked on the shelves, reducing the need for your library staff to bend to reach items. This function also minimizes the drop distance from the sorter chute to protect the sorted items from damage. 

Operating the bin is simple and intuitive. It is managed by an intelligent control board, both when the bin is docked and connected to the sorter and when it is disconnected from the sorter module, operating on its own. The user interaction is the same as operating the Lyngsoe Ergo Cart™, which makes it easy for your employees to master if they are already familiar with this product.

Integrate Ergo Bin with Your Book Sorting Setup

The Ergo Bin can also easily be integrated with your automated sorting system. It partners perfectly with Lyngsoe Sort Mate™ 2000, the latest generation in our successful series of dedicated automated sorting technology, installed in hundreds of locations across the world. This can form a reliable building block for your Automated Material Handling system.

As part of our family of products, we also offer the Ergo Cart, which supports reshelving and easy material transportation. Our collection of ergonomic library solutions enables you to choose the right product or products that best meet your library’s needs and resolve your challenges – whether that be with the Ergo Bin, the Ergo Cart or via a hybrid of solutions working seamlessly together to improve your library operations.
