Beck Maschinenbau GmbH
Man is not made for lifting heavy loads or for working bent over.
However, a look at the production and assembly halls shows that there are still innumerable workplaces in our automated and optimised society that demand too much of those working there.
This mostly leads to diseases of and damage to the spine and the musculoskeletal system that result from this.
Absences or sick leave days are the consequence. Those affected often suffer irreparable damage.
Many examples illustrate how this influences the company’s economic efficiency.
Beck Maschinenbau started early on to develop and produce ergonomically optimised work tables.

Ergonomics and economic efficiency
Two terms that are only at odds on first glance
Creating ergonomically correct workplaces usually first means making investments. Investments in the figure, however, improve economic efficiency for a long period of time. Height-adjustable work tables sustainably improve ergonomics and thus quickly contribute to higher productivity and economic efficiency.
Badly adjusted worktable heights in production, assembly and maintenance usually require additional work steps. Back-protecting postures and manual lifting of loads have a negative effect on employee motivation.
In many cases, they lead to long-term diseases of the back or musculoskeletal system, and in the worst case to loss of labour.
Prevention – an economic gain
- On average, 3 minutes per hour can be saved.
- At a working time of 220 days/year, this makes 88 hours.
- Based on an hourly rate of EUR 30, this leads to savings of up to EUR 2640 per year and workplace.
- An ergonomically fitted workplace thus will pay off within as little as one year.
