Design, Fabrication, and Evaluation of an Innovative Mechanical Lifter

Author(s) Mr. Kenneth Gazo Magabo
Country Philippines
Abstract This study developed, fabricated, and evaluated an innovative mechanical lifter designed for the removal and installation of transmissions and differentials in automotive repair shops, particularly small facilities where space, portability, and versatility are critical. Unlike conventional manual lifters, the device was designed with a more stable, compact, and user-oriented configuration to address common operational limitations. Constructed from mild steel and equipped with a scissor-type lifting mechanism, the lifter showed a theoretical load capacity of about 4,000 kg; however, actual testing indicated a practical limit of approximately 600 kg due to the current caster wheel specification. Despite this constraint, structural analysis confirmed its stability and compliance with essential safety requirements. Performance evaluation showed consistently high ratings for effectiveness, efficiency, perceived ease of use, user experience, reliability, maintainability, and safety, with weighted mean scores ranging from 4.36 to 4.54, all interpreted as strongly agree. Respondents described the device as easy to operate, maneuverable, durable, and low in maintenance demand, and they noted its potential to reduce operator fatigue during lifting tasks. The findings suggest that the lifter is a compact, stable, and practical solution that can improve productivity and ergonomic safety in automotive servicing, with caster wheel upgrading recommended to maximize its full load capacity.
