MiniTec has been offering individual, ergonomically optimized workstations for assembly, order picking and other areas for many years. In the age of Industry 4.0, ergonomics also includes IT innovations that benefit the worker in everyday life and support him in his work - such as MiniTec SmartAssist, the worker assistance system from MiniTec. This provides employees with a wide range of interactive support options.

The system, developed by MiniTec Smart Solutions, significantly reduces training time and ensures a noticeable increase in productivity. The error rate is reduced and quality is improved. In times of shortage of skilled workers, it offers the possibility of integrating untrained personnel into the assembly process.

Employees with handicaps are also given the opportunity to participate in working life again. In addition to assembly, the solution can also be put to good use in other areas, such as incoming goods, order picking or shipping.

The innovative approach and comprehensive benefits of MiniTec SmartAssist were also recognized by the IGR Institut für Gesundheit und Ergonomie e.V. (Institute for Health and Ergonomics) from Nuremberg, whose jury has now awarded MiniTec the „Innovation Award for Ergonomics 2023“. For the company, this is a gratifying confirmation from an external source that the system is designed to be extremely practical and offers the user particular advantages, especially in terms of ergonomics.
