Duckbill is a world leader in engineered Single Platform:
Many Modules (SPMM) concepts. These are task-specific,
mostly upper-body, ergonomically-sound personal carrying
solutions that can be equipped with an array of customized
modules for carrying and positioning (or repositioning)
interchangeable hand tool, instrument and device modules.
The Duckbill
SPMM EC product
is a professional grade, rugged and ergonomically sound
tool carrying platform specifically designed with the electrical
contractor in mind. It integrates AXIAlign
and Power
Zone Design(PZD) principles to keep
the user as erect as possible throughout the work day and
reduce the number of bending, twisting, lifting and shearing
events. Uninformed, casual or sloppy tool weight allocation
leads to unnecessary neck, shoulder, back, hip and knee
pain or Muscular Skeletal Disorders (MSD's) and eventually
to premature personal health and enterprise productivity
gaps.
We
spoke to the electrical contractors out in the field.
They told us that they
are constantly using a cordless drill and other heavier
tools. So we developed suspenders
with a third support strut to support that extra weight.
Duckbill also developed modules specifically designed for
the electrical contractor like the HawkNose
drill module. A perfectly balanced
device that sits on the back of the suspenders to hold a
drill. Saddlebags
were designed with interchangeable pockets to hold the many
wire nuts, fasteners, and other small items frequently used.
A module was developed with an extra pocket to hold drill
bits. And the list goes on.

The
user positions (or repositions) the tools and instruments
(weight) where on the platform he chooses to carry and/or
access them. In this way he allocates the load to match
its use with his need (ergonomics) and distributes the weight
comfortably over an expanded portion of his or her (typically
upper-body) muscular skeletal structure. The more muscles
and bones that share in the work, the less any of them are
overstressed or damanged.
Duckbill's
unmatched capacity to rapidly translate the personal productivity
requirements of industrial tool, device and instrument users/carriers
into innovative and interchangeable ergonomic solutions
has led to its best-in-class SPMM EC strategies.
Duckbill's
proprietary AXIAlign and PZD principles and
numerous inventions also make Duckbill an essential development
partner and supplier seeking to advance the state of the
art in personal productivity
