ergo rider conveyor
The Caljan ErgoRider is an integrated operator platform and conveyor belt designed to transform how teams load and unload loose-loaded cargo with a Performer telescopic conveyor. Built for high-volume logistics and distribution environments, ErgoRider supports the industry’s goals for better ergonomics, improved operator safety, and increased loading capacity—all in one streamlined solution.

ErgoRider’s distinctive free-hanging design is backed by more than 60 years of parcel-handling expertise and scientific studies focused on the long-term impact of heavy, repetitive lifting. For DockStar customers, that means a smarter, more efficient workflow that helps reduce strain, improve operator comfort, and set a higher standard for productivity and workplace safety at the dock.

Free-Hanging Solution

The Caljan ErgoRider spans the full length of the trailer without floor support, creating a stable working path that isn’t affected by common dock and trailer challenges. By operating independently of the floor, ErgoRider helps eliminate obstacles that can disrupt loading and unloading—such as bumpy terminal floors, uneven dock levellers, obstructions on the trailer floor, and changes in trailer parking position or levelling angle.

For DockStar customers, this means smoother, more predictable operation at the dock door. Operators can maintain a steady pace with fewer interruptions, improving loading efficiency, reducing unnecessary strain, and supporting safer loose-loaded parcel handling across a wide range of trailer conditions.

No Extra Drives, Conveyors, or Integrations

With the Caljan ErgoRider, you can simplify your dock and sortation setup by reducing the need for additional material-handling equipment. There’s no requirement for extra drives on a carriage system, flex-roller integration, or separate takeaway conveyors to move parcels back toward the sorting system—ErgoRider combines these functions in one integrated solution.

For DockStar customers, this consolidation can mean a lower total cost of ownership: fewer components to purchase, fewer systems to service, and less maintenance complexity over time. By streamlining the flow of loose-loaded parcels from trailer to sortation, ErgoRider supports efficient operations while helping reduce equipment spend and long-term upkeep.

Bringing the Belt to the Parcel

With the Express Snoot feature, the Caljan ErgoRider brings the conveyor belt directly to the box for optimal positioning during loading and unloading. This helps reduce lifting distances, minimizes unnecessary reaching, and supports a smoother, more ergonomic workflow—especially in high-volume, loose-loaded parcel environments.

By keeping parcels continuously moving forward and within easy reach, Express Snoot helps operators maintain momentum and improves overall loading productivity. The result is a faster, more consistent process where items stay staged and ready for quick, efficient handling at the trailer.
