Lifting and loading systems play an important role in material handling by improving productivity and enhancing workplace safety. Motorized hoists provide an efficient solution for lifting heavy loads while significantly reducing manual labor and physical strain on workers. However, traditional manual lifting methods are time-consuming, physically demanding, and prone to safety risks such as improper load handling and workplace injuries. To address these challenges, a motorized hoist–based lifting and loading system was designed to ensure smoother operation, better load stability, and improved efficiency. Then, the researchers tested and analyzed the system in terms of timeliness and functional efficiency based on hypothesis testing techniques.Test results show that the machine is much slower than manual lifting but as we conducted an interview among workers they said that time isn’t the problem, Its how many injuries they experienced to lift a billboard tarpaulin. This system enables controlled lifting and positioning of loads, minimizing human effort and reducing the likelihood of accidents. Overall, the use of a motorized hoist benefits both workers and organizations by increasing operational efficiency, promoting safer working conditions, and supporting more sustainable material-handling practices.
