Switzerland Ergo-tek Micro-Shear Cutters The new Ergo-tek handles for the Ideal-tek Micro-Shears line were designed with a user centered design (UCD) philosophy. Ergo-tek Micro-Shears are designed to maximize productivity while minimizing worker repetitive motion injuries. New Ergo-tek Micro-Shears features: • superior ergonomics • bi-component design • particulate free grip surface New Ergo-tek Micro-Shears benefits: • Ergonomic handle reduces repetitive motion strain • Anti-slip rubber outer surface for improved grip • Perfect stiffness for increased productivity • Easy pick up with or without gloves • Ultimate operator comfort from UCP intelligent design • ESD-safe material ERGO -TEK MICRO-SHEARS Past Present UCD Approach User-Centered Design (UCD) is a design philosophy and a process in which the needs, wants, and limitations of end-users are given extensive attention at each stage of the design process. User-centered design can be characterized as a multi-stage problem solving process that not only requires designers to analyze and foresee how users are likely to use a tool, but also to test the validity of their assumptions with regards to user behaviour in real world tests with actual users. 1.
