About this document
Evaluation of Handle Diameters and Orientations by Dylan Swanson is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The study evaluates the impact of handle diameter (25-50 mm) and orientation (horizontal and vertical) on torque, finger force, muscle efficiency, and comfort in a maximum torque task. Results indicate that larger handle diameters (45-50 mm) yield higher maximum torque and comfort ratings, particularly for males and females with specific hand sizes. The findings aim to inform ergonomic design for tools and workstations to enhance performance and reduce injury risk.
