Swedish term or phrase: momentupptagande
Hello

I have

Elektrisk Mechlift Pro är en ergonomiskt utformad ***momentupptagande*** lyftenhet som enkelt anpassas till många typer av hanteringslösningar

where "momentupptagande" has already been translated as "Moment Absorbing Lifting Manipulator"

https://www.materialshandling.com.au/products/mechlift-momen...

I find the same or similar translations on a few other sites. I was sure these are wrong and thought about "torque absorbing" instead but there is no evidence for this on the Internet.

Does anyone know how to translate momentupptagande please?

Thanks

(Okay these are guesses. However, "moment" usually means "torque".

I do not think it means "torque-absorbing" or "torque-tolerant". However, you never know what kind of a technical problem a user may face that needs to be solved.
