Safety boost
March 1st 2005

A safer working environment, improved workflow and reduced level of product damage are three key benefits enjoyed by Carter Retail Equipment since Keymas supplied three mezzanines and assisted in developing an assembly line conveyor to handle refrigerated display cabinets.

Keymas proposed a system based on a single 40m long, twin chain powered roller conveyor in the assembly and testing areas below one of the mezzanines.

The chain conveyor sits on the floor and provides a conveying height of just 150mm, while also supporting non-slip surfaced in-fill plates for cleanliness and safety.

An electric test zone was built into the system and has a pneumatically operated lifting device that helps ensure electrical isolation of the display cabinet from the conveyor.

Keymas also designed, built and installed the control system.
