One unit for loading, storing & picking May 1st 2009 Dublin based Plant and
Electrical is reported to have
achieved a 50% increase in
storage space by using a
versatile Aisle-Master
articulated forklift.
The company previously
used a combination of reach
and counterbalance forklifts
to handle its range of
electrical supplies, cabling,
and PPE equipment.When
growth of the business
triggered a move to new
premises, the company was
keen to find a more versatile
handling system, preferably
using just one forklift for all
offloading, storing and
picking procedures.
The Aisle-Master works
both inside and out and is
fitted with super elastic tyres,
so copes easily with any
uneven surfaces around the
premises. It is also a much
speedier alternative to the old
system where each truck was
confined to one particular
area; the electric reach truck
was limited to indoor use,
whereas the diesel
counterbalance was used for
offloading in the yard. The
Aisle-Master now allows
direct truck to rack
transportation, with no
double handling of pallets. More articles from Aisle-Master Ltd: |
