Saves floorspace, increases shop-floor productivity
September 1st 2007

Powerscreen International has taken delivery of its first Nu-Star Super Pusher at its manufacturing facility in Dungannon, Northern Ireland in addition to the existing two Power Pushers in use on the site. As a result the floor space required for screen box assembly has been reduced by 664m2, this has been used to increase production. The Super Pusher is more manoeuvrable and requires much less aisle way and turning circle space compared to fork lifts or full sized ride-on tugs. It can be kept available in the area and used to move the screen boxes through the assembly area and outside for transport to final assembly.

The Nu-Star Pusher and Super Pusher combined with carrier bogies are a safe and efficient means of moving major components through sub and final assembly processes. They require less floor space than fork lift trucks, and are more flexible than cranes.
