Space-saving
March 1st 2009 Troax's modular steel partitioning
system, Sabre, has been used to
construct a space-saving storage
facility for vehicle parts. The
enclosure at BMW Group Plant
Swindon has been designed to fit
around an intricate layout of
production and maintenance
equipment already in place at the
plant, maximising the use of the
available space.
As well as housing complex press
lines and sub-assembly facilities,
Swindon also manages the logistics
of deliveries of MINI components to
Plant Oxford. To create sufficient
storage for the palletised MINI
vehicle parts, Troax's modular, single
skin, steel partitioning was used to
build a 4000m2 enclosure, which
'snakes' around existing assembly
equipment to maximise the use of
space on the factory floor. More articles from Troax (UK) Limited: |
