Tool for tool handling

When injection moulding manufacturer,McKechnie Plastic Components introduced tooling weighing up to 12,000kg with a footprint of 2m2, a new handling solution was needed to move the new equipment and existing medium sized tools between the production area and tool room.

Following detailed discussions with the ROBUR technical team and Stanley Handling, a dedicated specification that would suit all McKechnie's tool sizes and permit access around the site's narrow gangways and restricted spaces was drawn up. The 12,000kg powered pallet truck was designed, manufactured and delivered in 16 weeks.
