Case Study.


 

 
   

Problem,

 

To handle Euro size pallets in a multi work cell finishing area, where space was at a premium and Fork Lift Truck usage undesirable and difficult.

 

Solution,

 

To install a MovoMech overhead aluminium crane rail system, on to which three 750Kg capacity MechLift handlers were mounted. Each unit being capable of lifting and transferring pallets onto a modular plastic belt conveyor. The conveyor transports the pallets through an automatic wrapping machine and then to a despatch warehouse. The overhead rail system X and Y movements are manual and easily manageable on the low friction rail trolleys. Lift and lowering is via a sensitive toggle lever controlling an inverter powered electric motor.
