Improved storage density October 1st 2007 Five Aisle-Master articulated
forklifts are keeping
operations rolling at West
Midlands-based Protec
Direct, distributor of PPE,
work and leisure wear.
By exploiting the
articulated design and
capabilities of the 1 LPG and
4 electric powered trucks to
work in narrower aisles and
tighter confines than the
trucks previously used at the
site, Protec Direct has been
able to replace bulk racking
with space efficient pallet
racking, creating extra
picking locations.
This has improved storage
density by 20% and has
created more than 700 extra
pallet positions. In turn,
this has enabled the
provision of more internal
storage space. The outlay on
rent for additional storage
space has also been saved.
The Aisle-Master range
can work in aisles of 1.75m,
with capacities to 2.5t and
lift heights of up to 12.5m. More articles from Aisle-Master Ltd: |
