Designed for Rolls
April 1st 2006

Arrowhive Equipment has supplied a customconfigured materials handling system to a manufacturer of tapes and decorative products in Glasgow.

The company had been slitting large parent reels of an expensive substrate into smaller, more marketable secondary rolls which were then - using an unloader - turned 90° onto pallets.

Its former processes were considered inefficient and carried with them the risk of operator injury and product damage.

To improve the process, a Schlumpf ERH-500-PT-S (portable reel lifter/turner) was supplied with a customised mandrel and special reel end support.

This enables the handling system to remove the reels directly from the unloader.
