Engineered systems are a collection of units that work together to allow storage and transport. They can be automated. An example is the Automated Storage and Retrieval System. It's a large, automated organization that has racks and shelves. The shuttle system is either a fully-automatic or manual cherry picker that can quickly find a storage item and retrieve it for you.
Material handling is defined as the movement, storage, control and protection of materials, goods and products throughout the process of manufacturing, distribution, consumption and disposal. The material handling industry is responsible for manufacturing and distributing the equipment and services required to create material handling systems. These systems range from pallet rack and shelving to conveyors and automated systems.
Our smart solutions make it possible to operate in multi-order or batch modes. This will increase productivity, but not compromise the fulfillment of larger orders.
Our Vertical Lift Modules, Horizontal Carousels and Order Picking Solutions are designed to optimize space, reduce errors and speed up operations to create a seamless material handling process, from start to finish — more on this below!
There are four major categories of material handling equipment: storage, engineered system, bulk material handling, and industrial trucks.
To avoid costly equipment damage, make sure you invest in quality solutions. Make sure your employees are trained on how to maintain equipment properly.
3. Work: Reducing the amount of work you do by using equipment to automate repetitive tasks.
8. Environment: Make sure you use equipment that is more efficient and less likely to cause greenhouse gas emissions. A liquid-propane powered truck is less sustainable than an electric forklift.
GSS Machinery is easily my favorite vendor. I love their customer service and commitment to completing orders on time. Wonderful communication. A pleasure to work for.
