A recent survey found that overexertion was the most serious workplace injury in the United States in 2021. Falls and being struck by an item were second and third, respectively.
The four dimensions of material handling have an impact on efficient product flow through your warehouse. They are Movement, Time Quantity, Space, and Quantity
This is where GSS Machinery comes in. At GSS Machinery, we provide the most advanced automated storage and retrieval systems to increase productivity and accuracy throughout your warehouse.
The triplex-chain conveyor and the popup tables with roll beds are based on our standards.
Conveyors and cross transfer handlers offer a 90-degree transfer of loads and materials in the shortest possible time. It is well equipped and flexible to use the vertical lift and transfer mechanisms stimulated by pneumatic, hydraulic and electrical systems.
Primarily, cross transfer /cross transport handlers and conveyors offer mechanized loading, discharging, and collection of material to be used on roller conveyors. These machines allow for a constant flow in materials between processing units. This leads to increased productivity.
There are two options: pop up roller transfers and chain transfers. The overall design of the system will determine which transfer you should include. The pop-up transfer has the advantage of allowing loads to be transported with continuous chain support through a roller conveyor chainbox.
Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. has a range of cross transfer / cross transportation handlers that can be tailored to your needs. These machines are robust and well-engineered to transfer loads efficiently.
Material handling refers to the movement, storage and control of materials, goods, and products during the manufacturing, distribution, consumption, disposal, and recycling processes. Material handling is responsible for the manufacturing and distribution of equipment and services necessary to create material handling system. These systems include pallet racks, shelving, conveyors, and automated systems.
Material handling involves more than just the inventory management. It involves the movement, protection and storage of materials and products during their entire lifecycle, from manufacturing to disposal. Material handling is a collection of components that help keep the supply chain running smoothly. You can choose from a range of equipment (manual, semi-automated or automated) as well systems (single level storage, multi-level stock, conveyors, etc. ).
An automated material handling system can have issues with poor pallet quality. While it can help reduce poor pallet quality issues, locating rollers closer together may not be the best option. However, tighter centers on rollers will limit space available for chain transfer. IK has created a chain transfer to carry 4,000-pound loads. This is made using a 3/8” plate welded steel frame that allows for 2-1/2” diameter rollers with 4-1/2” centers. This transfer features a chain take-up design which can be adjusted without the need for conveyor disassembly.
