Superior material handling critical and in-demand equipment

What are the future trends and latest developments in the material handling sector?

Automation of MHE is the contemporary development going on in MHE as properly as the use of greater & extra of VNA (Very Narrow Aisle Trucks) making use of greater heights up to 17 meters in order to have more storage ability in much less space. The K man-up turret truck from Linde Material Handling enables high turnaround capacity for order picking and handling processes in high rack warehouses. The powerful drive trains make this possible, as the truck can move and lift at the same time. Also, even at high lift levels the speed remains high and a high level of residual lift capacity is available. Various assistance systems are available which help to navigate accurately through warehouse or to avoid obstacles. 

ASRS (Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems) too is in demand throughout many segments of the industry. Although these systems were initially intended for heavy-pallet loads, technological developments have made it possible for them to handle much smaller loads, increasing efficiency and allowing for higher warehouse storage densities.

Why is modern material handling equipment (MHE) so critical for increasing efficiency and reducing downtime?

I won't say its modern, but high-performance material handling equipment is essential because of higher throughput per hour and more reliable because it requires less maintenance and uptime of more than 95%. In a nutshell, it is a long-term consumer advantage.

Kindly inform us about the types of machinery/equipment your organisation offers.

To fulfil the appropriate application or solution to a client need, Linde manufactures more than 141 variants of MHE. One of them is counterbalanced forklift trucks. The new counterbalanced forklift trucks provide a singular blend of flexibility and long-term dependability. They are built on a cutting-edge technological foundation that works with all types of energy systems, performing just as well with high-performance electric drives powered by lead-acid batteries, lithium-ion batteries, or fuel cells as they do with diesel and gas combustion engines.  

With respect to automated material handling equipment solutions, how advantageous is it in enhancing productivity especially in warehousing and logistics?

Due to non-involvement of human intervention errors are eliminated, over & above due to automation the consistency of thru put is achieved to 100% as per system design.

Could you detail about innovative technologies that have come up recently?

Scalable and cost-efficient automation is a critical element of an optimal material flow. Automated procedures ensure consistent, efficient, and flexible processes. They improve your goods handling times and help minimize personal injury and damage to goods and infrastructure. We provide automated trucks, the latest technology, and a comprehensive material flow consulting service to help you fully exploit your economic potential. From delivery through to dispatch, we use our comprehensive understanding of intralogistics to analyze individual process steps or entire material flows.

Demand of more & more safety features in the equipment has increased. Safety in the warehouse or production environment is the number one priority in intralogistics. With ever-increasing demands on material handling these days, it is essential to have reliable measures in place to protect drivers and employees, as well as the goods being transported, the shelves and any other equipment.
