Flexible handling
January 1st 2008 To ensure that loads are put away
and picked as time and cost
efficiently as possible, HGS uses a
fleet of electric-powered Flexi G4
articulated trucks from Narrow
Aisle. HGS managing director
Tony Sando has always been an
advocate of the articulated truck
concept and, this year, when the
expansion of one of HGS's blue
chip contracts meant the company
needed to increase the size of its
fleet, he ordered four new Flexi
G4s.The Flexi loads and unload
lorries and delivers pallets directly
to the racking in a single operation.
This abolishes double handling
and the costs associated with
running a bigger truck fleet than is
necessary. The Flexi is suited to
working in narrower aisles
alongside order picking staff, and
when required, low level order
picking can be undertaken at the
site easily and safely. More articles from Narrow Aisle Limited: |
