Ergonomic solution to bottlenecks October 1st 2007 Operating at a belt speed of
1m/sec, a Caljan FastTrack
telescopic conveyor can
supply two operators,
working in unison, with a
steady influx of parcels.
Optimal working conditions
are ensured by an ergonomic
and safe design.
The company says that
installing Caljan FastTrack in
a new terminal building
means that you can manage
target capacity with fewer
doors. The building budget
can be reduced for each door
you save.
Incorporating the system
into in-feed lines is said to
enable capacity to be
increased in existing
terminals too. The number of
conveyors installed can be
reduced if Caljan FastTrack is
fitted on a rail carriage. It
can then service several
doors by moving parallel to
the loading bay. With an
extendibility of 15.3m, the
telescopic conveyor can
reach into all standard
trucks, ensuring that the
loading process is
ergonomic, as well as
efficient. A steel side plate
enables the operator to turn
while the parcel is supported
by the conveyor, avoiding
lifting and rotating
simultaneously. More articles from Caljan Rite-Hite Ltd: |
