When injection moulding
manufacturer, McKechnie Plastic
Components, introduced tooling
weighing up to 12,000kg with a
footprint of 2m2, a new handling
solution was needed to move the
new equipment and existing
medium sized tools between the
production area and tool room.
Following detailed discussions with the ROBUR technical team and Stanley Handling, a dedicated specification that would suit all McKechnie's tool sizes and permit access around the site's narrow gangways and restricted spaces was drawn up. The 12,000kg powered pallet truck was designed, manufactured and delivered in sixteen weeks.
