Construction curtain wall, doors and windows and other building decoration industry competition is fierce, in order to enhance corporate efficiency, reduce the cost of logistics link expenditure, each enterprise for long material goods warehousing efficiency, transportation efficiency requirements have also increased.
NO.1 Project Background
The customer specializes in the design, production and installation of architectural curtain wall, aluminum alloy doors and windows, and its products are widely used in many fields such as residential buildings, commercial complexes and office buildings. Door and window curtain wall products and raw materials are generally characterized by large length and heavy weight, and the traditional storage and transportation mode is difficult to meet the customer's needs.
NO.2 Project challenges01
01 Insufficient storage space
Previously, the long materials are mainly stacked on the ground, and the profiles of various specifications are placed in a chaotic manner, taking up a lot of ground space, and the utilization rate of storage is low;
02 Difficulty in handling and safety hazards
Materials are mostly long, heavy and easy to tip over during transportation, which not only affects product quality and production rhythm, but also may cause personal damage;
03 Transportation inefficiencies
Raw materials and finished products need to be frequently transferred between the warehouse - production line - warehouse, the customer originally used a forward forklift for transfer, insufficient flexibility, low efficiency of logistics flow.
NO.3 Advantages of Zowell Solutions
After a site visit, Zowell Intelligent Forklifts customized a narrow aisle logistics solution for the customer based on the warehouse height and customer's development plan - multi-directional forklift + cantilever beam racking. Considering the different lengths and specifications of the aluminum profiles, it is recommended that the customer change the standard forks of the multi-directional forklift into four forks to better adapt to the long material transport in the factory.
---Narrow aisle racking with a height of 7m and racking arrangement layout with an aisle width of 3m has increased the amount of storage space by nearly 40% for the customer on the basis of the unchanged space in the original warehouse; Multi directional forklift needs only 2300mm for the narrowest sidewalk channel, and the maximum lifting height is 10.5m, which can cooperate with narrow aisle shelves to realize high and dense storage of aluminum profiles, and effectively solve the problem of insufficient storage space.
---Multi directional forklift trucks have a maximum load of 3 tons, the front wheel structure adopts the riding type design, through the two sides of the support plate and the axle joint force, loaded driving body stability, can greatly reduce the degree of cargo shaking; Combined with the customized four forks, it can adapt to different lengths of aluminum profiles, better dispersing the weight of the goods, making the transportation more stable, effectively reducing the chances of aluminum profiles tipping over and damaging, and improving the safety of the factory.
---Zowell multi directional forklift adopts three independent steering controllers, with six driving modes such as sideways, tilting, and in-situ slewing quickly switched at the touch of a button, and is able to adapt to all kinds of complex working conditions through rotary direction change, and can easily complete the transfer and stacking of aluminum profiles within a length of 10m in narrow spaces and passages, so that the logistic efficiency of the customers in the production, warehousing, and distribution processes can be significantly improved.
