One such example is the company’s recent directive to reduce operational costs relating to material handling within their receiving department. Joe Phillips, Director of Operations said, “receiving bulk loaded containers, completely packed with cases of glassware takes several workers a couple hours to palletize. It’s very time consuming and expensive”. This situation drove Phillips to investigate alternative handling methods. He was familiar with hydraulic push-pullattachments however, the goods were not all on slip sheets nor did he want to invest in a dedicated forklift to accommodate such an attachment. The same held true for a carton-clamp. Given the nature of the goods, (glassware), and the fashion in which they were loaded into the container, such a device simply wouldn’t work.
An internet search quickly lead Phillips to Meijer Handling Solutions’ innovative “RollerForks®”. Anxious to learn more, he contacted Meijer Handling Solutions Inc., the US distributor for Meijer Handling Solutions and within days of his initial inquiry, they were able to make arrangements for an on-site demo and first hand evaluation. “Our operators loved them”, Phillips said, “we’re now off-loading complete container loads in about 30-45 minutes time with just one operator! This is a big savings not to mention, it has also helped us reduce physical safety risks”.
