KOOI® ReachForks have set a new standard in material handling solutions by revolutionizing the production process through advanced automation.
100,000th set of KOOI® ReachForks produced
With the production of the 100,000th set of KOOI® ReachForks this year, the annual volumes have naturally increased every year as well, and in order to meet the demand, a high degree of automation is taking place. At the sister company Meijer-Metal, the outer sleeves for the telescopic forks, among other things, are produced. From the moment they are bent into shape, the semi-finished products are transported via AGV to one of the four welding robots. After the outer sleeves are welded, they are transported to a buffer location in a fully automated way and dispatched to the assembly department of the ReachForks when needed. With this degree of automation, the production of the KOOI® ReachForks is prevented from stagnating due to personnel failures or shortages, and the welding quality always remains constant. The following investment has already been made: robotized press brakes that will bend lasered output from the outer sleeves in a fully automated manner.
As a result, production efficiency has significantly increased, allowing us to meet growing demand while maintaining the highest standards of quality. This degree of automation ensures continuous production and minimizes the risks associated with labor shortages or inconsistencies.
The ISO standards are primarily committed to quality, reliability, and precision within various industrial processes. A company adhering to these ISO standards demonstrates its dedication to maintaining high-quality management systems, ensuring robustness in forklift fork manufacturing, and precise contamination control in hydraulic fluids. Such compliance underscores the company's focus on delivering products and services that meet rigorous international benchmarks, improving operational efficiency, minimizing errors, and enhancing customer satisfaction. This commitment not only sets the company apart in terms of product reliability and safety but also reflects its ongoing investment in technological advancements and continuous improvement.
