Vertical Carousel System Maximizes Floor Space

Substantial growth presented challenges to this manufacturer of fixed point and portable gas detection systems. Rather than build a new facility, automation in their existing plant maximized space, inventory and productivity with the installation of vertical carousels. Mobile carts consumed 300 square feet of floor space. The vertical carousel system reduced that space to just 67 square feet. Production setup time was reduced from 4 hours to 20 minutes. Within a short time, 11 individual vertical units are now in operation in this manufacturing facility.
