Industrial/Materials Handling Applications

You'll need to have some facts about your current operations to make the decision about which kind of equipment will best fit your specific application.

step 1

What is your primary objective? Although most companies will find that they would like to do a combination of things, it is important that you focus on the key requirements of your project. Answer the following questions:

  • Do you need to get more work done in less time?
  • Do you need to save space?
  • Do you need to reduce the number of errors your system creates?
  • Do you need to improve ergonomics?
step 2

Determine what kind of materials you are storing:

  • Check for the size, weight, and handling requirements of your materials.


step 3 Determine what is the frequency of storing and retrieving the materials. This "access" figure will determine what kind of equipment is required to meet your volume of business.
step 4

Determine the potential locations for the equipment. This is a critical task as the location has a direct impact on what kind of equipment can be used. You'll need to know ceiling heights, floor load restrictions, and traffic patterns.

step 5 What is the growth factor for your materials? What is the "life expectancy" for your materials?

step 6

Once you have compiled the information from the steps above, go to our equipment chart. This chart gives you the parameters of the various types of equipment. Checking your facts against this chart will give you insight into what kind of equipment will meet your needs. Your application will likely require more analysis: feel free to put our 25 years of experience to work and contact info@diversifiedstorage.com for more information. We've helped thousands of companies make their operations more productive.
