Aisle Master takes centre stage at CFT February 1st 2007 When Rochdale based warehousing and distribution company CFT opened a second depot in the West Midlands, it decided to base the layout of its storage area and racking configuration around the capabilities of an Aisle-Master articulated forklift. CFT's new operation at Wednesbury distributes a wide variety of palletised goods to customers across the West Midlands region from its 30,000ftÇ warehouse. MD Chris Flynn was keen to find a much more flexible and space saving alternative to a counterbalance forklift, and when he spotted an Aisle- Master at an exhibition he realised he need search no further. The versatility offered by CFT's LPG powered Aisle- Master has enabled a current total of 1,500 pallet locations to fit comfortably in the warehouse, and the narrow aisle widths leave room for further racking to be installed in conjunction with the ongoing growth of the company. From an operational point of view, General Manager Andy Czernuska could not be more pleased: "The Aisle-Master's articulated concept and its versatility has greatly speeded up stock rotation. As it works both inside and out it has also drastically reduced the time needed to take loads to and from the trucks and storage bays." More articles from Aisle-Master Ltd: |
