Racking them up safely and securely
February 1st 2009

Stanley Handling has supplied a PowerMate stairclimber to Tyco Fire & Integrated Solutions' communications equipment site in Cambridgeshire.

Much of the site's output is electronics and communications equipment in racks. Because of the rack height, access through site doorways is often problematic. The PowerMate M2B was acquired to resolve the issue by enabling the units to be tilted. It is now widely used for movements around the plant, contributing to safer working practices and creating some efficiencies in manufacturing processes. Loaded with communications and video equipment,the racks can be heavy and cumbersome. The PowerMate has made handling them easier and more controlled, reducing risks to both personnel and goods.

The PowerMate is also being used to make some deliveries, improving safety and installation times.
