Case Study: Helping an Automobile Manufacturer Develop a Forklift-free Environment
We Build Trust
An automobile manufacturer wanted to move toward a forklift-free environment to reduce costs and improve workplace safety. This is no small task and they quickly realized that industrial carts were going to play a huge role in the forklift-free facility.
Their carts needed a product that was durable, easy to roll and quiet.
The manufacturer found Caster Concepts while searching online and wondered if their ErgoMaxx™ would be the solution to their problem.
Caster Concepts encouraged the manufacturer to perform some rigorous testing in their facility with the ErgoMaxx™ 57 Series wheel.
Not only did the caster require 25% less force to move the loaded carts, it reduced noise and was the clear ergonomic choice for their facility. The manufacturer has standardized the use of this caster within their facility and continues to work closely with the team at Caster Concepts to solve their mobility issues.
Here’s an article on the benefits of making a manufacturing facility forklift-free.
