Airfloat has combined its resources to create the ultimate in manufacturing efficiency. Incorporating the design of our shuttles, turntables and rack handling systems, we have developed this state-of-the-art Automated Rack Handling System. This modular system is designed with drop in stations to adapt precisely to your specific needs, configurations, and rack sizes, providing the flexibility you need in this rapidly changing environment for future expansion or reduction.
Airfloat automated rack handling systems save time and labor in material handling in the warehouse and on the production line. Each modular station can be designed for today's needs with the flexibility to meet tomorrow's new requirements. Different rack sizes can be integrated into systems which can be fully automated and adapted to change with just software modifications. Operator safety is carefully designed into the rack-handling system; the operator controls the system through a simple touch screen.
