Five Categories of Material Handling Equipment Part Three
Two more categories of Material Handling Equipment: Identification and Control Equipment and Storage Equipment.
Control Equipment is used to gather data to help the smooth flow of materials from the facility and the worksite or its customers. This gear can include portable data terminals, barcoders and RF taggers.
Storage Equipment is used for holding materials for any length of time. These can include drive-in racks, cantilever racks and storage carousels.
If you are new to the industry and need some familiarization, take a good look around your worksite to see how many of these items you can identify in everyday operation.
