Creform has designed and built a small batch supply kitting cart for an electro-mechanical manufacturer. The cart is loaded in their storage and inventory area and is then transferred a short distance to the production area point of use.
The five-level kitting shelf cart features a tall vertical compartment to handle long items and small compartments to handle sundry materials. Each shelf features a sold HDPE plastic surface and Creform pipe lip around three sides of the perimeter to ensure that the components stay on the shelf during transport. The second level from the bottom features short vertical pegs used for panel separation and protection.
A compartmented three-level section is built into the end of the cart that features nine small cubby holes to hold subassemblies and other components. They are kept separate for easy retrieval and product protection.
The cart features six large 5 in. diameter casters. Wheels move the structure during transport but also are suitable for housekeeping and/or repositioning. The cart’s dimensions are 30” w x 72” l x 70” t and is designed to hold up to 500 lbs.
