HANDLING & STORAGE FEATURE
SPACE-SAVING STORAGE AND EFFICIENT RESTACKING At CeMAT Asia KASTO will present the space-saving UNIBLOC stacking cradle system noteworthy for short access times and simple material handling. The compact UNIBLOC system is a cost- effective alternative for all storage needs when low to medium access frequencies are required and it does not pay to install a highly dynamic, fully automatic bar storage system. It can transport and store bar stock, sheet metal and other bulky goods with lengths of three to 24 meters. Simple operation and handling provides quick access to stored goods and efficient restacking. The UNIBLOC system stores pipes, bars, steel beams and other bar stock on sturdy, precision-welded cradle pairs. The cradles can be stacked on one another, making better use of space. A spreader beam with patented gripper arms transports and restacks up to three layers at the same time, depending on the model. This considerably accelerates turnover and reduces access times. The spreader beam can be moved manually by means of a stacker, automatically via a gantry crane or hoist crane or with a magnetic lift. The automatic UNIBLOC storage system incorporates the KASTO Inventory Control Computer which manages materials and storage locations. Organising storage, restacking and
removal optimises the entire work process. Thanks to continuous inventory management the operator is able to monitor stocks at all times and if necessary optimise them during unmanned shifts. Bars are managed individually to avoid unnecessary waste, thus reducing material costs. Manual UNIBLOC systems can be retrofitted for automatic operation.

FOLD FLAT PALLET COLLAR SAVES SPACE
Goplasticpallets.com’s pallet collar is quick to assemble and disassemble, offers users flexibility since they can be built up to the height required and folds down flat easily when not in use saving valuable transport space on return journey trips. Available in two standard sizes the pallet collar can transform a plastic or wooden pallet into a robust storage container in seconds. Users can dictate the height of the box they wish to create: the collar can be built up in increments of 330mm to accommodate any load required meaning less warehouse space is wasted. This stage by stage assembly makes loading goods much easier and safer since no leaning into a part empty box is required. Users can tightly pack goods to prevent contents shifting and limit wasted space, reducing shipping costs on outbound journeys. As the plastic pallet collar is reusable
there is no packaging waste unlike with stretch wrapping.
Goplasticpallets.com can personalise pallet collars by screen printing your logo or company name. Lids are available for added security.
