Finnish robotics specialist Cimcorp will be launching its 3D Shuttle solution on stand 18P30 at the show. This innovative system combines proven gantry robot technology with an integrated shuttle device in order to store and retrieve totes required for order fulfilment. The use of independently operating shuttles for the retrieval of required totes allows the robots to return to storage tasks sooner, boosting efficiency.
EnerSys Motive Power (20F30) will be showing visitors a new model in its Hawker XFC range that features advanced Lithium- Ion technology.
The Hawker XFC-Li is a 24V battery with 38Ah capacity that delivers significant benefits compared with conventional units including greater power density, longer pack life and excellent performance at low temperatures. B&B Attachments, the leading independent provider of forklift truck attachments and sole UK distributor of KAUP products, will use IMHX to launch KAUP’s latest solution, Conveyer Belt Forks, in the UK.
Demonstrated on stand 18M90, this innovative product bridges the gap between palletized and
palletless handling by enabling the user to do both. The surface of the forks has is an in-built conveyer belt system, allowing goods to be mechanically pulled onto the forks, and set down again in the same way. RediGroup will be demonstrating a fully working version of its RediTechniX system – an automated pallet storage, retrieval and sequencing solution – on stand 20F82. Winner of the UKWA 2012 award for Technology and Innovation, the solution combines the patented RediLogX pallet buffer and sequencing system with ASRS technology to increase the storage density of a warehouse by up to 80% compared to a VNA system. Well known in the construction
and agriculture industries, Manitou Group (20B43) will be showcasing its offering for the UK material handling industry for the first time at IMHX. Manitou UK and many of its dealers have recently added the new MI range of industrial counterbalanced forklift trucks to their offering. Fully designed in France by Manitou and assembled in China by Beijing Hangcha Forklift Company, there are 12 models in the range with load capacities between 1500kg and 3500kg.
Another product to be shown for the first time at IMHX is a high-power, lead-acid battery – TENSOR – from GNB Industrial Power (19L120).
Manitou Group will showcase its range of forklifts at this year’s gathering.
Ideal for use in heavy-duty applications and cold-storage environments, TENSOR demonstrates improved performance, capacity and energy efficiency compared to a conventional motive power battery. It also has a lower operating temperature, which extends its operational life. As well as demonstrating its workspace planning software – offering 2D and 3D visual simulations – and its project management service, workplace storage specialist, Bott, will be exhibiting a new pincode locking feature for its popular Cubio

storage range. On display on stand 20C130, the pincode lock option is available for all Cubio heavy-duty drawer cabinets, offering up to 100 individual user code options as well as a master code facility. BITO Storage Systems will be showing PROflow, its new pallet live storage system, on stand 18M102. PROflow features a new and innovative load separator, called M-Stop, which enables a mix of different pallet types on a single flow lane. As the M-Stop works like a single-sided saloon swing door, the pallet length does not matter and a mix of different pallet types can be used on a single lane.
