Randex launches ‘Compact 24/7’ vertical storage-robotics integrator


Leading vertical storage lift company Randex is launching ‘Compact 24/7’, a solution that integrates the company’s ‘Compact’ family of automated vertical storage systems with robotics technology to allow continuous, 24/7 warehouse picking with up to 50% fewer warehouse workers say Randex. ‘Compact 24/7’ allows automated vertical storage to be integrated with a wide range of robotic types including autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), collaborative robots (or ‘cobots’) and automated guided vehicles (AGVs). “Automated vertical storage already delivers proven benefits for warehousing and logistics users” says Randex director James Roberts. ‘Compact’ vertical storage lifts already save up to 90% of floor space compared to standard


shelving and pallet racking. They can manage loads of up to 100 metric tonnes and already enable warehouse operatives to complete up to four times more picks than in a traditional warehouse, with goods automatically presented to the picker.

OK AristoRod® 38 Zn solid wire reduces spatter, porosity for more productivity when welding galvanised steels


ESAB’s OK AristoRod® 38 Zn is a solid wire with a specially alloyed formula that minimises porosity and spatter on galvanised steels. It significantly reduces or eliminates rejects and rework, delivering optimised results when welding the galvanised steel components used in transportation, white goods, agricultural tanks and troughs, HVAC systems and construction (roofs, facades, gates, fences, stairs, catwalks). Through tightly controlled micro-alloying elements in its


Rite-Hite supports increased safety at the loading bay with translated driver information


Rite-Hite, one of the leading manufacturers of industrial safety solutions, has made available a series of signs and flyers in multiple languages for international drivers to support the correct operation of the safety equipment in loading bay environments, and notably its Global Wheel-Lok vehicle restraint. It is part of the company’s ongoing drive to embed a culture of ‘safety first’ within the loading bay


environment, and which will be explored in further literature over the next 12 months. Many drivers may not be familiar with the equipment and may not have English as their first


language. To address a potential safety issue, Rite-Hite is providing literature that helps anyone using its systems for the first time to fully understand how those systems operate, reducing the risk of accidents and increasing their safe operation. As an expert in loading bay safety, Rite-Hite is acutely aware of the multi-national, and therefore


the multi-lingual, nature of the logistics business and is determined to make sure its systems are straightforward to use for all nationalities. Thorsten Mauritz, Marketing Manager (Europe) at Rite-Hite, says thinking out of the box is


essential: “At Rite-Hite we provide pragmatic solutions and advanced technologies, and we strive to support our customers. “Ensuring all the instructions and signs are in multiple languages, including many Eastern-


European languages like Polish, Romanian, Hungarian, and Lithuanian, will allow for a safer, more efficient operation. We can also provide other languages on request to reflect the increasingly global make-up of our audience.” Rite-Hite will publish a comprehensive guide to Loading Dock Safety giving facility managers an in-


depth overview of recent regulatory changes, technological advances and trends, and best practice for ensuring efficiency and compliance in any logistics facility or environment.

formulation, OK AristoRod 38 Zn addresses the root cause of porosity and spatter associated with standard ER70S-6 wires without the expense or increased risk of burn through associated with metal cored wires. ESAB conducted head-to-head tests against other common options for welding galvanised steel. The results were conclusive: OK AristoRod 38 Zn offers the best performance at the lowest total cost of production. OK AristoRod 38 Zn is available in diameters of 0.8, 1.0 and 1.2 mm in 18 kg spools and 250


kg Marathon Pacs.
