Materials Handling
Linde Material Handling
Basic Principles The best handling solutions involve the least handling. Handling adds to the cost but not to the value of the product. The choice of the right equipment or system to optimise material flow is broadly a definition of MATERIALS HANDLING and includes cranes, conveyors, automated vehicles, tractors, free ranging forklifts, order pickers, stackers and pallet trucks.
The unit load Products, whether they be cartons, bags, cans, bottles, drums or sacks are assembled together to form a unit load. The commonly used base on which unit loads are formed are flat, wooden pallets, ISOand containers, contain roll cages and tote (sometimes bins. Others plastic) are stillages, box cage ers, pallets, bulk containers, for example.
Palletless handling Products are often handled without pallets using specialised attachments in place of forks: bales, white goods, cookers, carpets, tyres, drums, beer kegs, paper rolls and milk crates are just some of the many products where attachments attachments are utilised.

The Application It is essential to consider all aspects of an application in order to ensure that the most suitable equipment is specified and the best handling solution selected. Important factors are:
The load and the pallet or other load base type a) Pallet details Length; width; depth; type, ie any base boards; pallet underhang under forks; are the base boards chamfered? two- or four-way access? b) Load details Weight; length when stacked on pallet; width when stacked on pallet;bags, overall height loadload andshrink pallet;wrapped? type of load: cartons, sacks etc; of is the
Type of storage Block stack, fixed racking, mobile racking and so on. Stack height What is the maximum top shelf height onto which loads must be lifted? This will determine height of lift and define nominal and residual capacities. The forks have to lift the pallet above the top shelf with sufficient underclearance place load onaccount). the top shelf (mast deflections musttoalso be the taken into
Overhead obstructions Is there sufficient clear headroom over the stacking area with the mast fully raised? Note any overhead obstructions either in the aisle or on the travelling route. This will determine whether free lift or triplex masts are necessary necessary.. Allow for possible future changes to the application.

The Application Distances To whether pedestrian or rider equipment is required, thedetermine average and maximum distances covered in a typical work cycle need to be established. Sometimes a tractor/trailer system may be the preferable method.
Surfaces/gradients The length of any gradient is important as well as its surface and slope. This determines the truck and battery capacity and, sometimes, the type of wheel/tyre equipment. It is also very pertinent to record the types of surfaces on the level areas. Working area and duty Inside or outside, order picking, lorry loading/unloading, loading docks, container container stuffing, public roads. Careful study and definition is needed.

Pal alle lets ts & Sti till llag ages es Wooden pallets vary in dimensions and in design, although there has been some success towards standardisation in Europe. An aperture is required between the top and bottom decks for fork entry. Where there are bottom boards they must be suitably spaced for use with pallet trucks. Some examples of typical pallet design are shown here: Four-way entry flat pallet with blocks as spacers. Top deck includes three transverse stringers, while bottom boards occur on two sides only. On the other two (800mm) sides, entry is provided without bottom boards. The Europallet is a typical example (800 x 1200mm). Four-way entry flat pallet with perimeter base. Bottom deck is boarded on all four sides so that a pallet truck always enters over the bottom boards which are usually chamfered. This type of pallet is used widely in the UK (10 (1000 00 x 120 1200 0 mm) mm)..

Pall allet etss & St Still illag ages es Roll cage comprises a deck with wheels and and meshed side castors frames to retain the loads. It is widely used in order picking and distribution of consumer goods.
Pallet collar is used to convert a conventional flat pallet into a box pallet to store loose components, for example.
Box pallet with sides and stacking feet is used to contain loads of small articles; for example, automotive parts.
Pallet converter is a metal frame which is fitted to a normal wooden pallet to allow block stacking of crushable loads.

Palletless Handling & Specialised Fork Options
A wide variety of attachments is available for fitment to counterbalance and reach trucks for palletless handling of various products. Examples Examples are illustrat illustrated ed and briefly brief ly described; we can advise on selecting the right type for your specific requirements.
Standard forged steel forks of various lengths are laterally adjustable, and usually have a slight the underside; the toptaper faceon is flat, primarily for handling palletised loads.
Fork extensions are metal sleeves which slide on to the forks and lock into place enabling longer loads to be handled. The extension must not be more than 50% longer than the original forks (40% for trucks over over 5,000 5,000 kg) and the load carried should not overhang the extension. Residual capacity will be reduced with extensions fitted. Carriage backrest extension is a guar guard d fitted fitted to the the fork fork carriage to give support to the load when the mast is tilted backwards. Various heights are available.

Storage Methods Unit loads are stacked to optimise storage space and ensure efficient distribution. The layout and storage method chosen depends on several factors: l Throughput
frequency required (ABC analysis) l Type of product l First In First F irst Out requirement l Turnover rates l Accessibility to individual loads l Dedicated or random storage l Storage capacity needs. Stacking methods include:
Block stacking. Offers high density storage but restricts access to individual loads, and stacking height is limited by the crushability and stability of the product being stored (unless pallet converters are used). First In Last Out. Usually used for high turnover of limited number of product lines. Drive-in racking. High density storage with crushability factor removed since each pallet is separated from the one below. Usually First In Last Out, but can be First In First Out if an aisle is located at each end of storage lane to create drive through racking but this reduces the available storage space. Push back racking. High density storage by placing pallets on nested trolleys or rollers within the storage lanes. The pallets are then pushed back along the storage lane by the subsequent loads. Only practical where First In Last Out is acceptable. Restricted individual load access.
Static racking. 100% individual load access and First In First Out logistics are provided. Commonly used with reach trucks and counterbalance trucks. Totally flexible with high throughput capability.

Storage Methods Very narrow aisle racking. High density storage combined with 100% individual load access, good space utilisation and high throughput.
Double deep racking. As the name implies, pallets are stored two deep.. Offers deep Offers 50% indiv individual idual load load acces accesss – First In In Last Out. Good space utilisation. Storage capacity is increased by reducing the number of aisles required. Truck is fitted with telescopic or pantograph fork mechanism.
Mobile racking. High density storage while maintaining 100% individual load access. First In First Out. Higher investment costs but good payback for right application.
Gravity racking. Pallets are fed into storage lanes from one side and then roll down incline to be removed from other side of rack. Storage lanes can be several pallets deep. First In First Out. Ideal where high density storage and fast turnover is required. Turnover rates and the number of product lines involved will determine the storage layout using the ABC analysis: A = High turnover, fast throughput B = Average turnover, medium throughput C = Infrequent turnover, slow throughput A items are stored stored for the fastest fastest acces accesss while B and C items are stored progressively further away along the storage aisle.

Rated capacity is reduced as the load centre is increased. This method of estimating relates only to forward moments of the truck (and for a reach truck with reach out), and serves as a guide only. * This figure may reduce as lift height increases.
It does not follow that greater weight can be handled at load centres less than quoted; and at high lift the situation may be governed by other factors. Fork stress, and stress on mast and rollers, must also be taken into account. Consult Linde as necessary to ensure that your truck capacity is correctly assessed for unusual loading conditions. When an attachment is fitted to a fork lift truck, the nominal capacity of the truck is reduced. Consult Linde, providing full details of the load and the application.

Drawbar Pull (Towing) The towing capability of a tractor is defined in terms of drawbar pull quoted in Newtons (N). Two values of drawbar pull (DBP) need to be known: maximum DBP for starting from rest and continuous or rated (rolling) DBP at which the tractor can work for longer periods. Surface Resistance (SR) must also be allowed for; a table is given below in terms of Newtons per tonne towed load. For average calculations we use 400N/tonne starting and 200N/tonne rolling. Data:

Motive Power – Electric Trucks On electric trucks the battery is the source of energy, and optimum truck performance depends on correct use of the battery and charging equipment.
The battery. The voltage (V) of the battery is determined in the basic design of the truck. In general, for Linde trucks, most pallet trucks and stackers operate at 24 volts, reach trucks at 48 volts and VNA and counterbalance trucks at 48 or 80 volts. The capacity of a battery is usually defined in “Ampere-hours (Ah) at the 5 hour rate”. The true measure, however, of the energy available in a battery and therefore the amount of work it can do per charge, should always be quoted in kilowatt hours (kW h). Thus kW h = V x Ah 1000 A wet battery is filled with electrolyte, a mixture of deionised water and sulphuric acid. Other types of battery are available, eg maintenance-free (gel type). 2H2SO4 (dilute sulphuric acid). Specific gravity is a measure of the density of the sulphuric acid in the electrolyte at any particular state of charge. Electrolyte specific gravity related to state of charge (guide) State of charge (% charged)

These are guide figures only as other factors can also affect the capacity.
Wet batteries should not be discharged below 80% of their rated capacity and maintenance-free batteries below 60%.
Topping up electrolyte. Various systems are available to enable easy manual or automatic topping up of the battery electrolyte and low maintenance batteries are therefore optionally available which minimise gassing and topping up requirements. The charger has to be correctly matched to the battery, ie for the appropriate nominal voltage and its start-of-charge current must be that recommended by the manufacturer to suit the cell capacity. Other factors to be taken into account in choosing the right charger for your specific application requirements are: (a) 12 hou hourr or or 8 hou hourr char chargin ging g peri period od (b) type of AC main mainss supply supply to to be used used (singl (single e phase, phase, thr three ee phase) (c) voltage Linde can assist in making the right choice and suggest layouts for the charging room, if required.

Hydrostatic braking through the transmission means the service brake is only used for parking or emergencies resulting in minimal wear and reduced maintenance. Fully enclosed transmission prevents ingress of dust, water and other contaminates making it ideal for heavy duty, demanding environments, with maintenance routines kept to a minimum for maximum uptime. The Linde hydrostatic drive system enables reverse direction to be selected at any speed (within safe operating practice) without damaging the transmission; ideal for duties requiring frequent shunting backwards and forwards. The automatic engine speed control system delivers the precise amount of torque required for a specific hydraulic function ensuring that the engine is never over revved, resulting in quieter operation, lower exhaust emissions, less fuel consumption and longer engine life.
