View carts for STILL Eberspächer wanted to go forklift-free in their production and improve the material flow. FlexQube was contacted and the first carts were implemented in 2012. Since then, the customer has continuously modified and upgraded the carts. Both to suit new demands but also to take care of feedback from the operators to improve the carts even more. The FlexQube™ concept makes that possible without discarding building blocks making it a sustainable solution for the industry. By replacing forklifts with a mother/daughter tugger train to feed material to the welding lines it was possible to transport more material in every transport. Instead of feeding one pallet at a time, four carts with material can be transported to the line. The carts were designed in close cooperation with the operators that use the carts daily, and for them it was a big change. “The carts have been a huge improvement when it comes to ergonomics. The materials are easily rolled on and off the cart to the assembly station. Always at a good height and close to the body.” Employee at Eberspaecher. “The carts have been a huge improvement when it comes to ergonomics.” Maritza Zegovia, Eberspächer Maritza Zegovia, Logistics Engineer at Eberspacher. Happy engineers The engineers are also happy with the carts. “I am extremely satisfied with the carts. I feel proud when I see them at the production lines or when the carts are transported by the tugger train. They have a very solid design, very robust.” The customer has more than 300 carts in 15 different versions. “I am extremely satisfied with the carts. I feel proud when I see them at the production lines.” Maritza Zegovia, Eberspächer Watch video Carts in action Get in contact!
