Plastics and home appliance manufacturing
Injection moulding and home appliance plants move many parts between machines, stores and assembly lines, and ship large, light finished goods. These are the usual internal flows and the equipment for each.
Typical tasks
- Moving moulded parts and components between machines, stores and assembly lines
- Buffering work in progress between processes
- Moving goods between floors
- Storing and shipping large, light cartons
What to send us: Takt times and material flows between areas, the carriers you use (totes, carts, pallets), the layout with column grid and clear heights, and your MES / ERP interface needs.
Common questions
How are moulded parts moved automatically from the machines to the store?
A common approach is to unload the machine into totes or carts, then move them with tote-handling AMRs, rail-guided vehicles or conveyors to the store or the assembly line. The choice depends on distance, takt and carriers, and is assessed on site.
How are large, light cartons stored?
Usually on pallets in a pallet AS/RS, fed by pallet conveyors and palletising. Carton sizes, stacking strength and clear height are checked first.
