Store more: Equipto’s Deck-Over Storage
System is designed to meet the current storage
needs of warehousing and material handing
facilities, as well as provide flexibility for future
growth. As a cost-effective alternative to adding
a complete mezzanine, Equipto’s V-Grip Storage
Shelving Units can be interlocked and stacked
on top of each other to gain overhead storage.
Walkways can be added in between the shelving units for second and third floor access.
As a deck-over system, this storage solution
uses existing shelving structures to build upon
and expand. Since existing shelving is utilized to
create the base supports, expansion costs are
considerably less than adding a traditional complete mezzanine. (Equipto Storage Solutions,

Manifesting destiny: Numina Group, a developer of material handling distribution automation products, software, and services, has
released its X-Press PAL Labeling System. X-Press
PAL is a complete hardware and software solution designed to automate shipping and manifesting operations. It uses a modular 24-volt DC
conveyor and features integral bar-code scanning, weighing, carton dimensioning, print-and-apply labeling, and manifesting. The system
labels and manifests parcel shipments at a rate
of 14 cartons a minute all within just 10 feet of
space. It provides an ROI of six to nine months
for facilities with as little as 700 parcels a day.
An optional upgrade version called X-Press
PAL Plus provides Numina Group’s exclusive
label applicator with a duplex thermal label
printer that simultaneously prints the shipping
label on the top side and the packing slip on
the back side of a single label.
X-Press PAL’s modular design allows the system to function as a stand-alone automation
system or be integrated with the latest packaging technology for automating the picking,
packing, and shipping processes. Combining
packing, void fill, and an in-line taper with X-Press PAL reduces order fulfillment time and
errors, increases profitability, and slashes labor
expenses, according to the manufacturer.
