MATERIAL HANDLING SOLUTIONS

Automated lift truck stacker: The Raymond Corp. has launched the Raymond Courier 3030, a next-generation automated lift truck stacker that utilizes Seegrid vision-guided technology and combines horizontal transport and vertical pallet lift.

Supporting Raymond’s introduction of intelligent warehouse solutions, the Courier 3030

stacker is designed to automate stacking from pick to delivery locations.

Ideal for handling and transporting products between connected manufacturing and warehouse facilities, the Courier 3030 stacker helps maximize workforce productivity and drive down labor costs, the company says. With a second-level vertical reach capability of up to 72 inches and a weight capacity of 2,500 pounds, the automated stacker is suitable for pickup/dropoff, end-of-aisle, and end-of-line applications as well as conveyor picking.

The Courier 3030 stacker is able to transport pallets of different sizes and types. In addition, the reverse-motion and auto-en-gagement functions optimize workflow and increase productivity, helping warehouses work better and more efficiently, according to the company. (The Raymond Corp., www.

Li-ion–powered pallet trucks: Big Joe Forklifts has introduced the Joey E33

and WPL44 Li-ion–powered pallet trucks.

With capacities of 3,300 pounds and 4,400

pounds, respectively, these pallet trucks feature quick-change batteries and powerful permanent magnet drive motors. The WPL44

also comes with an innovative quick-change control module and control head.

In addition, Big Joe has announced the availability of its PDX series of custom-built straddle stackers. This built-to-order line of high-performance forklifts features four platforms with capacities ranging from 2,000 to

5,000 pounds, according to the company.

Base units can be customized in almost every aspect, including straddle length, straddle width, carriage size, carriage type, carriage width, and mast height. The company says the PDX trucks are engineered and manufactured in its Wisconsin Dells factory using nearly 100% U.S.-made components. (Big Joe, www.bigjoeforklifts.com)

Battery management device: Telematics provider Access Control Group has updated its wireless battery management device, Cell Trac. CellTrac can now collect meter hours, engine run time, and GPS location data on any internal-combustion (IC) or electric vehicle (EV) in addition to the battery data CellTrac already collects, such as voltage, current, and temperature. These updates make it possible for fleet managers to use one device to manage both electric and fossil-fueled fleets, saving organizations around $400 per asset after eliminating asset-only telematics systems.
