Pental Material Handling
If you are a shop that works with Pental material you may already know much of the information in this article. And if you are setting up a new shop and plan on working with Pental this is information that you will most certainly need to know since it relates to engineered quartz equipment. In this article we will talk about some of the material handling equipment that is needed to work with Pental and how it makes your daily work easier.
What is Meant by Material Handling?
For Pental products, material handling involves many of the same concepts as other engineered quartz. But what exactly does that entail? For one, material handling involves simply storing Pental in a warehouse or a slab yard. Another part of material handling includes loading and unloading Pental for vehicles. Finally, when we say "material handling", we may be talking about maneuvering and/or positioning Pental slabs. This could be to cut the material or to finish it, either way, it is a facet of material handling.
Equipment for Storing Pental
Fabrication shops at times have a great deal of material on hand with which to work. Because of this, and because the Pental slabs might need to be sitting in storage before they are actually used for surfaces, a hippo storage rack for Pental might be used for keeping the material on hand but out of the way until it is ready for use.
Pental Transport Products
If workers in the fabrication shop were given an option of how to transport Pental slabs, many would likely choose to use a piece of equipment like a short double side Pental cart because it makes the work load lighter in a sense. Being able to use a cart to transport slabs of Pental across the warehouse or shop is practical. And having an a frame rack in a work van can provide a measure of stability during transport.
Pental Loading & Unloading Equipment
Working in a warehouse, slab yard, or fabrication shop means having to lift or hoist large lsabs of material repeatedly and it is no different when the material is Pental. Being able to get a good grip on the Pental slab can be the difference between success and failure. And with the right equipment, this is possible. One example of a piece of equipment designed to help workers get ahold of a Pental slab is a vacuum lifter for Pental slabs. This machine, like others is designed to hold onto the material so it can be loaded or unloaded during the process of storage, delivery and/or fabrication.
In conclusion, having the proper material handling equipment for managing Pental products is not really all that different from what you would need to handle natural stone surfaces. Like any engineered quartz, working with Pental takes various products that are designed to lift, transport, and load large slabs of product.
