Material handling equipment refers to machinery and devices used for the movement, storage, and handling of materials and products within a facility. This equipment is essential for streamlining warehouse operations and improving efficiency. There are four major categories of material handling equipment: transport, positioning, unit load formation, and storage. Many types of material handling equipment are now automated/motorized which helps workers get their jobs done more efficiently and safely.
Common types of material handling equipment include forklifts, conveyor systems, pallet jacks, automated guided vehicles, stackers and lift tables, shelving and storage bins, and cranes and hoists. Effecting material handling equipment can significantly improve a warehouse’s storage capacity, organization, and overall operational efficiency. This ultimately leads to cost savings and improved customer service. Allow our team at Ohio Valley Rack and Material Handling to support you and your business and ensure your success!
