CooLift Delivery System at MODEX 2014 by Magline Innovation

Jan. 21, 2014 - PRLog -- New lift-pallet systems offer the biggest promise for supporting product innovation in the marketplace. The Magline CooLift Delivery System provides an easier method for drivers to deliver products at many stops is what drives this innovation of new (smaller than traditional) half-pallets. Magline is exhibiting the CooLift Delivery System at the largest expo, MODEX, for the manufacturing and supply chain industries.  Attendees visiting Magline Booth #2531 will learn about the Magline CooLift Delivery System innovation in Atlanta, GA on March 17-20, 2014.

Managing the supply chain, from warehouse to retail is often overlooked; this phase of logistics represents a significant opportunity to improve productivity, profitability, and implement lean processes, most important to material handling supply chain professionals.

Larger traditional pallets require the assistance of an electric pallet jack, and cannot fit into the back rooms of most convenience stores. The CooLift System allows for a distribution process of “hybrid” routes, tailored to the realities of the common variety delivery model.

As SKUs are proliferating and new outlet types are developed, there is growing concern about the employees performing distribution jobs. Seeking productivity gains, companies have turned to warehouse automation, which is resulting in fewer trucks and trailers out on the road and a potentially shrinking workforce with fewer route distribution drivers. The shrinking workforce means tenured employees tend to stay on the job longer and, as the workforce ages, it becomes more difficult to do the work at the same level with the amount of bending and twisting involved. Best-practice solutions keep dedicated hard-working delivery drivers on the road.
