By: TR Cutler Torrance, Inc. of Des Moines, Iowa, a Seegrid distributor partner, recommended the GT10 tow tractor to American Packaging. “We introduced them to the Seegrid GT10 to help alleviate some of the safety concerns in the present application, which was previously pulling/pushing, by two associates, heavy cylinder carts to the printing presses. The GT10 is also utilized to transfer carts significant distances for waste removal,” stated Chad Kellis, Major Account Manager for Torrance, Inc. Bob Teuscher, Shipping and Receiving Department Manager for American Packaging noted, “The GT10 tow tractor along with the GP8 pallet trucks have allowed me to redeploy the utilization of APC’s workforce in a much more cost-effective area of production while increasing productivity without adding to the overall workforce total. Robots were the right solution for delivering goods to specific locations and I have the ability to change where the robots go at a moments notice.” According to Torrance, Inc. fitted with the right application, “The robotic products Torrance offers from Seegrid will help our clients reduce the need for human interaction during the manufacturing process, increase reliability and productivity with little to no downtime, and integrate seamlessly due to zero infrastructure changes. The added bonus is the flexibility in routes, able to change whenever needed. In comparing the product lines to increases in actual manpower, many of our customers have found that it is considerably less expensive to use a Seegrid robotic industrial truck in their application,” MHI is the nation's largest material handling, logistics and supply chain association. MHI offers education, networking and solution sourcing for members, their customers and the industry as a whole through programming and events.
