Ensuring safety and keeping all processes fully under control are crucial requirements for any transport application in intralogistics systems. To make sure goods aren’t damaged by being moved around on forklifts, item has developed Forklift Pocket 8 St 260x90x40. This part acts like a guide rail, making sure the forks of the truck are perfectly positioned when lifting up or setting down large load carriers, pallets and frames. It also stops the load from slipping or tipping to the side. The robust steel fittings are simply mounted to the underside of the load carrier and completely surround the forks when they are inserted. As a result, transported goods are held securely in place even when rounding bends and driving over uneven surfaces. The Forklift Pocket also protects the profile frame from damage. Another new product item is launching onto the market is Stacking Guide 8 St 120x80-30°. This fitting is designed to bring added safety and control for transport processes by ensuring pallets, containers and frames are perfectly positioned when stacked one on top of the other. As a robust and exceptionally durable centring aid, Stacking Guide 8 St 120x80-30° makes sure transported goods slide into the correct orientation when set down. It offers an effective means of preventing positioning errors. Both Forklift Pocket 8 St 260x90x40 and Stacking Guide 8 St 120x80-30° are fully compatible with the entire item MB Building Kit System and can be retrofitted to profiles with a Line 8 groove.
