Structural Material Handling

Peddinghaus Corp. has developed material handling to suit the needs of the largest and smallest of fab shops. These versatile solutions tailor to the specific needs of each individual facility by addressing the primary concerns of structural fabricators: footprint, modular design, and throughput.

Indoor shop footprint can be minimized by placing material handling conveyors outside. Peddinghaus material handling maintains a robust structure capable of withstanding the elements outdoors alongside steel profiles. This option allows fabricators the opportunity to place all material handling in-feeds and unprocessed steel outside, minimizing the systems total footprint within the main fab shop facility. Taking advantage of the benefits Peddinghaus material handling offers will provide fabricators the opportunity to minimize overhead costs.

Utilizing a modular design, Peddinghaus material handling is configurable to satisfy the needs of fabricators large and small. This allows conveyors and machines to be able to be configured in many patterns allowing more options and simple machine additions when necessary. Peddinghaus Layout Engineers study shop footprints and arrange machinery for each fabricators specific needs.

Proper material handling is essential to optimize throughput in any fabrication facility. Peddinghaus' modular design reduces the need to handle material with a crane or fork truck resulting in better use of space, and less time wasted during production. This maximizes throughput, and minimizes overhead costs associated with traditional material handling methods.
