Frequently Asked Questions About Bespoke Handling Solutions
Bespoke handling solutions are specially designed pieces of equipment or systems developed to meet particular materials handling requirements. They can be used to move, lift, turn, sort, store or transfer products where standard conveyor equipment alone may not provide the most suitable solution.
Amber Industries has designed and manufactured a variety of specialist handling equipment, including automatic beam unloaders, laundry conveyors, cooling and storage units, product turnover units, package sorters, food distribution conveyor lines and lifting elevators. Each solution is developed around the requirements of the application.
Yes. Bespoke handling equipment can be designed to work alongside other conveyor equipment as part of a wider materials handling process. For example, Amber Industries has developed a beam unloader that transfers painted racking beams from an overhead chain conveyor onto a belt conveyor for onward movement to despatch.
Bespoke materials handling equipment can be used across manufacturing, processing, warehousing and distribution operations. Amber Industries' examples include commercial laundries, window frame production, paint finishing, package sorting, pet food processing and warehouses with mezzanine storage levels.
Yes. Amber Industries has designed specialist equipment for products requiring particular handling arrangements. One example is a turnover unit developed to turn delicate sheet materials so that both sides can receive surface treatment. The handling method can be considered in relation to the product's shape, size and processing requirements.
Yes. Specialist handling equipment can help address layout restrictions and make use of different working levels. For example, lifting elevator units can move palletised loads between warehouse floors and mezzanine levels, while other bespoke equipment can be designed around the available production or storage space.
Yes. Bespoke handling equipment can incorporate automated functions to support product movement, transfer and sorting. Amber Industries has developed automatic beam unloading equipment and package sorting systems with multiple outlets. The level of automation depends on the handling task and the requirements of the wider operation.
