Non-automated storage equipment is typically limited to those that are not automated. These items can be grouped with engineered systems. The storage equipment is used to store or buffer materials during periods of "downtimes", or when they are not being moved. These periods can be temporary pauses in long-term transport or long-term storage that allows stock to build up. Most storage equipment is made up of pallets, shelves, or racks on which materials can be stored in an orderly fashion to allow for transportation or consumption. Many companies have developed proprietary packaging to help products or materials of a particular type conserve space in their inventory. This has allowed them to increase efficiency in storage equipment.
GSS Machinery Storage Systems delivers a high-quality product and excellent customer service no matter how many products we purchase.
Engineered systems cover a variety of units that work cohesively to enable storage and transportation. They are often automated. A good example of an engineered system is an Automated Storage and Retrieval System, often abbreviated AS/RS, which is a large automated organizational structure involving racks, aisles and shelves accessible by a “shuttle” system of retrieval. The shuttle system is a mechanized cherry picker that can be used by a worker or can perform fully automated functions to quickly locate a storage item’s location and quickly retrieve it for other uses.
Material handling is vital for the safe transport of goods and materials between manufacturing and distribution.
GSS Machinery takes material handling to the next level by using the most advanced automated storage systems and retrieval systems. Automated solutions increase productivity and accuracy, reduce storage space requirements, and improve employee safety.
A wide range of industrial material handling equipment can be described as tools, vehicles, storage units and appliances that transport, control, enumerate, protect and store products at all stages of manufacturing, distribution and disposal.
Bulk material handling involves the transportation, storage and control of loose bulk materials. These materials include liquids, food, and minerals. These equipment are generally used for moving loose materials, such conveyor belts or elevators. They can also be used to pack the material using drums and/or hoppers.
There are four main reasons material handling is important in your warehouse.

Bulk handling material equipment controls, transports and stores loose form materials in large quantities.
Material handling equipment includes manual, semi-automated or automated equipment that assists in the movement and storage materials within the warehouse.
Material handling equipment is a combination of manual, semiautomatic, and automated equipment. It assists with material storage and movement within the warehouse.
A material storage system's function is to store materials for a period of time and to provide access to those materials when needed. Material types Table 11.1 shows the product (raw material, purchased parts, and work-in-process). Finished product (including rework and scrap) Process (Refuse, Toding, Spare parts)
Heavy loads should be placed on the lower or middle shelves. Long, tall, or top-heavy items should be stored on their sides or secured to prevent tipping. To access materials in higher locations, place ladders on stable, level surfaces and use stair platforms. Properly lift materials.
Material handling systems and processes that are well-designed reduce inventory, shorten delivery times, improve customer service, and lower manufacturing, distribution, and transportation costs. Material handling systems are used in a variety of industries, including aerospace, in addition to warehousing and storage.
