			<description>AFT supplies the two target USA distribution centers for refrigerated products and food</description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<span lang="EN-US">AFT has successfully equipped two food distribution centers (FDC) in the USA. They are identical in their construction utilising EMS materials handling technology. The first FDC in Lake City, Florida, entered into production in June 2008. The second followed exactly one year later and was built in Cedar Falls, Iowa.</span>

<span lang="EN-US">Both identical systems consist of approximately 3500m of EMS track, 78 switches, 4 elevators and 98 EMS vehicles.</span>

<span lang="EN-US">In these FDC’s they store food and frozen foods from the wholesalers which are then selected for the individual Target establishments. The warehouse divides itself into the „Cooler“ area at 0°C (+32°F) for fresh foods and vegetables and also in the „Freezer“ area with temperatures as low as -30°C (-22°F) for the frozen foods. </span>

<span lang="EN-US">AFT has delivered vehicles called CaddyPicks. These are EMS trolleys with several functions which the operators interface with to compose the respective collections. The loading and the delivery of pallets is performed automatically.</span>
<span lang="EN-US"></span>
<span lang="EN-US">Both systems have been in full production since start-up</span>

			<description>Heavy-duty installations EHB take over the tasks of the heavy-duty forklifts
</description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<span lang="EN-US">Through a process adjustment in the steel handling at a Swiss company processing steel there is necessary for the wire collies to be stored in a buffer in the raw material warehouse. This buffer consists of 13 allocation lines with 10 buffer-locations each.</span>
<span lang="EN-US">For the further transport of the wire collies from a location to the next one in the area of the allocation lines a transfer car operates per each line with a hydraulic lifting plate (bearing load 4t).</span>
<span lang="EN-US">At the end of the lines the goods to be conveyed are picked up by a heavy-duty EHB vehicle with electrical cable pull and conveyed into the factory 1. There the vehicle delivers the goods to be conveyed again on the transfer car with a traverse path of a few meters before the material is distributed by the indoor crane to each target-establishment to be further processed.</span>
<span lang="EN-US">Parameters of the establishment</span>:

Thereby the vehicles pass through 13 working stations from the reception of the empty gearboxes until the hand-over of the completely assembled transmission units. The positioning of the vehicle is performed with a barcode band along the EHB track and a barcode reader from the vehicle.</span>
