New Generation of Integrated Material Handling Automation Powered by Geek+ Robotics Debuts at CIIF

New Generation of Integrated Material Handling Automation Powered by Geek+ Robotics Debuts at CIIF

Geek+ will be launching the latest Automated Forklift alongside with a full-process intralogistics automation solution


Chinese top robotics maker Geek+ Robotics (Beijing Geekplus Technology) will be demonstrating its latest material handling automation solution comprised of moving robot, self-driving forklift, mechanical arms at CIIF (China International Industry Fair) in Shanghai, from September 19th to 23rd , 2018.


Since founded in 2015, Geek+ Robotics has been committed to leading the logistics revolution in the era of intelligence through robotic and AI technology, big data analysis and the in-depth professional understanding of the supply chain. In its debut in CIIF, Geek+ announced that the demonstration will be an enlightenment of how a series of automatic industrial equipment collaborates with each other to cover each step of basic procedures in intelligent factory which involves in the integration of robot and automated forklift, material handling by moving robots, stacking and unstacking.

Geek Moving System aims to replace the traditional AGV and reduce labor intensity by flexible material handling and simple production line deployment. Featuring in simple deployment, elegant industrial design, high-precise navigation and long-lasting battery life, and its compatibility with cage trolley traction, conveyor roller, lifting and human-machine interaction make Geek Moving System a perfect match in various scenarios of manufacturing such as raw-material's receiving and transfer, picking, loading and production line interface, especially suitable for consumer electronics and automotive manufacturing.

The other innovative equipment that Geek+ is going to showcase is called Automated Forklift. Unlike traditional forklift operated by people, Geek Automated Forklift has realized self-driving through SLAM navigation and is capable of automated storage and retrieval. Its sensors can detect the measurement and position of the goods on the shelves, pinpoint the pallet slots accurately and carry the goods to the appointed area under the instruction from the scheduling system which is independently developed by Geek+ Robotics. In addition, combining with mechanic arms, Geek Moving Robot and Automated Forklift is able to cooperate seamlessly, in which case that forklift only runs in the high-rise shelves area while the moving robots undertake the pallets moving tasks in the wider area of the warehouse, therefore path conflicts and travelling distance will be reduced significantly.

"Either Industry 4.0 or Made in China 2025, the essence is the same. That is, intelligent manufacturing."commented Mr. Yong Zheng, CEO of Geek+ Robotics, " Not only the assorted intelligent equipment should be required in the intelligent factory, but also a powerful integrated control & scheduling system, which is able to schedule and coordinate each procedure of in-warehouse work flow so as to make sure every single equipment work in harmony. The ultimate mission of Geek+ is to develop a truly complete and highly flexible automation solution for intralosgistics with the thorough integration of hardware technology and software solution." continued Yong.

The full marketing team of Geek+ Robotics will be in the booth which is located in C017, Hall 7.1.

Creform stationary lineside flow rack provides for an organized flow of materials

Greer, SC—Creform Corporation, a manufacturer of unique products for material handling structures has designed and built a stationary flow rack to be used lineside for an assembly line. The flow rack can be virtually used in any industry and for most application and is particular useful holding an optimal amount of inventory at the point of assembly which maximizes floor space. It also can prevent excessive inventory which is one of the seven waste considerations in lean manufacturing. This flow rack contains an “L shaped” slide pipe and skate wheel conveyor.

Creform sales engineers worked closely with the customer to design this customized solution to meet their specific needs. The result is an optimized flow rack where parts and materials are strategically organized at the point of use. This setup enables workers to quickly locate the components they need, reducing downtime and saving time. Creform offers multiple flow lane options and can create virtually any hybrid solution.

Hamilton Caster & Mfg. Co., a 117-year-old industry leader in heavy-duty industrial casters, proudly announces the enhancement of its legacy Super Endurance Caster (SEC) series, now rebranded as the Spinfinity® Super Endurance Caster (ZFSEC) series. In addition, Hamilton is introducing the all-new Spinfinity® Super Endurance Dual Caster (ZFSEC2) series, both of which feature a new heavy-duty 'V-Style' seal designed to elevate performance in the most demanding environments.
The Spinfinity® Super Endurance Caster (ZFSEC) series replaces Hamilton’s legacy SEC series, setting a new benchmark for kingpinless caster design in extra heavy-duty applications. Central to this upgrade is the heavy-duty 'V-Style' seal, which offers protection against dirt, debris, and moisture. This advanced sealing technology ensures consistent performance and extends the life of the caster, making it the ideal choice for environments where reliability is critical.
"With the introduction of the V-Style seal, the ZFSEC series is engineered to withstand the harshest conditions while providing zero-fix, 100% maintenance-free operation," said Mark Lippert, president of Hamilton Caster. "This enhancement allows our customers to minimize maintenance costs and downtime, further solidifying Hamilton’s reputation for durability and dependability."
The ZFSEC series retains the robust construction that Hamilton is known for, including a swivel top plate and inner raceway made from forged steel, providing superior strength for shock conditions. Sealed precision ball bearings are also now standard in all wheels, contributing to the maintenance-free performance of the series. Notably, the zerk fittings have been eliminated, as the new design makes them unnecessary.
Complementing the ZFSEC series, Hamilton introduces the all-new Spinfinity® Super Endurance Dual Wheel Caster (ZFSEC2) series. This dual wheel series is engineered for extra heavy-duty applications where stability, durability, and maintenance-free operation are paramount. Like its counterpart, the ZFSEC2 series leverages the new 'V-Style' seal, ensuring that each caster is fully protected against contaminants that could compromise performance.
Combined with sealed precision ball wheel bearings, this caster series ensures zero-fix, 100% maintenance-free performance. The dual-wheel configuration enhances stability and allows for a lower overall height, offering a perfect blend of strength and maneuverability.
Casters in both series are finished in a durable HAA polyester platinum powder coat and are available in a wide variety of wheel types, allowing for customization based on application needs.
