Optimizing Total Cost of Ownership: TPPL vs Li-ion

Optimizing Total Cost of Ownership: TPPL vs Li-ion

As motive power technology advances and options proliferate for Material Handling Equipment (MHI), decision makers may feel overwhelmed choosing from several different battery types that may suit a warehouse or distribution operation's needs. Many operations find that they are choosing between a TPPL and a Li-ion option for their MHE batteries. Getting the best Total Cost of Operation (TCO) depends on an understanding of first, the usage model, and second, which technology best fits the way MHE is used. In this white paper, you will learn about the different kind of lead acid batteries and Li-ion batteries, and how to determine which has the best TCO for your usage.

Boosting Whiskey Storage & Production Through Cutting-Edge Automation

Boosting Whiskey Storage & Production Through Cutting-Edge Automation

To meet rising demand for whiskey, a distiller needed to expand production capacity while improving safety and adapting to labor shortages. Their traditional, manual racking system couldn't support growth and posed safety risks, especially with employees sampling barrels at elevated levels.

Muratec proposed a custom, rack-supported building (RSB) with a high-density storage and Goods-to-Person (G2P) system, where barrels are delivered directly to operators. The custom system included a load handler for safer barrel sampling, 2-deep storage, and integrated cameras for remote inspections. The ASRS enabled barrel shuffling to manage environmental conditions, while HVAC stabilized temperature and humidity, with seismic dampening for earthquake protection.
