Material Handling Equipments (MHE) are actually equipments that facilitate the handling of materials, which refers to the movement and storage of materials in the facility.
For better understanding, the video below shows the material handling equipment- Forklift trucks by Hyundai. Forklift truck is one of the many material handling equipments.
Importance of Material Handling :
Material handling is important as it is the key to warehouse productivity. When materials in the warehouse are being managed well, there will be an increase in efficiency and thus increase productivity. This is where MHE comes to place.
On the other hand, without MHE, it will eventually lead to poor material handling. Some of the poor material handling effects include confusion on product storage, too much walking, cluttered aisles, lack of standardisation, as well as high losses and damages.
Guidelines for Basic Handling
- Standardise equipment by using equipment that can be deployed as many areas as possible.
- Maximise continuous flow rather than intermittent or one-way flow.
- Focus on handling rather than stationary
- Minimise ratio of dead-weight to payload of handling equipment and not wasting unnecessary capacity of equipment.
- Use gravity flow if possible rather than trigger on electricity.
As mentioned in the blog description that we will be focusing on MHE, we hope to create a better understanding for our readers regarding the different types of MHE. As there are many equipments, our group decided to classify them by their different uses so that the readers will have a clearer view.
