Synopsis

Maintaining a smooth flow of materials in transit is a growing problem for both industry and society from both an economic and an organizational point of view. The management issue of the development and improvement of existing materials handling systems, and the need for better data as a basis for new investment by industry is investigated here. The book is based on experience in Sweden and provides an up-to-date analysis of the requirements for all concerned with materials handling, from the basic equipment to actual case histories and offers guidance to industrial and technological managers on how to avoid costly mistakes in the purchase and investment of funds in materials handling equipment. It also offers guidance on different storage equipment components and techniques and the varied types of locations with which managers have to deal (terminals, ports, wholesale depots and warehouses, stockrooms and distribution centres, world wide). The book is intended for the use of manufacturers and processors in the materials handling technology area.
