Product Spotlight – Corrugated Carts

Comments Off on Product Spotlight – Corrugated Carts

Back in 2013, our company was created after recognizing the need for durable and modular equipment in our own manufacturing facility. Seeing the need for these products beyond our walls, we began to offer our innovative solutions to other manufacturers. Our customizable plant floor systems quickly caught on because they have capabilities unlike any others on the market.

The corrugated cart is one of the many products that was originally designed to solve a problem in our own facility. To make this happen, the team at BUILT took the existing modular material handling cart design and tweaked them. Using existing and proven design methods, the engineering team began creating a hybrid product line to fit exactly what our operations team needed.

The Problem

The need for an effective way to organize and transport corrugated boxes for packaging.

The Criteria

The cart had to be fully mobile, lightweight, and durable, and it needed to be corrugated to be used for packaging.

Brainstorming and Design

The design team at BUILT quickly went to work to develop this corrugated cart for our operations team. A few meetings and CAD data provided the team with the necessary details needed. Once the initial criteria and ideas were set, the engineering team went into designing this solution. Utilizing proven designs and tweaking them with these requirements resulted in a product design that is exactly what the team needed. This product is something that we at BUILT are proud to display.

Providing a solution for any customer is something that fits well in the BUILT Systems wheelhouse. The team is always excited to collaborate with teams to come up with products that meet the needs of the end-user. Contact us today to learn more about how BUILT Systems can help you!

Product Spotlight – Medical Storage Racks

Comments Off on Product Spotlight – Medical Storage Racks

At the beginning of the COVID-19 Pandemic, the team at BUILT Systems knew that we would have to step up and help the essential workers on the front lines in any way that they could. With material handling and product movement being a specialty of BUILT Systems, we were approached by a medical facility in Michigan that had a need for mobile racks suited specifically for the medical industry. Taking this pandemic very seriously, the team at BUILT Systems jumped at the opportunity to help.

The Problem

The need for a variety of mobile racks for the medical industry that would stand up to the rigorous use and chemicals used in the medical field.

The Criteria

The racks had to be fully mobile yet able to lock into place when needed. They needed to be lightweight yet able to hold up to 1500lbs. They needed to have multiple shelves with stainless steel surfaces that were easily washable.

Brainstorming and Design

The start of this project and partnership posed some additional challenges because of the stay home orders that were mandated throughout most of the country. The sales and design team at BUILT began the design discussions using virtual meetings and multiple phone conference calls. Meeting with multiple team members from their facility and using screen sharing as the new normal for communication, the small details were discussed and settled on, giving the design team a clear path to follow.

Because mobile material movement is not something new to BUILT, we were able to use several existing designs and morph them into the basic framework of a storage rack. With our in-house abilities of laser cutting and brake press, we had no problems creating the stainless-steel surfaces needed for these racks.

The final product that was delivered to the customer was exactly what they wanted. Once the products were placed into their temporary locations, the team at this medical facility took pictures and sent them back to the team. They expressed how impressed and excited they were about the mobility these racks had for their size. Knowing that we were able to aid in this pandemic with this simple storage solution made the whole team at BUILT grateful for the opportunity. This set of products is something that we at BUILT are proud to display.

Product Spotlight – Transfer Cart

Comments Off on Product Spotlight – Transfer Cart

When presented with any problem, the engineering team at BUILT Systems is always ready to find a solution.

At the start of the current pandemic, the team was presented with a problem that required them to dig into the creative side of their brains to figure out a way to solve the problem quickly and safely.

The Problem

Transfer loads of up to 500lbs from waist height to shoulder height (24in stroke)

The Criteria

The system needed to be mobile, easy to use, and have a simple one-button actuation for the controls. It also needed cordless operation (battery-powered), and to be safe and reliable.

Brainstorming and Design

The team at BUILT dove right in, using multiple virtual meetings and screen sharing events with each other and the customer to dial in the finite details. The team simultaneously began contacting a local source to aide in the cordless battery system. Partnering with VOLTA Power Systems, the BUILT team began the conversation of what this system needed to accomplish. Once the initial criteria and ideas were set, the engineering team went headfirst into the design. 26 design hours later, the result was a lift transfer system that had never been done before at BUILT Systems. Using our standard actuators combined with our patented glide system and some ingenuity, they were able to create a system that doubled the stroke length of our standard systems while at the same time, double the speed of the lift. The result proved to be a product that we at BUILT are proud to display.

Providing a solution for this specific customer in these uncertain times was something that fit well within the BUILT Systems product spectrum, and we could not be more honored and proud to have helped. Contact us today to learn more about how BUILT Systems can help you!
