Fixed pallet racks with staggered yokes - the solution for NedTrain
NedTrain Componentenbedrijf Tilburg is a company with a long history. The first recorded repair shop in the centre of Tilburg dates from 1868! NedTrain specializes in the servicing, maintenance and overhaul of rail-related equipment, including the reconditioning of train parts. The vehicle maintenance and repair shop moved from Tilburg town centre to Berkel-Enschot in 2011. Its here that NedTrain reconditions parts of train sets belonging to Dutch Rail (NS). This ranges from large and complex parts, such as pantographs and compressors, to smaller components, like tractor brakes. The company also includes a few production departments, specializing in pneumatics, electronics and engineering mechanics. The new branch in Berkel-Enschot comprises a 194.4 metre-long production unit with, behind it, two warehouses, a pallet warehouse and a block stacking warehouse. The two warehouses have a floor area of 4,627 m and 4,461 m respectively. And, besides that, there are other areas for offices and a company restaurant. For NedTrain, Stow has built a parts warehouse expressly tailored to the customers needs or preferences. The system is composed of standard fixed shelving with narrow aisles, in which the pallets (1.20 x 1.00m) stand transversely in the racks, resting on top hats (a kind of cross-beam). Reach trucks Thats how we let contracts. But another contributing factor, for sure, was the fact that wed collaborated with Stow three times already. And, each time, it was a positive experience. Major advantages are Stows great flexibility and adaptability said Halters. , He gives us a specific example: We still had many component parts of our old racks lying around. Some of those parts were still perfectly usable. So not everything was renewed just like that.
