Topper Industrial is exhibiting at MODEX 2016, the largest expo for the manufacturing and supply chain industries from April 4-7, 2016. Attendees visiting Topper Industrial at booth #647 will learn about fork truck free material handling equipment.

Fork truck free initiatives are increasingly popular as sufficient data has revealed the true cost of fork truck ownership. Where purchasing managers are focused on lowest cost acquisition, operations managers must account for the extensive budgetary requirements in maintaining the fork truck fleet.

Several manufacturers are implementing material handling products known as "mother/daughter" (M/D) cart delivery systems to improve operations. Topper Industrial, maker of M/D cart delivery systems, typically has two small carts within a larger cart. Bulk parts can be manually or forklift-loaded onto the two daughter carts in the stock or storage area. One or two complete M/D frames can be towed by a tugger to line-side positions and "dropped" for the assemblers to use, or daughter carts are removed and positioned for use in the cells.

Topper Industrial, leader in the material handling equipment industry, has been an advocate of lean manufacturing principles for years. Recently the ergonomic industrial cart leader moved beyond kaizen events and ad hoc lean manufacturing events and created a comprehensive continuous process improvement program, implementing lean manufacturing within the entire company operation.
