For Flemming Brandt, production manager at Schmitz Cargobull, running a profitable and good business is more about safety and good working conditions for his team, and less about just saving time.
Schmitz Cargobull Denmark in Padborg the Danish plant runs a bit differently than other subsidiaries in Europe. Production of spare tyres for about 1500 trailers, and changes between normal, M+S and winter tyres for their large fleet of leased trailers on Danish roads, is all done centrally from Padborg. This gives a flow of at least 5-6.000 tyres and wheels annually.
When Flemming Brandt started in his job, unloading a truck could take 3 persons the better part of two hours. “But the guys were worn out afterwards” he explains. “So, when we found Just Easy Tools online, and saw a demonstration of the Easy Stacker 1200, it was not that hard a decision”.
Having the Easy Stacker 1200 installed, it proved far more versatile than they imagined at Schmitz Cargobull. “I am going to think the Easy Stacker into our future design of the plant” Flemming Brandt states and continues: “Besides from the unloading and loading, it benefits us in so many ways”.
“Today it takes one man only 45 to 60 minutes unloading a truck – a significant improvement. Also, stacks are more even now, and time is also saved moving tyres in the production”, according to Flemming Brandt.
“Another example is the new tyres, which are always stacked – previously on pallets, which were time consuming and unsafe. However, today all stacks are moved easily and faster with the Easy Stacker 1200. Also tyres on pallets or in cages dances around on the forks, if the forklift hits an uneven spot. With the Easy Stacker 1200 the tyres are always in full control.”
For Flemming Brandt - safety, profitability, and quality of life for everyone at the plant - all goes hand in hand…
“... We are now working faster - and much safer!“ - Ants Astover - Sepa Rehv OÜ, Estonia
” Overall, using the Easy Stacker have given us at least a 20-25% timesaving on handling tyres!” - Henrik Nielsen, Vulkan Dæk A/s, Denmark
Safe and efficient tyre handling
Just Easy Tools specialises in optimising tyre handling processes - and has successfully delivered Easy Stacker solutions to service workshops, tyre manufacturers, tyre distributors and the retreading industry worldwide.
The Easy Stacker 800, Easy Stacker 1200 and Easy Stacker 1600 from Just Easy Tools are designed for safe and efficient handling of tyres and wheels of various sizes, with a focus on a safe working environment and optimisation of storage capacity.
With a firm grip, they can stack and handle stacks of tyres with movements optimised for tight spaces in warehouses, production areas, trucks, and containers.
Safe working environment
An Easy Stacker takes over most manual processes when lifting and moving tyres and wheels - significantly reducing strain and the risk of operator injury.
With its unique and firm grip on the tyres, an Easy Stacker provides safe handling of the heavy tyres and wheels when they need to be picked or placed in the warehouse. The secure grip on the tyres eliminates, for example, the risk of dropping the tyres from a height.
Optimising storage capacity
Due to the unique design and secure grip on the tyres, an Easy Stacker can place stacks of tyres very close together without the use of pallets or other systems that can "waste" space, resulting in optimal use of storage capacity.
