Abstract

Too many manufacturers still think of materials handling in terms of the odd truck or conveyor. Others are apt to treat handling systems as an afterthought in factory design. Against a background of general industrial recovery, Ken Gooding looks at the handling products and systems which can contribute so much to cutting overheads.
