      • Long Profiles - Aluminium and PVC

      • The expert engineering at the heart of CTI Systems' picking and preparation, storage, handling and transport solutions ensures that - from the store to the production line - the flow of even the longest aluminium or PVC profiles is safe, smooth, efficient and highly cost-effective – whatever your application.
          • Lift and Run Dynamic Storage System

          • CTI Systems has pioneered lift and run dynamic storage technology for long profiles. Designed for facilities where a significant number of different product lines have to be organised and processed, sophisticated lift and run solutions are an ideal choice for production sites where batches of profile have to be prepared for trimming. The systems are particularly suitable for the manufacturing and construction sectors.

            Consisting of a highly innovative combination of honeycomb racking served by high speed shuttles and goods lifts, lift and run storage systems deliver ultra-efficient long profile handling performance and optimum flow speeds to ensure minimum ‘dead time’ at every stage of the production process.

          • Honeycomb Storage System

          • A well-proven solution used by companies operating across a wide range of industry sectors worldwide, high density honeycomb systems allow large quantities of long items to be stored safely and efficiently. And, because honeycomb solutions provide direct access to the product, the storage and retrieval process is highly efficient, which makes this type of system the ideal option at facilities where optimum cycle times are required.

            The main characteristics of a honeycomb storage system are:

            • High storage density
            • A capacity of 800 to 8000 storage locations
            • Optimum throughput rates
          • Stacked Storage System

          • A stacked storage system is a cost-efficient, compact, simple – yet highly effective – method of storing long profiles in bundles or within various types of cassette. Suitable for manufacturing facilities in all industry sectors, it is an ideal solution for small or medium-sized storage and dispatch systems.

            Typically, systems are built 5 to7 levels high and most projects are not restricted by the weight of the products to be stored. Ground level picking locations are accessed directly, while upper levels are reached by a shuttle that automatically raises or lowers the operator platform to the correct position within the system from where pre-programmed order batches can be retrieved in safety and comfort.

            Warehouse management system (WMS) software interfaces with the user’s manufacturing system or ERP software to control inventory movement and organise product flow to optimise storage and retrieval performance.

                • Handling and Transport Systems

                • Suit every client’s unique needs

                  The materials handling equipment and intralogistics processes deployed to transport essential component parts or goods within the factory building are fundamental to the efficient performance of any busy production facility.

                  Internal handling and transport solutions can be either floor-based or mounted overhead. Both types offer benefits and the system that best suits your organisation’s needs will depend upon a number of factors.

                  For example, while systems based on ground-level technology tend to require a smaller financial commitment than overhead handling methods, they can take up valuable floor space. Meanwhile, because they make use of the free space below a building’s ceiling or roof, overhead systems optimise a site’s footprint, but can cost more to install than floor-level schemes.

                  CTI Systems offer a choice of ground-level and overhead solutions to suit every client’s unique needs.

                  • Stacked Storage Systems

                  • Because no racking structure is required, floor-stacked storage schemes are a cost-efficient solution. Loads are simply stacked at floor level – one on top of another or in cassettes. Depending on the product, stacking heights of 6 or 7 levels can be achieved with this highly compact solution – which is widely used at facilities where floor space is restricted. CTI Systems' warehouse management software ensures access to the required load.
                  • Floor Storage Systems

                  • When a building’s floor-to-eaves height is too restricted to accommodate high-bay storage technology, CTI Systems can design automated storage systems that store materials directly on to the facility’s floor.

                        Often referred to as ‘process cranes’, automatic cranes can be built around a choice of overhead, interlocking or travelling crane design, but they are fully integrated within the production process.

                        With PLC-controlled operation, automatic cranes are usually fitted with a custom-built grab attachment, interlocking systems, indexing units or other devices to suit the required application.

                      • Manipulators and other handling devices

                      • A range of handling devices that enable loads to be transported, rotated, lifted or turned can be supplied to feed and remove materials, components to and from production machinery, furnaces, presses etc. with precision and maximum on-site safety.
                    • Aircraft Manufacturing and Maintenance

                    • From the assembly of independent components to the efficient storage of aircraft parts, CTI Systems offer individual and flexible concepts and systems that ensure that aircraft are serviced safely, economically and in the most time-efficient way possible.
                        • Commercial Vehicles – Material Flow, Painting and Assembly

                        • Every manufacturer of commercial vehicles – from semi-trailers, lorries, vans and buses to agricultural and construction equipment – has to move bulky and heavy component parts through the factory.

                          And, with the need to maximise output efficiency now more important than ever before, automated processing techniques that reduce component travel times and cut production costs are seen as one of the keys to competitive vehicle production.
