Full steam ahead - Scottish distillery with Grundfos
There’s steam and there’s high-quality steam. There are pump solutions and intelligent pump solution...
A poorly-designed production area can increase waiting, as it means operators have further to walk to fetch tools or components. While they’re walking around the factory, a machine will be waiting for maintenance, or a production line waiting to restart. The problem is made even worse if the operator arrives at a location to discover a tool is missing.
These may seem like separate problems, but there is a single solution. Rationalising the workspace and eliminating the problem of missing tools can all be achieved through the use of a Bott workstation incorporating Perfo overlays – otherwise known as ‘showdowboards.’
Tailored and configured to optimise efficiency, a Bott workstation can incorporate safe, secure and effective storage for whatever tools and components – specialist or otherwise – are needed for tasks performed in that area. Everything is readily to hand, easily accessible and – because of the clever ‘shadowboard’ system – in the right place.
The Perfo panels with overlays can be fitted to the backs of benches, to racks or trolleys, cupboard doors and fitted directly to walls – basically, anywhere that’s convenient and makes tools easier to access.
The tool hooks, power tool holders, spanner holders, boxes, shelves and parts trays available mean that almost anything that needs keeping ready for use can be safely and conveniently stored. The shadowboards also mean that if a tool hasn’t been replaced after use, it’s quick and easy to spot what’s missing.
Available pre-configured with standard tool shapes or for customers to create their own custom tool shapes, shadowboards are an integral element of an efficient, tailor-made workspace.
Working with your local ERIKS Service Centre, Bott can apply 40 years of UK manufacturing expertise and storage experience to create a tools and components solution for any working environment. In fact, the company claims they’ve never had a request for a storage solution that they weren’t able to be. And with a Bott Perfo fully-equipped workstation, not even time gets lost.
