Movement & Material Handling
Advanced Solutions for Material Handling, Storage and Internal Transportation
Smart Movement & Handling Solutions
Efficient material movement and storage solutions play a key role in maintaining continuous and reliable production. By providing controlled storage for both raw and fired products, these systems help separate glazing, finishing and sorting processes from kiln operations, ensuring greater flexibility and efficiency throughout the production line.
Storage systems also act as a buffer, allowing the kiln to operate continuously with a consistent and optimized material flow.
Depending on the product stage and production requirements, different handling, transportation and storage technologies can be implemented. Raw products can be carefully stored and transported using roller boxes, while fired products can be managed through roller box systems or metal platform stacking solutions.
These integrated solutions provide safe, precise and efficient material handling, helping manufacturers optimize production flow, reduce interruptions and improve overall operational performance.
Production & Storage
BIBOX
BIBOX is a high-capacity storage and handling system designed for the temporary storage of raw ceramic products before firing. Using roller boxes and automated handling, BIBOX provides a flexible buffer between the glazing line and the kiln. Its FIFO management system helps maintain a continuous and organized material flow while allowing production lines to operate independently. The system is particularly suitable for production environments requiring frequent product changes, offering efficient storage management, high flexibility and reliable material handling.
BT982
BT982 is a flexible storage system designed for the efficient management of fired ceramic products. The system is suitable for different product sizes and types, providing high productivity and maximum flexibility in production and storage operations. Its integration with automated handling systems enables efficient product movement and organized warehouse management. BT982 also allows greater flexibility when changing products, helping manufacturers maintain a continuous production flow while simplifying storage and handling operations.
Automated Material Handling
L.G.V. – Laser Guided Vehicles
Febex provides advanced automated material handling solutions designed to optimize the movement of raw materials, ceramic products and pallets throughout the production environment.
Laser Guided Vehicles (LGVs) enable precise and reliable transportation without the need for fixed routes, providing greater flexibility in production and storage operations. By integrating automated handling systems with storage areas and production lines, Febex helps manufacturers maintain a continuous material flow while reducing manual handling and improving operational efficiency.
Our LGV solutions can be adapted to different handling requirements, from the transportation of large ceramic slabs to the movement of raw materials and finished products.
Key Applications:
BIG MOVER – Automated handling of large ceramic slabs
Flatbeds LGV – Internal transportation of raw materials and production units
Pallets LGV – Automated movement of pallets and finished products
With intelligent navigation, high positioning accuracy and flexible integration with production systems, Febex automated handling solutions help create a safer, more efficient and better-connected production environment.
