Omaha, NE (4/23/2020) – Riekes Equipment and Pallet Shuttle Automation are pleased to announce they have entered a partnership to provide automated warehouse solutions to the manufacturing, food and beverage, cold storage and warehousing industries throughout the Midwest Region of the United States.
“We’re excited to combine our consultative, solution-driven approach with Pallet Shuttle’s innovative and breakthrough warehouse-automation technology. Together, we’ll offer solutions that provide greater profitability and productivity to our customers,” said Dave Harnett, Riekes Executive Vice President. “With robotics and automation playing an increasingly important role in our customers’ success, we recognize the need to proactively seek out partners with innovative solutions that can help our customers reach their productivity and financial goals. We are excited to partner with Pallet Shuttle and to share their great solution with our client base.”
Through this partnership companies can take advantage of the simplicity and cost-effectiveness of the Pallet Shuttle® “Omni-Directional” automated storage and retrieval system. Leveraging the computer-controlled retrieval system allows companies to automatically place and retrieve loads from storage locations with precision, accuracy and speed. Not only does this improve inventory tracking, it also reduces warehouse accidents by decreasing the need for redundant manual labor in the inventory retrieval process. The Pallet Shuttle system eliminates the need for warehouse aisles by replacing large areas of shelving and dramatically increasing the cubic space which is vital to profitability.
Steve Cappella, President of Pallet Shuttle Automation, LLC says, “We have selected Riekes Equipment as our Pallet Shuttle Midwest partner based upon an outstanding reputation in the marketplace and their extensive parts and service capability and support.”
Fully and Semi-Automated Pallet Shuttle systems can be installed new, implemented alongside racking systems or even replace existing conventional pallet racks.
