Coors rates Joloda’s Hydraroll
February 1st 2005 For the last 16 years, Coors Brewers Ltd, located in Britain’s brewing capital, Burton-Upon-Trent, has been using Joloda’s Hydraroll Slip Chain System for unloading and transferring pallets of empty cans. The system was introduced to enhance efficiency – resulting in the reduction of the need for handling.
The Joloda Hydraroll Slip Chain system was acquired by the company in 1989 to maximise load types and reduce the amount of handling previously required from a forklift truck and operator. The Slip Chain has been “extremely reliable” according to Martin Cumpstone, packaging technical manager of Coors Brewers.
The Hydraroll Slip Chain system incorporates pneumatically activated rise and fall chain and roller track giving high speed accumulation and loading of full pallet loads for factory to warehouse short shuttle operations (less than 50km). The system’s integral powered loading dock/trailer combination allows freedom and flexibility to load and unload a wide variety of palletised goods in a speedy efficient manner with the minimum vehicle down time.
