Services
Conveyor Systems
Our conveyor systems optimize material flow in warehouses and manufacturing facilities. We engineer customized solutions including motor-driven roller conveyors, belt conveyors, and 24V MDR systems. These systems reduce manual labor, increase throughput, and improve safety while handling loads up to 3,000 lbs. Applications span e-commerce fulfillment, automotive assembly, and food processing operations.
Storage Racking
We design high-capacity storage systems featuring selective racks, push-back racks, and cantilever systems. Our solutions maximize vertical space while maintaining OSHA compliance. Systems include wire partitions, pallet supports, and seismic reinforcements for industries requiring secure, organized storage of heavy or bulky items.
Pallet Rack Repair
Certified Damotech repair services restore damaged pallet racking systems without warehouse shutdowns. Our inserts reinforce upright columns to withstand 6x impact loads while maintaining structural integrity. Repairs include engineered stamped drawings and lifetime guarantees for long-term safety and compliance.
Safety Systems
We implement OSHA-compliant safety solutions including removable guardrails, wheel restraint systems, and wire partitions. Our SRC360 safety rails and GMR Power Chocks prevent accidents during loading operations. Systems integrate with dock levelers and alarm packages for comprehensive facility protection.
Material Lifts
Our vertical reciprocating conveyors (VRCs) and scissor lifts move materials between elevations efficiently. Partnering with Pentalift, we provide hydraulic and mechanical lifting platforms for heavy loads in manufacturing, warehousing, and distribution centers. Systems prioritize safety with overload protection and emergency stop features.
