MoleCar
  One level storage and retrieval system. A major manufacture of spooled wire products needed a system for spool storage and sortation prior to shipping. The photo only shows a small portion of the system set up for run off. The actual system had twenty storage lanes on each side. The heart of the system is a “mole-car” that is contained in the main transfer car running between the storage lanes. The main car would be loaded by a fork truck operator on the receiving end and the load moved to the proper lane and then the mole car would deliver the load to the last open position in the lane. Controls allowed for input as to the items to be stored, truck loading sequence and then for removal in the proper order.
