Case Study - McCain Foods |
| Challenge |
As a three-shift frozen foods
business, McCain Foods’ 20 electric lift trucks
required three batteries per truck. In order to
maintain uptime, McCain needed to store the
resulting 60 batteries in their Appleton, Wis.,
facility.
|
| Solution |
Yale Materials Handing – Green
Bay (YMH – Green Bay) helped maximize McCain’s
lift truck fleet capabilities by gathering data
to better understand their needs. As a result,
McCain switched from conventional battery
charging to opportunity battery charging.
|
| Impact |
With assistance from YMH – Green
Bay, McCain moved from three lift truck
batteries per truck to one, eliminated 10
battery chargers and reduced the facility’s
total battery storage from 60 to 20 batteries.
