NECI Provides a Smooth Ride for Customer
Satisfaction
Intralox,
a modular plastic belt manufacturer in Harahan, LA, needed a
way to transport pallets and carts from the ground level up to
the second floor, where they could then be passed through a
door opening. Robert LePayre of Intralox had worked with
Nelson Equipment Company before, and contacted the company for
a solution. Nelson President Mark Nelson and Sales Engineer
Jonathan Thorne evaluated the products being moved, the
operating environment, operating cycles, safety requirements
and the overall expectations of the customer in order to meet
Intralox's needs. The Wil-Lift machine from Wildeck did just
that.
With
the ability to customize products based upon application,
Wildeck was able to work with Nelson and Thorne to build a
Wil-Lift hydraulic straddle lift for the tight operating
space. The 6 ft. wide by 5 ft. deep platform went from a
vertical lift gate on the ground level up to a double door on
the upper level, operating in sync with safety controls. The
machine allows a smooth transition of product from one level
to the next without disrupting forklift traffic in the area,
despite the pallet-racking to the immediate right of the unit
and additional obstructions to the left.
NECI's
ability to evaluate the customer's needs, coupled with
Wildeck's ability to customize its products, gave Intralox the
solution it needed to comfortably maintain its daily
operations in the tight workspace.

Hytrol PLEZD Accumulating Belt Conveyor
Hytrol's
model PLEZD is a heavy-duty plastic belt accumulation
conveyor, ideal for accumulating heavy unitized or palletized
loads. It combines the intelligence of the EZLogic
Accumulation System with the efficiency of the EZDrive System.

convey loads considered nonconveyable with conventional
roll-to-roll conveyor, such as flexible plastic pallets,
footed pallets and mis-oriented conventional wooden pallets.
The PLEZD also features:
- Shaft Mounted Drives, no drive chains to maintain
- 13 in. minimum top-of-belt elevation
- Capacity up to 2,000 lbs. per zone
- Soft Start/Soft Stop and Variable Frequency Drive
options available
- Zone Lengths from 30 in. to 120 in.
The
Hytrol model PLEZD provides greater productivity and more
throughput of product in operation. For more information,

- specifically engineered for fork truck
protection
- prefabricated, eliminating all on-site core
drilling, cutting, welding or painting
