Another Great Dimension 4 Install
MTS Systems are excellent for making your existing benches more productive while on a budget.
As we continue looking at ways to improve the productivity of your manufacturing and assembly areas with an eye to economy, our Multi-Task Systems pop to the top of the list.
A Multi-Task System (MTS) is rigid upper structure for stand alone workbenches. It enables you to configure above-the-worksurface storage and accessories into an organized, task-oriented working environment. Because it attaches to the worksurface it maintains the relative position of all your gear, regardless of adjustments to workbench height.
Increase the functionality of your workbenches and improve productivity with IAC's Multi-Task Systems.
Features:
· Heavy gauge verticals and tie beam at top of frame system
· Half-length options are easy and convenient to adjust shift to shift if needed
· Slots are on 1" increments center to center
· If worksurface is adjustable, options move accordingly
· Unlimited flexibility in arranging workstations to fit changing requirements
· Three posts provide two side-by-side accessory mounting areas
· Options can be aligned or independently adjusted for maximum flexibility
· Retrofits to most other workbenches
· Smaller size frames easily mount to larger benches
Stepping up, IAC Industries produces the most highly-regarded modular industrial workbenches, also referred to as workstations because of their level of sophistication. IAC's premium models are the Dimension 4 Series workstations. Because of their modular design, extruded aluminum uprights and cantilever legs, the Dimension 4 can be configured into any shaped cell to accommodate a wide range of work flows. They are as equally at home in industrial manufacturing and electronic assembly environments as they are in diagnostic and research medical labs. Our LAN Stations are workstations for the digital environment. These specialty workbenches are designed for computers, monitors and variety of electronic instrumentation. They feature integrated cable management and a series of accessories designed to keep your electronics organized and most productive. The Pro Series can be called the workstations of industrial workbenches. Designed for individual users, they offer adjustable height worksurfaces, both manual and electrically actuated, cantilever legs, and broad range of suspended drawer and cabinet options.
The most popular versions of these industrial workbenches, workstations and accessories may be ordered through our Quick Ship program which promises shipment within just five days of your order.

Companies setting up Lean Manufacturing have found that the QUIXXSMART system tools can be quickly implemented to get started and put an idea into an application easily and very quickly. The QUIXXSMART system will allow for a continued attitude of improvement (Kaizen)*
The QUIXXSMART systems have been recognized as ideal tools for succesful introduction of lean manufacturing systems.
*Kaizen (Japanese for "continuous improvement") is a Japanese philosophy that focuses on continuous improvement throughout all aspects of life. When applied to the workplace, Kaizen activities continually improve all functions of a business, from manufacturing to management and from the CEO to the assembly line workers. By improving standardized activities and processes, Kaizen aims to eliminate waste (see Lean Manufacturing). Kaizen was first implemented in several Japanese businesses during the country's recovery after World War II, including Toyota, and has since spread to businesses throughout the world.
New Power Drive System Usages
Operation: The power drive unit is designed to operate between two of Quixxsmart's roller channel. The power slide belt will be in contact with the bottom of the product or package that is being moved. The edges of the package/ product would ride on the 2 non-powered sections of roller track.
Overview: The power drive system consists of a modular conveyor contained in a Quixxsmart Structures 35 x 40 mm aluminum roller channel. Power is transmitted by a circular .250" cross section urethane belt riding in a semicircular groove on the circumference of the nylon rollers ride on polished stainless steel axles. This belt is industry proven and is field weldable.
Mounting to the conveyor legs or frame is achieved with "U" shaped mounting saddles.
Roller Track Splice: The length of the power drive system can be easily modified using QSPL splices to extend the track. Lengths of the roller channel can be cut with a carbide blade miter saw.
Usages: This system can be used for the handling of containers, for the transfer of fixtures in custom manufacturing or assembly cells or for pick cells where the power drive belt would be mounted to flow racks and move containers through order fulfillment. Please call with your specific requirements.
Electrical: Motive power is a variable speed drive fractional horse power DC gear motor driving a power drive pulley.
This brushless motor features silent operation, high torque and compact size (3" dia. and 4.5" long). The power drive motor requires a 20A 120V circuit and can be plugged into an outlet. The variable speed drive is included with the motor drive unit.

The optional slide guide P/N SLG is extruded from a high-density polyethylene for smooth carton glow. It is designed to provide maximum space utilization with the smallest footprint.




When the decision was made to move distribution into the plant the Distribution Supervisor and Production Planner sprang into action. But they did not act alone; this was as a team success story. In order to accomplish their goal, the team had to visit a similar distribution center within their own company, using that plant’s successful distribution center as a model.
Back in their own plant they had to rearrange work areas to find ample floor space for distribution. They were able to accomplish this task by creating Quixx Smart Structures flow racks (in photo) to regroup products into slow and fast moving categories and began eliminating excess inventories. Within 3 months they had a fully operational distribution center.
Since this implementation they have been able to move excessive inventories, shorten lead times and improve on-time deliveries, freeing the distribution planners to expedite hot orders and last minute order changes and can now give customers more aggressive lead times.
