Mother Daughter Carts
Streamline material flows with a modular cart solution that’s ideal for picking and replenishment. Mother Daughter Carts from BHS combine two related products: A tuggable, train-ready Mother Cart and one or more nested Daughter Carts.
This design allows Mother Daughter Carts to solve two material handling challenges at once. Mother Daughter Carts can be hitched to tuggers, creating a high-volume central line for material flow. Then Daughter Carts roll from the tugger train to the point of use.
A tugger train with nested carts minimizes round trips, bringing value to a wide variety of material handling scenarios:
- In manufacturing, operators can pre-load Daughter Carts for effective just-in-time line-feeding.
- At distribution centers, Mother Daughter Carts ensure a constant flow of products to and from packing areas.
- In reverse logistics, operators load Daughter Carts with returns or damaged goods, then consolidate them onto Mother Carts for the trip to returns processing or scrapping workstations.
- Food and chemical manufacturers can follow a similar process to optimize the removal of waste and byproducts.
Custom Daughter Carts ensure optimal gains in both safety and efficiency by matching your use case. Load one or multiple Daughter Carts onto a single Mother Cart. Choose Daughter Carts designed to handle pallets, bins, bulk loads, or anything else. Roller surfaces, ball-transfer shelves, and other specialized tabletops ensure seamless integration with existing material handling systems.
