When Container Stuffing gets tough, the tough bring in a C-LoaderThis is an update on the first C-Loader sale in Prince Rupert, Canada.
By: David Haywood Auburn, WA—(August 16, 2011) – Six months ago CSL installed and commissioned its first operational C-Loader on site at a major Canadian Transloader, Quickload, in Prince Rupert, British Columbia. Quickload has used the C-Loader to load finished lumber into ocean containers for export. The C-Loader dramatically increased Quickload’s loading efficiency and productivity while reducing collateral damage to both product and containers. The C-Loader is specifically designed to load lumber or palletized goods into containers. As forklifts load an entire 55-60,000 lbs. on the ruggedly constructed load platform, the C-Loaders’ built in load scale and balance system allows the operator to control the weight and balance to within desired limits. Then the load is transferred into the container in one smoothly controlled operation lasting less than 4 minutes. Further design advantages of the C- Loader are that it minimizes collateral damage to containers or to the product and eliminates the heavy maintenance costs incurred by using forklifts in an application for which they were not designed; one of the key uncontrolled costs in this business. The C-Loader can maintain or increase container output while reducing costs by 50%. It can transfer an entire load of (55,000 lbs. gross) into a container in 10 minutes (full cycle), less than 4 minutes just for load transfer. See the video at http://www.youtube.com/ “Quickload’ Since the Fairview Terminal opening in 2007, Quickload has expanded its business from simply examining containers at Watson Island to owning a state-of-the- Container Stuffers is a design and manufacturing company that builds general cargo and log loading equipment that dramatically reduces the time to load a truck or shipping container in 4minutes or less. The company designed their equipment with the vision of completing the revolution that Malcom McLean started by revolutionizing the way that ships are loaded. CSL’s K-Loader and C-Loader eliminate the need for a forklift driver to enter a closed space protecting the driver from dangerous Carbon Dioxide fumes.
