At this year's Battery Show, Dorner and Garvey Corporation showcased the future of asset management solutions for EV and battery manufacturers. Dave Giffels, Dorner's Business Development Manager, and Jacob Garvey from Garvey Corporation shared new initiatives poised to increase efficiency and productivity in the growing EV industry. These advanced transport and storage systems are designed to meet the specific challenges of modern battery production and EV systems.
Dorner, under the Columbus McKinnon umbrella, showed us a range of products, including the standout DualMove Pallet System and Edge Roller Technology. These systems provide energy-efficient, cost-effective solutions for transporting materials throughout the manufacturing process. With customizable features such as positioning and positioning, they are ideal for battery manufacturers looking to streamline their production lines.
A key highlight of Dorner's contributions is Columbus McKinnon's recent acquisition of monratec, a company specializing in fully autonomous shuttle-based transportation systems. This advanced technology reduces the need for pneumatic positioning, maximizes energy consumption, and improves safety with sensor-driven functions.
At the time, Garvey Corporation's Infinity accumulation system was designed to keep EV battery production running smoothly. By allowing products to flow continuously, this system has helped manufacturers increase efficiency by 30%. Together, Dorner and Garvey are setting a new standard for how material handling can drive productivity and innovation in the electric vehicle space.
