Case Paper — Thriving in Philly

The answer to the dilemma came from within Case itself. They had a one-of-a-kind vertical lift designed and built. The lift enables employees to load skids via forklifts onto an in-feed conveyor. The skids are then moved to the second floor by a lift and then onto an out-feed conveyor.

"If we didn't have this lift, we wouldn't be here," admits Peter Schaffer. The lift can handle 240 skids per hour. "We only need to run it about four hours a day; it can do more than we ever need to do," he adds.
