MMP Series

Mobile Material Positioners (MMP)

Compact Storage Systems series MMP’s are designed to eliminate or reduce non-vale material movement handling process. Productivity gains are at the heart of each MMP design for users. Compact support lean manufacturing principals our philosophy in our own manufacturing environment is as follows:

The greatest waste, is doing with great efficiency, that which should not be done at all.

Compact manufactures customized transfer cart technology. We provide our solution in:

  • Manual systems
  • Mechanical assist
  • Electric systems

Our design incorporates a low profile guidance rail then can be surface mounted or shall (3/8”) flush mount in the floor surface. This value of a low profile guidance rail is as follows:

  • Prevents “lock down” from current solutions such as floor mounted conveyor systems
  • Permits material handling to drive over the guidance rail
