Storage not off-the-shelf
Storage specialist Lista UK has gone a step beyond supplying standard equipment off the shelf by creating specialised storage solutions for pump manufacturer ITT Flygt’s new facility near Nottingham.
Lista created four self-contained maintenance stations – three of the same configuration and a larger one nearest the doors to handle larger incoming pumps.
Each station consists of Lista B 251 modular storage walls, workbenches and mobile drawer cabinets: and that’s where ‘standard’ descriptions end. The storage walls contain shelf filing units for documents, manuals, trays and miscellaneous items – as well as vertical cupboards to house the huge pulley chains and various oil lines, plus the clever use of flush computer screens on which to call up pump plans, for example.
Workbenches have pull-out drawers with all manner of tools in set layouts, and are topped with stainless steel surfaces adjacent to sockets and overhead lights. Mobile cabinets are a practical convenience to save engineers going back and forth to the station section.
