Depending on the needs of the specific facility, monorails can be freestanding or ceiling-mounted. If your facility is dealing with multiple overhead obstructions, a freestanding system is ideal. But, since most Product Layout manufacturing facilities are dealing with narrow aisles and floor obstructions, a ceiling-mounted monorail is the most versatile and ergonomic way of streamlining your production process and improving flexibility.
monorail systems are an economic solution for almost any Product Layout facility and an excellent alternative for work areas that can’t be serviced by bridge cranes. These include facilities with hard-to-reach locations, buildings with high ceilings, or even for areas that require great layout flexibility. Monorails are ideal for production processes that require lifting and moving product along a fixed path, such as painting processes, moving raw materials from one work cell to another, or even warehouse to warehouse transfer. But, what makes them so unique for facilities utilizing the Product Layout Design is their incredible flexibility.
