Do you work in a bodyshop and need to speed up the movement of vehicles between work areas by reducing downtime?
The lean car mover is a modern handling system, consisting of trolleys and tracks, used to move vehicles quickly and easily within the bodyshop or repair centre. Thanks to the ability to slide the vehicle, this system is a valuable aid for moving vehicles between work areas safely.
By moving the vehicle in the traditional way, by starting it, the time taken has a considerable impact on the total time spent working on the vehicle, whereas with lean car mover the time taken is shortened.
How to make shifts more efficient
The use of a lean car mover makes it possible to drastically cut vehicle shifting times by transforming the bodyshop into an efficient facility, concentrating the work of the operators on the vehicle to be repaired while maintaining maximum safety.
With the lean car mover you are able to move cars from one stage of the repair process to the next. A cycle that includes the stages of primer application, masking, painting, drying and polishing can all take place on the same production line. It is a solution that is tailor-made for body shops and dealerships that carry out from a minimum of eight repairs per day up to a virtually unlimited number, thanks to the modular system that allows the number of work zones and the type of equipment to be varied according to the customer’s weekly production targets.
How the lean car mover works
The lean car mover consists of a system of rails embedded in the pavement which keep the body safe, with no vehicles running inside; a set of light and robust trolleys allow a single operator to move the vehicle without difficulty, sliding it along the rails.
It is an efficient, user-friendly and high-precision system that can operate for a long time with very little maintenance.
The different working spaces must be organised in a longitudinal layout with side openings to allow the vehicles to be moved in line.
Lean car movers and efficient layouts improve productivity
Blowtherm takes great care in designing the layout of a coating plant in order to maximise efficiency and improve production processes.
All elements that make up the plant are designed to be perfectly integrated with each other and work in synergy to achieve excellent results.
