Over-the-Road Load Shift Investigative Case Study
10/19/2017

Event Description
Thursday, October 19th, 1:30pm-2:15pm EST

Eric Joneson
Vice President Marketing
Lansmont Corporation

 


A major brand owner was receiving feedback from their distribution facilities of abnormally high amounts of “dumped” loads upon arrival from their production facility. Dumped loads meant unit loads that completely tipped over during transport. This presentation will highlight some of the interesting investigative work that was initiated to determine whether abnormal dynamics were occurring during transport between the production facility and two specific distributors.

Takeaways:
• Effectiveness of playback video with audio, varying playback speeds to provide awareness of vibration variability during transport.
• Effects of normal braking on heavy unit loads.
• Impacts on material handling system due to improperly wrapped unit loads.
