UNEX Manufacturing Introduces New Online Flow Cell Configurator at Assembly Show 2018 In Booth 1119

Lakewood, NJ - October 17, 2018 - UNEX Manufacturing, Inc., the trusted industry leader in innovative order picking solutions, will introduce its new Online Configurator for Flow Cell in Booth 1119 at the upcoming Assembly Show, which takes place Oct. 23 - 25 in Rosemont, IL. This easy-to-use solution offers users the ability to select pre-configured units or design Flow Cells from scratch. UNEX Flow Cells are ideal for line-side assembly workstations because of their modular, flexible, and structurally-sound design that helps eliminate waste and boost productivity within assembly operations.

"With regulatory pressures tightening, customers wanting more customization and tariffs on materials and imports causing a rise in prices, the need to utilize lean principles within assembly and manufacturing plants is more critical than ever," says Brian C. Neuwirth, VP Sales & Marketing, UNEX Manufacturing. "That's why we are introducing the Flow Cell configurator at the Assembly Show. No one knows our customers' operations better than the customer themselves, and our Configurator allows them to design a solution that meets their specific needs and creates agile solutions to help them overcome these challenges."

Using the UNEX Flow Cell Configurator design tool, users can design the equipment that fits their own unique specifications, or select from a dozen pre-configured units with no engineering, AutoCAD, or SolidWorks experience required. Once users select the unit they want, they choose the width, depth and height of their Flow Cell Unit. Span-Track flow options and accessories, such as handles, pick trays, casters and workbenches can be added to make the best configuration for each unique operation.

Designs can be viewed in 3D and rotated for visual inspection. When the online configuration form is complete and submitted, UNEX will send a bill of materials that features the design. UNEX Flow Cells are proven to increase space utilization by 50 percent, reduce reaching and improve ergonomics, keep inventory organized and off the floor, and boost productivity up to 30 percent.
