Innovation through collaboration: QuickMOVE and Kersten
QuickMOVE and Kersten join forces for the latest generation of conveyor systems.
The world of intralogistics is all about efficiency, flexibility and quality.
The successful collaboration between QuickMOVE and Kersten shows how two experts join forces to deliver an innovative and high-quality solution to the logistics challenges of the future.
Evolution: a new generation of transport systems
QuickMOVE, known for its expertise in flexible intralogistics systems, offers customised solutions that are fully tailored to customers' specific requirements. ‘Our latest product is QuickMOVE Evolution, a transport system that can be fully adapted to the customer's desired routing thanks to its modular design,’ explains Peter Heppelmann, QuickMOVE's technical director. A key element of these conveyor systems are the curved sections. The system can not only transport horizontally, but also vertically and with tight bends. ‘We have been working with Kersten for years as a partner for the curved sections of our conveyor systems and we have continued this pleasant cooperation for QuickMOVE Evolution.’
Curved parts: Kersten's role
The bends in a conveyor system allow flexible configuration and adaptation of routing, optimising the use of available space and enabling the system to function even in narrow or densely built-up areas.
The production of these curved segments requires specific knowledge and expertise in aluminium bending. This is why QuickMOVE entered into a partnership with Kersten, the specialist in bending technology. Manuel Hartmann, Sales Manager at Kersten GmbH, further explains: ‘Already during the development phase, we advised on the ideal design of the profile cross-section so that the profile maintains its functionalities even when bent and meets high quality standards.’ Heppelmann added: ‘We take Kersten's advice to heart. After all, perfect shape in curves is crucial for the overall performance and efficiency of our system. It prevents unnecessary wear and tear and contributes to smooth operation.’
Innovation through collaboration: a successful synergy
The successful collaboration leads to a new generation of transport systems. Manuel Hartmann of Kersten: ‘The cooperation with QuickMOVE is very pleasant and based on quality and trust. The company is characterised by its innovative strength, solution orientation and high quality standards - values that are also particularly appreciated at Kersten. Together, we combine our expertise to develop optimal intra-logistical solutions.’
