My Roles as Forklift driver picker and packer in NZ

FORKLIFT EXP.

In the past, I operated a BT standing model of a Reach forklift and other Toyota counterbalanced forklift, though not on a full-time basis. Therefore, upon arriving at the initial warehouse in New Zealand, I found myself capable of maneuvering nearly all available machines. This diverse experience undoubtedly contributed to my proficiency.


Upon commencing my roles in New Zealand, my responsibilities included operating various forklifts as outlined below:

  Reach Sitting Model Brand CROWN

When it comes to counterbalance Forklifts, the accessories equipped on this HYSTER electric model prove to be incredibly advantageous. These accessories eliminate the need for manual width adjustment of the forks, providing a seamless and expedient solution, particularly when faced with diverse pallet sizes.

Project for HARTING S.A. Chile

 Project for HARTING S.A. Chile

    This was a project in which I participated designing most of the two rolling beds for pallets and later mounting the real parts in the factory.

    During and after the design process then Helping to design and mount some part of the electric way to give power and control to the machine as well.

 

   Multi-Discipline Team description:

RFG: (Owner) Reinaldo Flores In charge of the mechanic project, Joel Ossandon design and give the correct measures of the pallet-beds

CM: Christian Mellado (Owner) In charge of the Electric and Control project, Matias & Diego electric and automation technicians, and myself designing and helping mounting the electric piping and more.

What was expected: 

description: there should be one rolling bed for pallets that brings the pallets towards and backwards to the second rotating pallet bed, which function is spinning and  allow filling metal barrels of 200lt capacity, then pull them backwards on the pallets to be packed and stored in another place of the factory.

      What we achieved working with the multi-disciplines teams:

    


here we where testing the height of the pedestal and the last location of it so we could finish the length of the piping was coming from the main board (right side Matias and Diego From CM)

Pedestal
Last Config. for the pedestal (designed and built by myself)


 


The design purpose is to let the operator can see the whole process during the operation

Finished Pedestal for command touch screen
Pedestal for the touch screen, all wired and already working


First Pallet Bed (to "feed"  and bring back  pallets from the rotative pallet bed)

(2nd Pallet Bed) Rotating pallet bed under test






(under the rotating pallet bed) this part of the machine was the real challange, due to we had to solve the problem that this bed was spining only in one direction so the power cord could be just attached to it, then


Testing the rollers conveyors in order to pass pallets from one bed to another smoothly



Checking the length of the sensors protections



With CM (Cristian Mellado) Team we were able to install the metallic conduit and wired the power and control boards (technitians: Matias & Letellier)
