Texas Injection Molding Maximizes Building Envelope for Storing Plastic Resin

Texas Injection Molding completed the expansion of it’s new materials warehouse in 2024.  Injection molding facilities handle a constant flow of plastic resin, most often delivered in bulk containers like gaylords or super sacks. Storing and moving these heavy loads safely and efficiently is critical to keeping production lines running smoothly. Texas Injection Molding worked with Crown to efficiently lay out the rack locations and place a magnetic wire in the floor to guide the Crown TSP 6500-33 lift.

Built for Heavy Loads

The TSP 6500-33 is designed to lift and maneuver heavy materials with ease. Most plastic resin is supplied in Gaylords and Supersacks. These bulk containers typically weigh 1,500 to 2,500 pounds. With the Crown lift, operators can safely transport these bulky loads without the risk of spills, damage, or injury.

Efficient Use of Floor Space

The wire guided Turret lift allows for narrow isles providing for significantly more rows.  The Crown lift allows us to utilize all of our 32′ ceiling height with a high pile permit from the City of Houston.

Safety and Stability

The Crown TSP 6500-33 provides excellent stability while lifting and transporting, giving operators confidence that their loads are secure. The magnetic wire guidance system ensures that the lift travels between the narrow isles in the exact position to avoid drifting off course or running into the racking system.  This translates into fewer accidents, less product loss, and a smoother workflow overall.

Long-Term Value

Because it is built to handle demanding industrial applications, the Crown TSP 6500-33 provides durability that injection molding companies can rely on. Texas Injection Molding operates 24 hours a day and pushes the equipment hard.  Fork lifts are a critical piece of equipment to our operation and any downtime causes significant disruption. Investing in equipment that supports both safety and productivity makes a noticeable difference in the bottom line.
