Your key partner in added logistic value NEWS LETTER 01 – April 2005 With this first newsletter of 2005, we at SACO would like to give you an update of air cargo handling equipment and projects currently being implemented as well as of the exhibitions where we shall be present. Should you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact us. YUSEN Air and Sea Service, Amsterdam Schiphol Airport, NL Being a long time user of SACO handling equipment in their current warehouse at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport, YUSEN recently ordered a new SACO system for their new facility to be built nearby. The new 6,000 m² warehouse will be fitted with an automatic ULD handling and storage system suitable for 10ft, 20ft pallets as well as containers. Incoming and outgoing ULD’s are handled by two truck docks (one 10ft and one 20ft) which are both connected to a transfer vehicle (TV) with storage positions. Two lowering workstations connected to the system will enable safe building and breaking of pallets. The stations are both fitted with integral weighing systems so that built pallets can be weighed on the spot. The system, with in total 46 storage positions for 10ft pallets, is planned to be operational by the end of 2005. Mr. Robert Croes, YUSEN’s Director for the Benelux said that the reason for choosing SACO equipment was the proven reliability of their systems, impressive references at Schiphol Airport, as well as the availability of technical service nearby.
