Some of the more difficult products to handle in a production environment are reels and spools of wire and hose. They're cumbersome, usually big and are definitely awkward. Creform has designed a cart specifically to hold reels and spools for delivery to the production floor, as well as being used for lineside storage for part replenishment.
