THE SITUATION
Kentucky Trailer is the nation’s leading manufacturer of custom moving vans for the moving and storage industry. In 2009, as the company was preparing to open a state-of-the-art facility for mixed model trailer production, they began to reassess their method of moving trailers through the various production stages. Previously, they had always used a linear, in-the-ground track which required four to five workers to move each trailer and limited the number of trailers they could fit in the facility. The company decided they needed a more flexible option. They turned to the versatility of air casters.
