The handling of bulk materials refers to the storage, transport and control of loose materials in loose form. These materials may include food, liquids or minerals etc.. Generally, these pieces of equipment deal with the items in loose form, such as conveyor belts or elevators designed to move large quantities of material, or in packaged form.
Storage equipment is generally limited to non-automated examples, which are grouped with technical systems. Storage equipment is used to hold or store materials during “downtime” or when they are not being transported.
Industrial vehicle refer to the different types of transport vehicles used to move materials and products in the handling of materials. These trucks have a variety of features to make them suitable for different operations. Some trucks have forks, such as in a forklift, or a flat surface with which to lift objects, while other trucks require a piece of separate equipment to load.
