what is one-shot loading?

One-shot loading is a method of trailer and container loading which loads goods during a single operational cycle. This loading process can be used with both palletised and non-palletised goods which means it can be used across a vast array of industries and with complex cargo. 

The method requires goods to be pre-loaded onto a loading system. This can be done in a variety of ways such as: conveyors, Automated Guided vehicles (AGVs) or Forklift Trucks (FLTs).

One-shot loading is in direct contrast to step-by-step or index loading

why choose a one-shot loading system?

For company's who regularly load trailers, containers or handle complex cargo, a one-shot loading system provides: 

Efficiency:

Once the load has been prepared on the loading system, the process of one-shot loading can take less than 5 minutes depending on which system is being used. Additionally, our one-shot loading systems are compatible with standard trailers and containers meaning that no special container or trailer modifications are needed to access these huge increases in productivity. 

Reduced product damage:

When used correctly our one-shot loading systems eliminate the likelihood of product damage occurring during the loading process.

Loadmatic Optimised Footprint

Labour savings:

Loading systems like our LoadMatic can be operated by a single user meaning you can allocate labour to different areas of your business. 

Safety:

Automated one-shot systems are operated via a Human Machine Interface (HMI) where the operator is stationed away from the trailer or container during loading removing the risk of injury. Additionally, the load staging/forming process can also be automated which removes forklift truck traffic in the loading bay, further eliminating the risk of injury. 

Sustainability:

Our automated one-shot loading systems can be used to completely eliminate the use of forklift trucks in your loading operations, reducing Co2 emissions and making your company more sustainable.

Loading dock space savings:

In a typical business use case for a one-shot loading system we often see the reduction in loading docks from 3 to 1.

how to load a shipping container in under 1 minute: one shot container loading

In this video, we demonstrate a revolutionary container loading system that allows you to efficiently load a shipping container in under 1 minute! Say goodbye to time-consuming and labor-intensive loading processes.

Our one-shot container loading system, equipped with advanced hydraulic technology, is designed to make loading a shipping container breeze. With our specially designed skate and track system, combined with the power of hydraulics, you'll experience unmatched speed and ease in loading sea containers and box containers alike. The skates effortlessly glide along a steel track temporarily placed on the container floor and the platform. Utilising a hydraulic pump, the track elevates, lifting the skate and your load clear off the platform, making it simple to roll the cargo into or out of the container.
