Employees can be freed from monotonous tasks (e.g. lifting heavy objects) and labor-intensive tasks by using materials handling systems. This will allow them to reduce stress and increase their satisfaction at work.
6. Space Utilization. Organize your warehouse so that you can maximize the space available. You can organize your warehouse by clearing out clutter and stacking inventory in vertical height.
Material handling can also be used across industries. But it is most commonly used for warehousing. This is where goods are stored, retrieved and then shipped.
Material handling equipment uses manual, semi-automated and automated equipment to help with the storage and movement of materials in the warehouse.
The material handling system and processes of a company are set up to improve customer service and reduce inventory. They also shorten delivery times and lower overall handling costs in manufacturing and distribution.
Storage equipment is usually limited to non-automated examples, which are grouped in with engineered systems. Storage equipment is used to hold or buffer materials during “downtimes,” or times when they are not being transported. These periods could refer to temporary pauses during long-term transportation or long-term storage designed to allow the buildup of stock. The majority of storage equipment refers to pallets, shelves or racks onto which materials may be stacked in an orderly manner to await transportation or consumption. Many companies have investigated increased efficiency possibilities in storage equipment by designing proprietary packaging that allows materials or products of a certain type to conserve space while in inventory.

Planning Principles Include:
Principle of Planning: All material handling activities should be planned.
The systems principle states that handling activities should be integrated and coordinated.
The Simplification Principle... The Material Flow Principle... The Gravity Principle... The Unit Size Principle...
Principle of Space Utilization:... Principle of Safety:
The first and foremost goal of material handling is to reduce production costs. Because material procurement, storage, and movement account for a significant portion of total production costs. Material is essential for the manufacturing process.
Material Handling Objectives
Cost Savings: Cost-cutting programs have two broad goals: to lower the cost of Material Handling or to lower total production costs through improved handling procedures.
Increased Capacity.... Improved Working Conditions.... Product Value Addition.
