I have been searching for a forum similar to ours but discusses topics on MHS i.e. those big machines and conveyance systems found in warehouses. Names that come to mind are MHE-Demag, Siemens, Inter-roller and Lodige.
Anyone know of such a forum?

I try to keep tabs on sites related to material handling, however, over the years I have not encountered any active forums related to material handling in general. I think I checked out one or two several years ago but they had very poor participation.
You may want to suggest to ForkliftAction to add a "General Material Handling" category to their discussion forums. I think many of the folks that already participate in the forklift forums likley also have experience and interest in other modes of material handling.

Thank you. It sounds like a good idea. Does anyone have thoughts on what we should and should not include in the description of discussion parameters? We will need a heading and short description for the opening page where we list the Discussion Forums....any ideas appreciated.

Maybe something like "Discuss: Conveyor Systems, AS/RS, Carousels, AGVs, and other non-lift-truck material handling equipment.

It may also be worth considering to add a category for storage equipment and another for dock equipment. These all relate so closely to the topics already being discussed that I think there is a good chance you'll have interest in them. If not, you can always delete them later.

Yes, yes, I agree. Let's try this one out.

Perhaps later, when we have enough contributions/responses, we could have sub-sections like PLC, Designs & Specs, Safety, etc

Google: ENG-TIPS PLC (It is likely the best link for your current question.)

Google: MATERIALS HANDLING EQUIPMENT ENGINEERING FORUM
