The flow of materials and finished goods is seen as a business on its own right away, concerned with minimizing the overall cost of supply but maximizing the market advantages.
The movement of materials parts and finished products through the productive chain comes increasingly under a total material management philosophy, simultaneously, there are major change. Most organization maintain some handling equipment varying in size and computerized integrated handling system.
Handling materials which is one of the main activities in store house and stockyard is a costly operation and therefore the method and equipment should be efficient.
