Are you looking for conveyor systems for material handling because you have considerable flows Obviously, integrating conveyor systems can bring extensive benefits to your operation, the key is in the design and implementation, so technology is neither short nor excessive.
In this blog we will talk about the existing conveyor systems and the benefits they provide to your operation.
Let´s start by defining what conveyor systems exist
Case Conveyors: Operations that handle cases or packages may use equipment with zero pressure buildup, minimum pressure buildup, certain convergences and even a sortation area.
● Pallet conveyors: When the conveyors deliver the product to the palletizing area, a complete tower is made on a wooden or plastic pallet.
● Tow Line Conveyor: It is an underground conveyor, pulled by a robust chain that allows to tow many carts at the same time, on which the products to be moved have been arranged.
● Elevation systems: The spirals are conveyors with this shape, these allow handling high flows of products with a rigid and flat bottom, interconnecting 2 or more levels.
● Aerial conveyors: Aerial conveyors are equipment usually pulled by robust chains, these intercalate trolleys or wheelbarrows with an attachment that allows products to be hung in various ways.
Choosing one or the other is the real challenge, since there are 2 main types: for the process and for the end of the line. In addition to this, a strategic design must be worked on, according to the flow, but also considering the scalability of the operation.
Let´s Dig into the Benefits of Conveyor Systems
The advantages offered by transport systems are immense and can be seen from the characteristics of each product. Among the most specific benefits they provide are:
● Productivity.
● Efficiency.
● Increase the safety of the operation.
● Time optimization.
● Release of spaces.
● Standardization of product handling.
● Provide modularity and scalability.
