SI Conveyor Systems provides the
Finishing Touch
SI LO-TOW® towline overhead conveyor systems can be configured in a continuous single loop or in numerous smaller loops where a particular process can be completed before the towline cart is transferred to one of the other loops within the system. SI finishing systems organize the work flow through a facility by directly linking operations to one another. Operations such as machining through production procedures to storage and shipping of finished products.
Carts/carriers can be diverted into spur lines to facilitate extended manual operations or to serve as work in process queuing.
These finishing systems are designed with capabilities that allow towline carts to interface with related equipment and processes where workers can not, because of extreme temperatures or environmental conditions. These may include interfacing with ovens, spraying or dipping operations, specialty machinery, heat treatment areas, and more.
SI finishing systems incorporate all of the controls necessary to make them addressable and are able to automatically travel to a particular finishing application within a system and then move on to the next process automatically, providing significant labor cost reductions and a more efficient production process.
LO-TOW benefits in finishing applications:
- Reduced manual handing - means less damage and fewer rejects.
- 360° worker access at workstation.
- Automatic close pack feature.
- Run carrier forward and or reverse simultaneously on same line.
- Reduce maintenance - mechanical failure is practically non-existent.
- Expansion and modification are easily accomplished.
- Easily incorporate vertical lifts.
- Negotiate inclines and declines.
- Accumulate loads in-line.
