Choosing the Best Conveyor Systems for Your Facility

In many types of manufacturing, conveyor systems are crucial for achieving maximum efficiency. There are a number of important factors you’ll want to take into account before selecting the system you’ll use for your own processes – though if you ever need any assistance, the experts at Norpak are always ready to help out!

A few considerations for choosing your conveyor systems include…

• The Facility You Own

  – The layout of your warehouses is a very important thing to consider before implementing conveyor systems. Do you, for example, need inclining or declining systems to transport materials between floors? Will your layout accommodate gravity conveyors, to save energy costs? How large can your system be, and how large should it be? Each of these can have a significant impact on the system that you’ll need for your production line.

• The Kind of Material Handled

  - The length, width, and height of your product will naturally influence the type of conveyor system you need to transport it. Your type of conveyor should also be suitable for the weight of the product, especially depending on the potential volume travelling through your facility.

• Future Expansions

  – The conveyor system you need now may not necessarily be one you need a few years down the line. Expansions to your facility, relocating, and changes to your workflow. If you need a conveyor system that will be flexible, expandable, or portable, we can help you to find one that can accommodate your future needs.
