Our paper goods client in Kinston, North Carolina had been trying to take on new customers. So we needed to redesign a larger-scale operation to increase productivity and create an efficient showroom for prospective clients.
Material Handling Specialist, Brad Dowless, redesigned the entire distribution center conveyor system for a 40% increase in production.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, our food and beverage distribution client in Eastern North Carolina needed to increase the capacity of their pallet-wrapping operation..
Working with the automated wrapper team, Brad Dowless designed a fourth conveyor line into the process. Pallets could now be loaded into four different lines, speeding up throughput over 33%.
To reduce the cost of downtime during cleaning and maintenance at our client’s major food processing center, a stainless steel spiral conveyor was installed as a backup. Eliminating just one Saturday of downtime pays for this entire project.
To eliminate our client’s safety risks, Brad Dowless brought in a Mechanical Vertical Reciprocating Conveyor (VRC) from PFlow Industries. A VRC is basically an elevator lift strictly for materials. This provided the perfect, safest way to move goods to and from the second level.
