Product flow is right every time
August 1st 2005

MCM Conveyors has completed a new handling system for specialist fastener manufacturer, PSM International.

The MCM solution links separate production and inspection/warehousing buildings. It includes a new high level overhead conveyor system that spans the road and allows vehicles free access to the warehouse bays, integrated with special belt and powered lineshaft roller conveyors.

The lightweight MCM Powertrack 30 overhead conveyor system features purpose designed carriers fitted at close pitches to accommodate the plastic containers.

A belt conveyor at the opposite end of the system returns empty containers.

The overhead conveyor therefore performs the dual role of delivering containers from production to warehouse and returning empty boxes for further use. Product integrity is maintained as the overhead conveyor travels under the protection of a waterproof canopy, supported on external gantries. The total overall track length is 135m and the system is capable of delivering a full container every 22 seconds.

The system has reduced manual handling and provided a continuous, controlled flow of product, automatically marshalled to the right destination every time.
