Before a customer acquires a product, of course, a selection process is necessary. Dorner recommends the following five steps when choosing one of its conveyor systems:
- Environmental influences. The most suitable solution depends on whether the work environment is dry or wet, or whether it is a standard industrial setting (from pharmaceuticals to manual assembly). Environments that require wash-down should use systems that can be disassembled easily.
- Configuration. Consider whether the layout requires the ability to move in various directions, accommodate other equipment, or work within restrictions. Various design types are available.
- Sizing it up. The size of the conveyor system should be appropriate for the items being moved. It should also fit within the operating space, with room for worker movement.
- Moving it. Acquire the right motor mounts to move products at the correct speed, as well as any required accessories.
- Other details. Determine the right style of belt for the application, plus whether a flexible chain or a translucent appearance is needed.
