Conveyor Trends Impacted by Demand for Engineered to Order Options Reports Alfacon Solutions

In order to meet the needs and demands of customers, manufacturers provide highly customized products; Alfacon Solutions is the leader in these ETO (engineered-to-order) conveyors.

Automation in every industrial segment has become an integral part of industrial operations. Conveyor systems are mechanically-operated material handling equipment, which are used to transport material within premises. They provide a quick and effective transportation solution with a high degree of safety. Therefore, due to effectiveness of conveyance, a considerable amount of cycle time is reduced in the industrial process. The same factor helps in reducing the errors in handling manual material. Early commercialization of the conveyor system took place for transportation of heavy materials in the industrial sector. Conveyor systems can broadly be categorized as automotive, airport, retail, mail logistics, and food and beverage.

Assembly line, body shop, paint shop and few others are key application areas of conveyor systems in the automotive sector. Nevertheless, the retail sector utilizes these systems for distribution and warehousing, sorting, cross-docking, and distribution. Conveyor systems are an integral part of airport facilities for baggage handling. Usage of the conveyer system in airport facilities is likely to increase due to growing air traffic across the globe, and the development of new airport locations. Moreover, the growing demand for food and beverage is propelling the adoption of conveyor systems to boost production rates.

Alfacon Solutions, the leaders in Engineered-to-Order Conveyor solutions, will be exhibiting at MODEX 2016 April 9-14, 2018 at booth #B655.
