Frequently Asked Questions

HOW DO YOU CONNECT TWO OR MORE CONVEYORS INTO A SINGLE LINE?

Connecting two or more conveyor modules of similar or dissimilar construction requires careful alignment and integration, utilising mergers to ensure smooth material transfer from one system to another. 

At MCL, our experienced engineers are adept at installing systems that can merge product streams, easily integrating them into existing solutions if needed.

WHAT TYPES OF CONVEYORS ARE MOSTLY USED IN A WAREHOUSE?

It really depends on the warehouse in question, as there is a huge variety in potential products that can be stored or distributed from a given warehouse. 

Rollers are typically used for merge conveyor solutions, and have historically been most commonly used and well represented in warehouses - particularly those that deal with boxes and evenly-packaged goods.

Mergers are an integral part of increasing throughput, transfer rates and volume, bringing together a mix of roller technology with belt, chain, motor-driven, and/or band-driven conveyor systems to deliver highly autonomous manufacturing, processing, storage and distribution infrastructure.

The advent of high employment costs, and increased throughput/transfer rates, drive and control is needed to make these workspaces much more efficient. All of which require a solid business case for the initial investment and subsequent payback.
