3-D Conveyor Designed to Guarantee Optimal Solution at Alfacon Solutions

Alfacon Solutions engineers develop designs in 3-D to help identify interaction points, clearances, and obstructions before a conveyor is installed at a manufacturing plant, distribution center, or warehouse. The 3-D designs can be turned into renderings and animations which provide a great perspective on how the different systems will fit and operate in a customer’s facility.

After project planning is complete, the Alfacon Solutions’ team works with customers for system design and layout. This phase allows engineers to design alternate system layouts based on parameters created in the planning phase. It also determines a final layout and equipment selection based on labor modeling, operational and systems definition, allotted budget, and projected return on investment (ROI).

Finally, the teams validate the final system layout and equipment selection with computer simulation models to guarantee the system will work optimally as well as meet all requirements.

Alfacon Solutions, the leaders in Engineered-to-Order and Custom Conveyor, Lift, and materials handling solutions, will be presenting an educational seminar at MODEX 2018 called Adaptive Conveying on Tuesday, April 10, 2018 at 12:00 PM - 12:45 PM in Theater I. The seminar will be presented by Alfacon Solutions’ Ryan McMillan, Director of Engineering and John Murdoch, CEO.

The presentation will provide attendees an overview of a configurable conveying solution and how to integrate conveying solutions into automated vehicles. The presentation will have a focus on custom configurable conveying solutions as well as integration of conveying solutions into automated vehicles. The primary advantages and disadvantages of each type of solution will be discussed. Alfacon Solutions will exhibit at booth #B637.
