02. Transportation of Finished Products at Various Levels (Vertical, Horizontal, and Turned Paths)

Problem:

• Time Delays: Manual transportation between different floors took considerable time, slowing down the production cycle.
• Low Productivity: The lack of automation led to downtime and frequent delays, negatively impacting production volume.
• Risk of Damage: Manual handling, particularly of delicate electronic components, increased the risk of damage and losses.

Solution Provided by KONSORT: KONSORT developed and implemented an automated transportation solution for “FlexiPro” that ensured efficient vertical and path-shifting transport of products across the production lines.

Key Features of the Solution:

• Vertical Conveyor Systems: Lift conveyors were installed for quick transport of finished products between floors. This optimized space and sped up transportation by 30%.
• Rotary Belt Conveyors: Turn systems were added for smooth turns at 90° and 180°, facilitating product movement between different production areas without the need for manual intervention.
• Modular Screw Conveyors: These were specifically designed for vertical transportation of products, saving up to 20% of the production area and easing the handling of fragile electronic boards.

Equipment Used for Product Transportation:

• Belt Conveyors: 5 units for horizontal transportation between various production zones.
• Vertical Conveyors: 2 units for lifting products between different production levels.
• Rotary Conveyors: 4 units for transporting products across complex paths.
• Screw Conveyors: 3 units for smooth vertical elevation.

Implementation Results: After implementing KONSORT’s automated systems, “FlexiPro” achieved the following results:

• 40% Increase in Productivity: Faster product transportation reduced downtime on production lines.
• 15% Reduction in Losses: Automation minimized the risk of damage to fragile electronic components during transportation.
• 20% Optimization of Production Space: The use of vertical and rotary conveyors reduced manual transport and improved production space organization.
• 35% Decrease in Transportation Time: The automation of level-to-level transport significantly sped up the production cycle, positively impacting overall product volume.

Conclusion: KONSORT’s solution allowed “FlexiPro” to significantly improve manufacturing efficiency, minimize human error, and enhance the safety of transporting delicate products. By automating transport across various levels and incorporating rotary conveyors, the company optimized the use of production space and boosted its competitiveness in the electronics market.
