Mechanically making your line fit together and transition to the right system is achieved through various custom machine adjustments and simple line engineering methods. Mechanical integration addresses some of the following issues:
- Machinery deck heights
- Mechanical transitions between equipment
- Transition plates
- Conveyor widths
- Changeovers
- Specific grade requirements
- Accumulation and uptime requirements
