Conveyors can help electronics assemblers balance production, maximize equipment utilization and increase floor space.
But if CEOs aren?t exactly thrilled to authorize new equipment purchases to address the problem, there is one low-cost technology that can make a difference: board handling equipment. Conveyors for PCBs aren?t long, but don?t let their size fool you. They are more flexible and interface with more types of machines than conveyors for most mechanical assembly applications. By balancing production, maximizing equipment utilization and increasing floor space, PCB conveyors can help assemblers squeeze a bit more output from their lines.
