The idea of something custom, or designed specially to fit ones needs, often brings about thoughts of increased pricing and longer lead-times. However, with the variety of conveyor offerings from mk North America, Inc., that is not always the case.
Increasing operational efficiency in today’s workplace is the goal of companies across the globe. Thanks to automation and technological advancements, manufacturing and production facilities are now working smarter and faster than ever.
One way both human and robot operators are improving efficiency in the workplace is by backlighting conveyor systems.
Artificial Intelligence, the use of computer systems to perform functions once only possible by humans, is becoming a powerful tool for everyday life. From real-time traffic maps to improve commute times, to uploading a check using your bank’s mobile app – the applications for AI are endless.
Automation and the use of robotics in the manufacturing industry isn’t a new concept, but the market is seeing explosive growth in recent years thanks to advancements in robotic technology. The American factory is now working more efficiently and effectively as automated solutions enter the workforce.
Manufacturing efficiency is critical for industries across the globe. Improving operations and finding ways to do more with less is a constant requirement. Today, refining systems and getting employees on board and motivated to work is only half of the battle. The other important piece of the puzzle is having the equipment and technological innovations in place to optimize operations.

Conveyors move bulk materials (lumpy or granular materials in a free-flowing form) or discrete products (individual products such as single widgets or packaged items) from one area to another, and serve as main material handling arteries to improve efficiency and throughput. Advances in materials, controls, and modular sub-components have spurred new large conveyors for bulk material transport, miniature conveyors for discrete sorting, and everything in between.
