Conveyors, Transport Systems and Cranes

By fully automating the flow of materials around the production site, costly product damage is eliminated and productivity rates are increased

To minimise the maintenance costs incurred by a commercial vehicle over the course of it’s working life, it is essential that during the production process the vehicle’s key components are protected against the harmful impact of corrosion.

CTI Systems designs paint systems that deliver durable corrosion protection treatment to vehicle parts of all sizes. Offering high process flexibility, CTI Systems' corrosion protection solutions are fully integrated to complement the user’s existing manufacturing and handling facilities.

The safe, efficient and reliable movement of parts through the paint shop and other areas of the factory is a mission critical to all vehicle manufacturers and by fully automating the flow of materials around the production site, costly product damage is eliminated and productivity rates are increased.

CTI’s paint systems are designed around the precise needs of the user. From the outset, careful consideration is given to the space restrictions of the site, the existing layout of flow lines, the size and dimension of the parts that will be handled and, of course, the throughput speeds demanded by the application.

Fully integrated solution

The end result will be a fully integrated solution built around floor-based transport technology or overhead conveyor systems– or, perhaps, a combination of floor and overhead transport schemes, if a dual approach is considered to be the optimum design option.

Popular conveyor technologies include:

  • Tank cranes for dip processes
  • Transfer cranes
  • Process cranes
  • Mono- and bi-rail systems
  • Assembly line conveyors
  • Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs)
  • Floor shuttles
  • Loading/unloading hoist stations
  • Handling technology
  • Special conveyors through powder/wet paint booths
