What the service covers
A production line is a working system of machines, conveyors, control cabinets and the electrical and pneumatic connections between them. We plan the move so that production downtime stays as short as possible and the line works at the new site the way it did before.
How it works
- Mapping and planning: before dismantling we map all equipment and its connections and prepare a detailed relocation plan and schedule.
- Labelling: electrical and pneumatic connections and components are labelled so that reconnection at the new site is quick and error-free.
- Dismantling: the equipment is disconnected and prepared for transport.
- Transport: we map the route in advance, use special lifting frames and escort vehicles where needed, and allow for narrow roads and oversize loads.
- Installation and connection: the equipment is positioned at the new site, levelled, connected to the electrical and automation systems and set up according to the manufacturer’s requirements.
- Test run: before production restarts we carry out a test run and hand over the equipment.
