Challenge
A leading toy manufacturer faced the challenge of optimizing the efficiency of internal transport in their distribution center in Dundalk, Ireland. The goal was to improve the internal logistics processes through the installation of a conveyor belt system that would ensure the smooth and reliable flow of products.
Objective
To implement an efficient internal transport system by installing conveyor belts, leading to increased productivity and reduced operational costs. The system had to be both mechanically and electrically reliable, with a focus on durability and ease of maintenance.
Execution
OBS Techniek was responsible for the mechanical and electrical installation in this project, carrying out the following tasks:
Mechanical installation: The team of 5 mechanical installers, led by a specialized supervisor, installed the conveyor belts according to the design plan. This included the assembly of supporting structures, rollers, and drive systems.
Electrical installation: A team of 5 electrical installers, also under the guidance of a supervisor, handled the electrical wiring and integration of the control systems. This included the installation of motors, sensors, and control cabinets.
Coordination and supervision: Both the mechanical and electrical teams worked closely together to ensure seamless integration, with weekly progress reports and quality checks.
