Increase the efficiency of the metal structure of the factory

When help is less space to keep more competitive costs, but it makes it harder to get big contracts, therefore the installation of a system that optimizes the use of space can be the difference between profit and loss.

Simple things such as starting the process on the outside of the factory and use material transport systems.

A large equipment is important but the layout plan and a proper study of the material flow can be minimized dramatically the time lost in the factory with inefficient processes.

For example, if you take a walk by its factory and spent an hour or two to look at their cranes you will be surprised the time it takes to work as simple as moving a beam from one place to another and will be even more surprised the effect of 'Viewer' that generates the crane in his factory, all over the world for and looks to the crane.

Made by estructuristas estimates that the average cost of a beam with a bridge crane handling ranges between 10 and 15 euros for movement and transport systems will avoid an average of 8 to 10 movements by processed beam.

You can minimize the use of the crane by material transport systems. No matter the size of the factory, investment in roads of rollers and cross transfers is certainly the most profitable with a faster return on investment. And it will be the safety of their workers.

For the production:

• CNC equipment will maintain competitiveness with reliability and continuity. without dependence on the qualifications and ability of the operators.

• Choose the right equipment for the factory can be easy if you know. as you want it to be this in the future.

• Modular design equipment will grow with the factory.

• Start with the basics and go step by step to grow.

• To load the system:

• Fork-lift truck of lateral loading.

• Conventional forklifts of front-loading.

• Fork-lift truck with direction to the four senses with payload and front and lateral movement.

• Crane bridge.

• Cranes bridge in tandem with Government and synchronization by radio control.

• Systems of magnetic mooring for beams.

To download the system:

• Crane bridge.

• Cranes bridge in tandem with Government and synchronization by radio control.

• Systems of magnetic mooring for beams.

Start with a simple equipment appropriate to their current needs and go complementing and increasing to a larger one that will help to find and respond to new demands of production.

In today's competitive market make a close analysis of how things are doing and adapt to modern methods to increase efficiency will pay dividends in the future. A well-planned process will provide the ability to access to higher and better contracts.

Storage of machined material:

• Area of deposit for profiles and cut plates and taladrados.

• Marking and checking that the list of materials to manufacture has been completed.

• Area of preparation for plates and profiles together and sets for Assembly under level.

• Storage of parts machined but not required in the same lot and that have emerged from the nesting of the material, sheet, or profile to other orders for manufacturing.

• Manufacturing in packs forming equipment sets.

• Lists of materials will be made to both profiles and plates.

• Plan all the plates and connections a week in advance.

• Work benches pushed manually.

• Motorized work benches.

• Jacking bogies hydraulic to move the work benches.

• Tippers and Positioners of beams.

Assembly and welding process:

• Packets of thread of great dimension for units MIG welding eliminates the need for frequent reel changes and help to the requirements of the regulations with a proper selection.

• Tanks of gases (oxygen, acetylene, propane) Court with pipes to each workstation to eliminate regular change of bottles.

• C0 tanks₂ and argon gases of protection with a power of mixing and conduction with output in every job eliminated the frequent change of bottles and ensure a correct mixing and uniform.

• Shots of electric power and air on each workstation for hand tool prevents the dangerous and uncomfortable tangles of cables and hoses on the ground.

• Rotating arms suspended with wire feed units avoid wear and tear on the MIG welding torches, ensures the correct flow of the thread and facilitate the positioning of the torch.

• The subject of the parts to assemble with MIG welding points avoids the problems of inclusion of slag.

• The qualification in welding of all workers in Assembly will allow everyone to carry out this process when the needs of the Assembly production increase and any bottleneck in welding.

• Assemble at the time of day / welding in the night shift allows to carry out more Assembly and more welding on each shift.

• The tooling and Assembly templates help to accelerate the Assembly process.

• Storage and output.

• Deposit of pieces assembled by sets in cribs manufactured in order to be at the same time moved all with a single movement of elevation, both the factory and assembly area.

• Save costs because they have no need to keep busy trailer carriages.

• Speed of loading and unloading.

• Full of assembled subsets cots can be elevated to the level of editing and be placed on the structure.
