When it comes to the manufacturing industry, every aspect that goes into creating your products affects your bottom line, including your conveyor belts. A poorly designed belt can cost your business product loss or downtime, all impacting your bottom line. Whether you a large manufacturer or a small startup, every penny matters. Is it time to upgrade your conveyor belt to help reduce costs and increase profits?

Signs it Is Time to Upgrade Your Conveyor Belt

Keeping your product moving is imperative to mass production. So when any of your conveyor belts breakdown, malfunction or lose product, it can cost your business plenty. While buying a new conveyor may seem like a large expense, it may increase productivity, making it a wise investment. Here are signs a new conveyor belt is the best choice for improving your bottom line:

• High repair costs. Does it seem like your conveyor belt is being repaired more than it is moving? An aging conveyor can nickel and dime your business with ongoing repairs. It is better to cut your losses and start with a new conveyor.
• Product loss. Is your conveyor not ideal for your product type? If you changed packaging or bought a used conveyor, it may not be the best type for your business or product. Getting the right conveyor for your product can have a large impact on your productivity levels.
• Safety and efficiency issues. Some older equipment is poorly designed for safety or energy efficiency. Just upgrading your belt can reduce energy costs and injury liability.

If you are ready to upgrade your conveyor belt, trust a company that specializes in producing, customizing, installing and servicing commercial conveyor belts.  The right belt can make a big difference in your bottom line.
