There was a lot of idle time,\u201d says Mike Will, Operations Engineer. While determining how to eliminate the need for an operator to manually feed the process, finding a company with conveyor systems that could withstand the characteristics of the lubricant was one of the biggest concerns.  \u201cAs the lubricant sits in open air, it tends to build up on any surface near the water line. As the lubrication evaporates, the solids are left behind forming a kind of sludge. This was a major consideration in how I approached the design of the entire machine, but particularly the conveyor,\u201d says Will.   Solution Dynamic Conveyor offers modular conveyors built from plastic modules that allow the conveyors to be submerged in tanks of water or lubricant. The conveyors are self-lubricating and use a positive sprocket drive and tracking with plastic link style belting that eliminates slippage making them maintenance free.  The recently implemented automated system links the Z conveyor with an oven conveyor, so the operator is able to control both conveyors as a single system. The conveyor, partially immersed in the lubrication bath, draws parts up out of the bath and feeds them into the oven conveyor.  Results The conveyors have the ability to withstand the lubricant. \u201cIt\u2019s the way the conveyor\u2019s designed,\u201d says Will. \u201cThere are not a lot of places for that material to attach to and in addition to that, the materials used in the DynaCon tend to prevent the lubricant from accumulating.\u201d  Will says of the conveyor, \u201cI\u2019m impressed. Over six months of service, it\u2019s required no maintenance and it hasn\u2019t needed any cleaning, which is nice because given the option, most people would rather not mess with the lubricant we\u2019re using.\u201d  Will estimates the entire system will pay for itself within two years at current volumes. Of the conveyor he adds, \u201cit was surprisingly inexpensive given its capabilities. The conveyor is definitely carrying its own weight.\u201d","timeRequired":"P0Y0M0DT0H1M17S","datePublished":"2022-07-10","mentions":{"@type":"Thing","url":"https:\/\/www.wikidata.org\/wiki\/Q187939","name":"wiki-manufacturing","@id":"https:\/\/www.wikidata.org\/wiki\/Q187939"},"about":[{"@type":"Thing","url":"https:\/\/www.wikidata.org\/wiki\/Q588395","name":"wiki-carabiner","sameAs":["kg:\/m\/01s4v","https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Carabiner"],"@id":"https:\/\/www.wikidata.org\/wiki\/Q588395"},{"@type":"Thing","url":"https:\/\/www.wikidata.org\/wiki\/Q116961513","name":"wiki-conveyor","@id":"https:\/\/www.wikidata.org\/wiki\/Q116961513"}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/www.dynamicconveyor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Dynamic-Conveyor-Logo-Rev.png","name":"Dynamic Conveyor logo","height":"118","width":"486","@id":"https:\/\/www.dynamicconveyor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Dynamic-Conveyor-Logo-Rev.png"},"address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","name":"Dynamic Conveyor Postal Address","addressCountry":"https:\/\/www.dynamicconveyor.com\/#Country","addressLocality":"Norton Shores","addressRegion":"Michigan","postalCode":"49441","streetAddress":"5980 Grand Haven Road","@id":"https:\/\/www.dynamicconveyor.com\/#PostalAddress74047caf-8e2e-41d7-8aa4-b2c4b25981c0"},"url":"https:\/\/www.dynamicconveyor.com\/","alternateName":["Dynamic Conveyor company","Dynamic Conveyor Corp","Dynamic Conveyor Corporation"],"name":"Dynamic Conveyor","description":"Conveyor manufacturer","email":"sales@dynamicconveyor.com","telephone":"+1 231-798-1483","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/DynamicConveyorCorp","https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/237420\/","https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/DynamicConveyor"],"contactPoint":["https:\/\/www.dynamicconveyor.com\/contact\/#Sales","https:\/\/www.dynamicconveyor.com\/contact\/#Sales"],"legalName":"Dynamic Conveyor Corporation","naics":"333922","foundingDate":"1991-01-01","areaServed":"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/North_America","founder":"https:\/\/www.dynamicconveyor.com\/#person","award":["2016 U.S. Patent No. 9,394,111 for the DynaClean brand","2015 Silver Achievement Safety Award","2014 Winner of Michigan Top 50 Companies to Watch","2014 U.S. Patent No. 8,919,541 for the DynaClean brand","2014 One of Michigan\u2019s Economic Bright Spots","2000 Family Friendly Business Award of Muskegon County","1996, 1997, 1998 & 1999 One of the State\u2019s Fastest Growing Companies"],"@id":"https:\/\/www.dynamicconveyor.com\/#Organization"},"inLanguage":{"@id":"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/English_language"},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/www.dynamicconveyor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Black-Diamond.jpg","name":"Black Diamond Logo Image","height":225,"width":225,"@id":"https:\/\/www.dynamicconveyor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Black-Diamond.jpg"},"@id":"https:\/\/www.dynamicconveyor.com\/caribeners\/#BlogPosting"},{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Lubrication Bath Conveyor for Carabiners","item":"https:\/\/www.dynamicconveyor.com\/caribeners\/#breadcrumbitem"}]}]
