","articleBody":"A&F Souvenir, a leading manufacturer of custom souvenir products located in Ontario, Canada, recently decided to upgrade their 30-year-old DynaCon modular conveyor system. The original conveyor, which had served them well for decades, was replaced with a new model from the same trusted brand. The conveyor works alongside an injection mold machine that produces hundreds of different motifs, ensuring seamless integration into the production process at A&F Souvenir.  Challenges The older conveyor, while reliable, required occasional belt repairs and new flexibility needed to modernize manufacturing demands. The manufacturer needed a solution that would minimize product waste and damage, improve productivity, and offer greater mobility and flexibility. \u201cAfter 30 years in operation, it was time to upgrade the conveyor.\u201d said Bruce Weber, Plant Supervisor, A & F.  Solution The new DynaCon conveyor system features a rubber belt that prevents parts from bouncing around, providing a cushioning effect that better maintains the products on the conveyor. This innovation has significantly reduced product waste and damage. Additionally, the new conveyor can be easily moved to the front or back of the molding machine as needed, offering unparalleled flexibility. An added hopper accessory helps guide the parts to the conveyor belt with ease, reducing product damage, waste and labor.  Results Reduced Maintenance: The new belt and conveyor requires even less maintenance than the previous one, which only needed occasional repairs after 30 years. Improved Product Containment: The new hopper accessory has been a terrific addition, offering better product containment and reducing the need to pick up parts around the area. Increased Productivity: With parts now going directly from the conveyor to a box, where lifters take them to the clipping station, productivity has increased significantly. Timely Delivery and Easy Modifications: The customer received the new conveyor in a very timely manner and can easily obtain parts when modifications are needed. The manufacturer has quickly seen improvements in productivity and product waste. They are confident that this new conveyor will run smoothly for another 30 years. The customer shared, \u201cThese are very nice conveyors. I like to share with other industry professionals the great benefits, durability, and reliability of these conveyors,\u201d Weber said.
