FAQ

Conveyors & Automation FAQ

Answers to the questions we are asked most often when a finishing line is being planned.

Do you only make finishing-line conveyors?

Finishing lines are the core use. The same factory also builds food-grade incline belts, speed-chain assembly lines and turn units for plant handling.

Conveyors on an XFS finishing line set the dwell in every booth and oven. The factory also builds food-grade incline belts and assembly conveyors as standalone equipment.
