Adding a loader to an existing process can increase capacity, free up labor

摘要

SHOULD you use an autoloader or not? It's a good question. In short, a device that automatically loads a fabrication machine often can make the difference between an operation that is questionably profitable and one that is definitely profitable. Direct labor can be expensive and is susceptible to human error; neither factor helps the bottom line. A robustly designed tube loader, on the other hand, works at a consistent rate and loads tube the same way day in and day out. These factors can help the bottom line. So, when should you employ a loader? The answer can vary widely from one company to the next. At the end of the day it is a financial decision. Integrating a loader into an existing forming process can free up an employee to perform a secondary operation while simultaneously making sure the loader stays supplied with raw material.
