Why Choose Us?
Design
Designing a conveyor system involves careful consideration of operators, machines throughput, capability and down time. Even accounting for tea breaks and shift changes can help us design a line which will not have bottlenecks, and have the right product buffers to keep production moving smoothly and efficiently.

3D CAD
We design systems using 3D CAD software Solidworks. We are able to provide 3D drawings at the sales stage, which means customers can easily visualise the proposed system. Complex layouts can be viewed from different angles, customers product can be shown on the system. This brings to life the proposed solution and can also help the customer explain proposed changes to staff. Our 3D CAD is a valuable product to design and build the final system, allowing us to assemble components, build the system around your existing factory and highlight any potential problems.

Spares & Training
Monk Conveyors offers full spares and training which is very important to keeping your production line running without issues. For each project we will produce a spares list with items graded from critical to low wear. We can also walk through the line with you to identify spares as part of our training.
Training is critical as it gives your operators and maintenance staff confidence and helps them take ownership of the line. Our systems are designed to be easy to fault find and maintain. Faults are often simple and relatively quick to fix when engineers know where to look and how to identify problems.
We can offer the following services as part of our spares and training support:
- Spares parts list graded from critical to low wear
- Spare part advice as part of training
- Spare parts management, which involves us replacing spare parts when they have been used
