Adding Finishing to a FAB SHOP – Design Criteria
This 3-session series is directed to any fabrication shop that is even remotely thinking about adding a finishing operation. The first session will provide an in-depth overview of the issues to be addressed when considering a paint or powder, manual (batch) or conveyorized finishing system. Key elements will be presented to make sure critical details are considered and understood. This will include evaluating production rates, cost considerations, standards and regulations, safety issues and training. In addition, specific information will be presented on the various material handling options available, from carts to conveyorized.
