Selecting the Right Conveyor Belt Supplier Checklist

Selecting the Right Conveyor Belt
Supplier Checklist
2
Because your conveyor system is one of the most
significant aspects of your business, its
critical that you connect with someone who knows
this. The simple truth is that you need a
provider who knows everything there is to know
about your operation, needs, and conveyor systems
so you dont have to. When choosing a conveyor
system provider, keep the following points in
mind
3
Do they do surveys and inspections at your place
of business? 
You need someone who is familiar with conveyor
systems. Period. You want to know that youre
utilizing the greatest product on the market,
that youre only changing out what you need to,
that youre lowering your total cost of
ownership, and that youre getting more uptime
than downtime.
4
Do they have service staff and assistance for
downtime? 
You require a source who will be there when you
need them. Having access to specialists, whether
for installation, troubleshooting, or
preventative maintenance services, is critical,
especially in an emergency.
5
Do they have a thorough understanding of all the
options? 
Some vendors are only familiar with heavyweight
belts used in the conventional heavy industry.
Some people are only familiar with lightweight
belting materials used in the food and beverage
and agriculture industries. Both should be
covered by your supplier. Why? Because knowing
trends, understanding whats accessible, and
knowing the proper answer to apply to each
specific case is the only way to create new
products. A provider should also be well-versed
in all of the components and accessories utilized
in various systems. Your provider should review
everything, from pulleys and idlers to chute
liners and safety cages, and do whatever it takes
to keep you going smoothly.
6
Do they have expertise dealing with customers
like me?
Is this vendor familiar with your sector, or
perhaps with your competitors? Are they familiar
with the types of problems I can encounter on a
frequent basis? Do they have a comprehensive
understanding of my requirements, both
individually and collectively? You may need to
shop around if they are not taking the time to
learn by doing an in-depth review.
7
Will they be able to demonstrate the value they
provide? 
Your supplier should always be thinking of ways
to assist you that will save you money in the
long run. Did they use a product substitute that
resulted in fewer product changes than
previously? Do they offer new solutions that
reduce or eliminate downtime? Are they assisting
me in reducing the amount of labour required? Are
they available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week,
whenever I need them? If you have any doubts
about any of these solutions, there are conveyor
belt suppliers who will work with you 24/7, 365
days a year, to ensure the smoothest operation
possible. But, of course, the inevitable inquiry
is, What have you done for me recently? Its
beneficial to have a supplier who maintains track
of what they do for you, especially if you can
demonstrate a cost savings as a result of the
cooperation.
8
Do they offer on-the-job training?
You may need to be familiar with the product and
its applications in order to deal with any
emergencies that may arise. Sure, having someone
to call and rely on in an emergency is always
nice, but wouldnt it be even better if you could
be the hero of the day? Some vendors will teach
your entire workforce on a variety of topics,
ranging from safety to problem-solving. A
reliable supplier will also provide you with
on-site training that suits your requirements. In
conclusion, everyone is different and has various
needs, and you want a conveyor belt supplier who
understands yours and can respond quickly when
youre in a jam. Furthermore, the task you
conduct is just too crucial for you not to
minimize your downtime as much as possible.
