Keeping things smart
By retrofitting, we mean modernizing various parts of an existing conveyor system. Whether you need to revamp a single tote handling area or your entire system, we can handle it. At Schwingshandl we’re experts in making existing systems smarter through upgrades, performance enhancements, process adjustments, and the replacement of discontinued parts. The key is deciding exactly what needs changing, and then developing a suitable retrofit concept. Our solutions incorporate mechanics, control technologies and materials and warehouse management systems.
For you this means:
- Lower costs, because upgrading is less expensive than buying new
- Better performance from an existing system
- New features and smart solutions
- Increased energy efficiency
- A longer service life
