TIVAR® Catalog Package Handling ChutesLine one, you'll line ‘em all: TIVAR DrySlide ends jams at catalog house This national catalog mail order house had its hang-ups. Electronic parts and computers had to fly off the shelves and out the door to meet order deadlines. They had a system of outbound chutes and roller conveyors designed to move orders at top speed. But worn paint and gummed up rollers snagged and slowed packages.
Graphite paint didn't work The maintenance staff had tried graphite paint on the chutes with poor results. First, the paint wore quickly. They had to repaint chutes at least twice a year, and chutes required continual cleaning and dusting to keep surfaces slick. Second, the graphite wore off and stuck to packages, which in turn deposited paint particles on conveyor rollers. The rollers became too slick to grip and propel the packages. Instead of components for customers, jams were the order of the day.
TIVAR DrySlide ends outbound problems The maintenance director decided to test a TIVAR DrySlide liner on one chute for a month, but it only took two weeks for him to pick up the phone. He ordered TIVAR DrySlide linings for the remaining 14 chutes. Packages stayed clean, rollers stayed clean, and more packages moved through each hour. Even on humid summer days, package jams are now a thing of the past. The same goes for chute maintenance. TIVAR DrySlide linings have been in place for nearly two years. Chute liners show no signs of wear, and they have required no cleaning or replacements. In painting time alone, TIVAR DrySlide has saved 3 weeks' time per year.
