Project Background
The customer operated a labor-intensive manual painting process for plastic automotive parts (front grilles and mirror frames). The allocated area of only ~120 m² was located on the third floor of an existing building, imposing strict weight and height constraints. The factory was remote from industrial support networks and the maintenance professional technicians wasn’t accesible ontime. The objective was to create a modern, high-capacity finishing line capable of handling the high product range—from small parts to large bumpers—while remaining lightweight, easy to operate, and serviceable under these severe spatial and skill limitations.
The challenge was not the painting process itself. The real engineering challenge was creating a fully automated production line inside an extremely restricted installation area while maintaining future production flexibility.
This project was developed as part of our CONVEYOR solutions for high variation product manufacturers with space area limitation.
Challenge 01
Limited Installation Area
Only about 120 m² of building third floor was available for the complete production line.
Challenge 02
Structural Load Restrictions
Building structural load limits required the lightest possible equipment package.
Challenge 03
Low Ceiling Height
Maintenance accessibility had to be preserved despite limited vertical clearance.
Challenge 04
Limited Technical Resources
The customer required a highly reliable system with minimal dependence on skilled technicians.
Our Engineering Approach
Step 01
Engineering Analysis
BESTIR evaluated structural limitations, production targets and future expansion requirements before selecting the conveyor concept.
Step 02
Triplex Conveyor Design
The Inverted Triplex Power & Free Conveyor was selected to transport products ranging from small plastic parts to full-size automotive bumpers. Learn More
Step 03
Mechanical Intelligence
Instead of relying on complex electronics, critical production functions were solved through mechanical engineering.
Step 04
Weight Optimization
Every major component was redesigned to minimize dead load while preserving structural strength.
Step 05
Maintenance Optimization
Rotating equipment and service areas were positioned to allow fast maintenance within the limited installation space.
Step 06
Future Expansion
The line was engineered to support bumper production without requiring major structural modifications.
