Applies to FlexLink Quotation Tool.
Note: Assembly work hours calculator module is a part of Elements tabs
Assembly hours panel is used to determine the estimated assembly time, test and packaging for standard FlexLink systems. Providing the greatest number of elements in a given project will allow for a more accurate system valuation.
Enter sequentially into the calculator, elements that are a part of the project. Described in the design table: screws, washers, rivets are included in the support, slide rail etc. assembly time.
As you fill in data the Assembly Totals at the bottom is continuously updated. You will need to transfer these total hours into your quotation elements manually, they will not be automatically added to the elements.
Conveyor assembly Tab
In this tab you should fill the following fields sequentially
- Choose the particular system.
- Enter the total length in meters.
- Enter the number of conveyors in the system.
- Enter the sum of all bends in system.
- Specify whether the system has covered slots. Covering the slots affects the whole system.
- Specify whether in the system occurs steel slide rails. It applies to the entire system.
