Move parts, products, and assemblies through production with conveyor line systems engineered around your workflow. GLOBAL Automation Technologies combines robotic integration, controls, machine vision, and material handling expertise to create connected lines that support reliable throughput, safer operations, and scalable automation. From a new production concept to modernization of an existing line, our team helps align every station with your manufacturing goals.
Our Conveyor Line Systems Services
Integrated conveyor automation services that connect equipment, improve part flow, and support dependable production performance.
Robotic Material Handling
Integrate conveyors with FANUC robots for inter-station transfers, pick-and-place, racking, de-racking, palletizing, and vision-guided part handling. Each system is engineered around part geometry, cycle time, floor space, controls, and safety requirements.
Build a complete conveyor-connected automation system from process study and simulation through controls design, installation, commissioning, training, and production support. GLOBAL coordinates the equipment, programming, validation, and documentation needed for a unified line.
Modernize existing conveyor and production lines for new products, added capacity, improved automation, or upgraded equipment. GLOBAL evaluates current constraints and integrates robots, controls, and process improvements while helping minimize disruption to production.
A conveyor line is more than a way to move parts—it is the backbone that synchronizes production, and GLOBAL engineers each line around the flow it serves. Work begins with a process study that maps parts, routing, station cycle times, buffers, and floor space, then moves into conveyor selection—belt, roller, chain, slat, or power-and-free—matched to part weight, orientation, and how the line must accumulate, merge, or divert. Controls and PLC zone logic are designed next to coordinate transfers, spacing, and handoffs to robots and machines, with safety guarding, interlocks, and access points built into the layout. GLOBAL then installs and commissions the line and runs it off against the production rate before launch, confirming equipment communication, safety functions, and throughput. With turnkey delivery and technical staffing available, manufacturers gain both the system and the people to help operate it.

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of conveyor can GLOBAL specify for a line?
GLOBAL selects conveyor technology to match the part and the flow, drawing on belt, roller, chain, slat, pallet-transfer, and power-and-free options. Belt and roller conveyors suit stable cartons and totes, chain and slat handle heavier or hot parts, and power-and-free supports asynchronous carriers that stop and start independently along a route. The choice weighs part weight, footprint, surface sensitivity, orientation, and how the line must branch or buffer.
How does GLOBAL handle different part loads and line speeds?
Each conveyor section is sized to the loads it carries and the pace the line requires rather than a single fixed speed. Heavier parts, longer carriers, and inclines call for stronger drives and controlled acceleration, while light or delicate products need gentler transfer and smooth transitions. GLOBAL matches drive type, belt or chain construction, and section speeds to the part so flow stays stable and parts arrive in position without marking or jamming.
Can the line accumulate, merge, and divert parts?
Yes. Accumulation zones let parts queue ahead of a slower station so upstream operations keep running, and merge and divert points combine or split flow between lines and workcells. GLOBAL designs these zones with the sensors, stops, and zone logic needed to control spacing, sequence, and routing. How much buffer and branching a line needs is set by station cycle times, product mix, and where bottlenecks are likely.
How are conveyor controls and zone logic handled?
Conveyor motion is coordinated by PLC controls that manage each zone, transfer, and interlock so sections start, stop, and release parts in the right order. Zone logic tracks part presence, controls accumulation release, and hands off to robots or machines at the correct moment. GLOBAL programs the controls, safety logic, and operator interface together so the line runs as one coordinated system and faults are easy to identify.
Can a new conveyor tie into our existing line?
Yes. Most projects connect new conveyor to equipment already on the floor rather than replacing the whole line. GLOBAL reviews the current layout, control signals, cycle times, and handoff points, then plans the mechanical connections and controls integration around them. A phased approach can add sections or automation while holding downtime to scheduled maintenance windows.
How do layout, footprint, and installation work?
Layout is engineered around available floor space, aisle access, utilities, and how forklifts and operators service the line. GLOBAL confirms elevations, transfers, and clearances during design, often validating flow with simulation before build. Installation is planned around production so sections can be set, connected, and commissioned with disruption held to scheduled maintenance windows.
What support is available after the line is running?
Once the line is commissioned, GLOBAL provides operator and maintenance training, technical documentation, and support for troubleshooting, adjustments, and future changes. Recommended spare parts can be identified for drives, sensors, and controls to help limit downtime. If added coverage is needed, GLOBAL can provide technical staffing alongside the installed system, with service planned between scheduled maintenance windows.
