VXL Technologies helps Railex increase functionality and efficiency of garment conveyor system
By integrating 3D printing into both prototyping and production stages, VXL Technologies was able to reduce development time, increase product reliability, and save on costs for Railex by using transfer connections made on LC Magna.
The conveyors designed for Railex are traditionally used for garment handling on hangers. The project involved developing an updated transfer conveyor system with VXL Technologies, leveraging 3D printed parts to connect and integrate seamlessly with other systems manufactured by various vendors.
Shorter iteration times combined with increased feature capabilities have allowed VXL to design parts that perform the functions of transfers and connections with higher reliability. This has led to more robust and dependable conveyor systems.
“Thanks to having 3d printing as an alternative we were able to reduce development and production time significantly enough to be in pace with making deadlines on production.”
