Install

When you invest in a material handling system from DCI you can count on a professional, reliable and efficient installation. Our installation team is experienced in a wide variety of systems, and they have the skill set required to ensure an on-time, properly installed system. Our installers have the attitude and desire to ensure your system is aesthetically appealing and is installed in compliance with all codes, making it extremely safe for your associates to use and operate.

The DCI installation team assigned to your project will be your team from start to finish and will be thoroughly briefed on the project prior to leaving our facility. Our conveyor installation team travels nationwide with fully equipped service trailers containing the machinery, tools and a supply of conveyor components to complete your project. If it is necessary to supplement our crew due to demand, we hand pick additional team members from a pool of skilled millwrights and ensure the majority of your project team is full-time DCI associates.

Testing and Commissioning

Once static checks have been completed, internal tests are conducted by DCI to demonstrate that the system operates as specified by the contract documents.

If system complexity warrants, DCI will develop and issue an Acceptance Test Plan. Once the internal tests are complete and adjustments are made, DCI will conduct a formal acceptance test with customer-supplied product and personnel. Any criteria found to be nonconforming will be corrected and retested as quickly as possible. When the system has been demonstrated to be in compliance with the contract documents, testing is considered successfully completed and the system is turned over for use.
