Conveyors 

Operate your process in a building featuring conveyor capabilities

For materials that are too bulky or heavy to move through a process or facility with lift trucks or fixed, floor-mounted conveyors, monorails and workstation cranes can move and position loads. They maximize the vertical space in a facility by transporting loads overhead. We have extensive experience in developing the intelligent infrastructure tailor-made to integrate monorails and workstation cranes.

High speed project realization

All our buildings are prefabricated and delivered ready to assemble.

When our prefabricated buildings are delivered, they are ready to assemble. The use of prefabricated elements (components are produced in the plant on automated production lines) gives the construction phase many sustainable benefits. The “pre-engineering” method and the precision of the steel structures shorten the assembly time and reduce the environmental impact and the disturbance of the neighborhood on your construction site.

All components of the supporting structure are custom-made in our plant. Astron field assembly consists of simple bolted or screwed connections. No welding, cutting, modification or "wet work" is required. All parts are pre-cut, pre-drilled, individually identified at the factory and supplied with an assembly drawing.
