See the diagrams below for further illustration of the Conveyor Machine run
parameters.
For all the machine types in this module, optional characteristics such as loss, scheduled
stops, changeovers, reliability, and controls may be defined.
R EMARKS
All of the machine types have the same dialog boxes for Run Options, Controls, Loss,
Production and Changeovers, Reliability, Scheduled Stops, Costs, and Animation. Refer
to these dialog boxes for more information.
The nominal run speed is usually thought of as the maximum speed at which the machine
can maintain a consistent production of quality units.
The module connected to the input line(s) of a Basic, Assembly, or Conveyor Machine
must be a Conveyor or Machine Link module. See the “Filling Machines” notes below
regarding connecting modules to the inputs of a Filling Machine.
The module connected to the output line of any Machine module must be a Conveyor or
Machine Link module.
