They cannot be fitted into containers but need wooden boxes on flat rack with high freight charges, especially on long distance destinations, which can somehow influence the customer’s final decision.
In the last two years, RCN SOLUTIONS, attentive to the customers’ requirements and suggestions, has decided to find a way to optimize the cost of transport by finding solution to fit its machines into containers. It has not been an easy job due to some parts that cannot be sectioned which are highly functional to the operating of the machine, such as the heating elements.
The solution has been to consider the shipment in fragmented parts, as much as the technical setting allows, without compromising the full integrity after the re-assembling, and having perfect functions and expected quality results.
Therefore, the first equipment: a two-shelf laminating kiln it is bound to Argentina, where the segments will be combined and installed at the customer’s premises. The machine has been tested internally for some weeks until all the controls have been performed, output results are positive and the production manager has given the green light for shipping.
Since the majority of the installations on site are highly risky due to the pandemic, RCN will provide the customer with all means: written instructions, consultation via video and remote connection, which canbe useful for a handy and quick self-installing in case the RCN specialists will not be in the position to attend the service.
