Nissan Fuel Tank Conveyor
In 2006, FATA Automation Limited supplied a Fuel Tank Delivery conveyor system to Nissan as part of their NIMS general systems improvement programme.
Various model types of fuel tanks are manually loaded to the conveyor in build schedule order from stillages in the tank delivery area.
Tanks initially travel at low level through a series of belt conveyors to a drop lifter which raises them to another series of high level belt conveyors that feed the tanks to line side. At this point they lower to floor level on further drop lifters to align with the vehicle where they are installed.
