Lec Refrigeration - Bognor Regis

Lec Refrigeration is one of the largest manufacturers of white goods in Europe, and the implementation of a multi-million pound investment by their parent company gave them the opportunity to revolutionise production in their new plant. Welconstruct worked closely with the Lec team, designing installing and commissioning a system which has turned the plant into one of the most advanced manufacturing facilities in the world.

Fire rated mezzanine floors were erected to maximize an 8 metre headroom, and a powered roller conveyor system was installed to provide efficient transportation of goods. Belt conveyors were fed to the mezzanine floors and a live storage system was installed to accommodate parts. The entire scheme utilises 1.5 km of powered conveyor, 1km of gravity conveyor, 14 high-speed elevators and 22 specifically designed turntables.

At the heart of the scheme is a PC based programme and monitoring system. This supervises the bar code reader network, and the 10 PLCs that are strategically placed throughout the plant, all integrated to ensure accurate tracking movement.
