What Customers Are Saying
"In 2019 our manufacturing wood processing facility hit a max processing capacity. We searched around and talked to other conveyor manufacturer companies and was referred to Fluent Conveyors. We had a concept design of a conveyor take would stack piles for cut wood being fed from our trommel screen into numerous 30 foot high piles in a 360 degree radius. Once we contact Fluent Conveyors we knew we found the correct conveyor supplier to help us. Withing 2 weeks we had our fully customized trough pivot conveyor engineered and on order. It has been over a year and our facility has maximized the volume of this system and it has allowed us to grow our bottom line with a 100% increase in our production and a decrease in employee wages. Thank you Fluent Conveyors for taking the time to go on this journey and creating a complete conveyor system for only our application."
