Shuttleworth Sustainability

Shuttleworth can help improve the throughput, yield, and efficiency metrics in your production cycle:

Shuttleworth is a company that provides solutions to the problems in your manufacturing and packaging process. We will work as an extension of your engineering group to develop custom solutions to improve your line efficiency, first pass yield, and overall throughput metrics.

The gentle handling design of Slip-Torque allows greater flexibility in package design for sustainability. Shuttleworth’s first choice is to handle your product directly on the conveyor surface to eliminate the need for pallets. The lower line pressure associated with Slip-Torque conveyor allows for the reduction of packaging material while delivering a quality product to your downstream operations.

How we manufacture our product:

Shuttleworth’s chain drive conveyor is powered by fractional HP motors, typically ¼ - 1/2 HP.

Energy efficient options are available for installation on your next automation system:

Shuttleworth supports recycling initiatives through the careful selection of our raw materials (various plastic and metal types) to maximize the ability to recycle components.

Upgrading and End of Life Value:

The modular design and construction of the equipment encourages re-configuration rather than de-commissioning of the equipment. Shuttleworth will help you determine the most cost effective combination of re-configured and new equipment to meet your needs as they exist and as they change.

If your system is de-commissioned the product can be easily disassembled to the component level to help maximize the effectiveness of recycling the equipment. The majority of components will fall into the following categories:

We encourage you to contact Shuttleworth so we can assist in identifying the specific recyclable products in your system. Our service department is available to assist in the de-commissioning of our equipment.

Equipment that we manufacture and sell has our name on it and we are committed to making this a positive experience for our customers through the life of the product. At Shuttleworth, we are not looking to become your supplier- we are looking to become your business partner. Now that’s sustainable!
