Frequently Asked Questions
We know that investing in new equipment is a big decision. To help you feel confident about the ModularMount system, here are answers to some of the most common questions we receive.
Can I really upgrade the ModularMount without replacing the whole system?
Yes, you can upgrade the ModularMount without replacing the whole system. The ModularMount is designed to allow you to evolve step by step from manual operation all the way to fully automatic functionality. Each component is built as an independent module, which can be easily retrofitted or upgraded at any stage during the lifetime of the machine. This flexibility ensures your system can adapt to your changing needs, whether you’re enhancing automation, integrating new technologies, or improving efficiency. With the ModularMount, you can future proof your investment and extend the life of your machine without the cost or disruption of a complete replacement.
How difficult is it to upgrade the system as we grow?
The complexity of upgrading the system depends on the level of additional automation you wish to add. However, each module is specifically designed to make retrofitting straightforward, ensuring minimal disruption and downtime during the process. Many upgrades can be carried out by your own team, while more advanced installations may require the expertise of a Heaford engineer. This flexible approach allows you to scale and adapt your system as your business grows, ensuring a seamless transition and maintaining operational efficiency every step of the way.
Will my operators need special training to use the more advanced versions?
As additional features are added, it’s important that operators receive training to ensure they can fully utilise and benefit from the new capabilities. Training can be delivered in various formats—face-to-face, video, or written materials—tailored to the needs of your operators. This ensures they are confident and proficient in using the more advanced versions, maximising the efficiency and performance of your ModularMount system.
Is the ModularMount compatible with our existing presses or just new ones?
Yes, the ModularMount is compatible with both your existing presses and new ones. It can be configured at the point of purchase or retrofitted later to accommodate multiple different press types that you currently use or may add in the future. The only requirements are that the presses do not exceed the maximum web width or the maximum repeat range of the ModularMount model you have purchased. This flexibility ensures seamless integration with your current and future equipment.
What kind of maintenance does the ModularMount system require?
The ModularMount system requires minimal maintenance thanks to its robust design and high-quality components, which are rated for high production volumes. During installation and training, you’ll receive full maintenance instructions to ensure the system operates smoothly and efficiently. Additionally, the mounters are equipped with remote connectivity, enabling remote support and training if required. This feature allows for quick troubleshooting, software updates, and operator guidance, ensuring maximum uptime and long-term reliability. Our global team of engineers can also provide technical support, service, preventative maintenance and top-up or new user training both remotely and at your facility.
