Scope Notes and Service Definitions

This page clarifies what is included in each service agreement, how machine capacity is measured, and which site conditions affect installation timelines. Read these notes before signing a contract so there are no surprises about delivery, commissioning, or performance testing.

Installation and Commissioning ScopeOur team handles mechanical assembly, electrical hookup, and control system setup. Site preparation, concrete foundations, and overhead crane access are the client's responsibility unless stated otherwise in the quotation. Throughput RatingsCapacity figures are measured on dry, clean product with consistent particle size. Wet product, high foreign material content, or irregular feed rates reduce effective output and may require additional pre-cleaning equipment. Warranty TermsStandard warranty covers parts and labor for twelve months from commissioning date. Wear items such as sorting belts, ejector nozzles, and sensor windows are excluded and covered under the preventive maintenance schedule. Custom Line AdaptationsModifications to existing conveyor layouts, hopper heights, or bagging stations are quoted individually after a site survey. Drawings and load calculations must be approved before fabrication begins. Performance Testing ProtocolEvery line runs a documented trial with the client's own product before handover. Acceptance criteria include sorting accuracy, packaging weight tolerance, and line speed, all measured over a defined production window. Operator Training SessionsTwo full days of on-site training are included with each line. Sessions cover daily startup checks, changeover procedures, calibration steps, and basic fault diagnosis. Additional days can be booked through the support desk.

From Inquiry to Commissioning: Our Working Sequence

Request a Site Assessment

1. Line Audit and Product Sampling

We start by reviewing your current throughput, product mix, and floor layout. A small batch of your actual produce is tested on our pilot sorter so we can measure defect removal and sizing accuracy before any proposal is drafted.

2. Process Design and Specification

Our engineers map the full flow from intake hopper to bagging station. You receive a documented specification covering belt speeds, screen apertures, air knife pressure, and the control interfaces needed to match your existing PLC environment.

3. Fabrication and Shop Testing

Machinery is built in our Australian workshop with stainless steel contact surfaces and crevice-free welds. Before dispatch, each unit runs a full shift under load while our technicians record vibration, noise, and sorting efficiency against the agreed baseline.

4. Installation and Operator Training

Our crew handles the mechanical and electrical hookup on your site. We then train your line operators and maintenance staff on changeover procedures, sensor calibration, and daily sanitation routines so the line runs without constant vendor support.

5. Performance Verification and Handover

After two weeks of live production, we return to verify sorting accuracy, packaging consistency, and line availability. The handover package includes service intervals, spare parts lists, and a documented calibration schedule tailored to your crop calendar.

6. Ongoing Support and Line Extensions

Once the line is running, we stay available for remote diagnostics and scheduled maintenance visits. When your volume grows, the modular frame design lets us add sorting stages or packaging modules without rebuilding the entire conveyor system.

Why processors choose Lamiamlocale

Higher grading accuracy per shift

Optical sorters with multi-spectrum sensors remove defective kernels and foreign material at line speed, so your final batch meets spec without re-running.

Less downtime between changeovers

Tool-free belt and lane adjustments cut product switch time. A single operator can reconfigure the line for a different crop or pack size in under twenty minutes.

Cleaner washdown cycles

Fully welded stainless frames with sloped surfaces and crevice-free joints let your hygiene crew finish faster and pass third-party audits with fewer touch-ups.

Lower product damage in transfer

Variable-speed conveyors and soft-drop chutes reduce bruising on soft produce and fragile grains, which means more saleable weight leaves the facility.

Clearer line performance data

Each machine logs throughput, reject rates, and sensor health. Your maintenance team sees a fault before it stops the line, not after.

Simpler operator training

Touchscreen presets store your exact settings for each product. New staff follow the on-screen prompts instead of memorising manual dials.
