DKI
Consultancy Services are provided as a consultant's view from the
perspective of the customer, not the supplier. Advice and recommendations
are not product specific. They are related to industry best practice,
based on intimate knowledge of the industry and leading edge automation
technology.
Following are just some of the services DKI can deliver.
Site
Modelling & Analysis (SMA)
Survey the customer's site to establish baseline engineering and
operational data.
Load
Rack Modeling
Model
loading and configuration data in DKI's proprietary software, Load
Rack Modeller, to analyse current performance and potential options
for improvement.
Gantry
Configuration Options
Combine
modelling output and engineering data to create appropriate
configuration options for improving site performance. |
