Initial post

Your company will be building a conveyor that will travel collected scrap metal from heavy presses to an outdoor collection bin. The conveyor is located in a large open ended pit, like a hallway, beneath the presses and below the surface of the floor. It will be controlled from a station at the end of the press line and out of sight from the control station. It will be one continuous belt that delivers from the building to a covered area where open scrap bins are located. What are your concerns?
