M6 + mk: Engineering Expertise Meets Proven Technology.

We're excited to announce a partnership that significantly expands our conveyor capabilities: M6 Revolutions is partnering with mk North America to bring you the comprehensive modular conveyor solutions you need with the technical expertise to implement them right.

As your trusted solutions provider, we anticipate that this strategic partnership will solve one of manufacturing's biggest automation challenges for you: getting conveyor technology that actually delivers the productivity gains everyone promises.

The mk Advantage: Breadth of Solutions

Founded in 1988, mk North America brings nearly 60 years of German engineering expertise with a unique modular approach that eliminates the custom fabrication headaches plaguing most conveyor projects. This means predictable costs through standardized components, faster delivery with pre-engineered modules (4-6 weeks vs. 12+ weeks), future expandability as your manufacturing needs evolve, and German engineering reliability with American manufacturing and support.

This is precisely the reason we chose mk as our conveyor solutions technology partner. With over 20 different conveyor types and 250+ standardized components, mk gives us the right technology for virtually any manufacturing application—something that complements our existing automation expertise perfectly.

What Research Shows About Conveyor ROI

Recent manufacturing research across multiple industries reveals something remarkable: conveyor system optimizations consistently deliver measurable productivity gains ranging from 4% to 42%, with additional operational benefits including:

• Up to 50% labor cost reduction through optimized material flow

• 27% increase in equipment longevity from reduced manual handling stress

• 9-20% reduction in cycle times in assembly operations

  
  

More importantly, these improvements typically pay for the entire conveyor investment within 3-6 months—making this one of the fastest ROI opportunities in manufacturing automation.

Real Partnership Results: Research-Backed Success

The productivity research we referenced earlier shows exactly why this partnership makes sense. One study documented a 34.29% productivity increase on an automotive cathodic electrodeposition line after optimizing jig density and loading patterns—the kind of application-specific engineering that the M6 + mk partnership delivers.

Another case showed 19.29% improvement in Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) through automated management system integration—exactly the type of comprehensive solution we provide when combining mk's modular conveyors with our automation expertise.

These documented results demonstrate what happens when proven conveyor technology meets proper application engineering.

How mk's Technology Portfolio Changes Your Options

Instead of forcing your application into a limited conveyor selection, mk's unprecedented breadth gives us the right tool for every manufacturing challenge:

20+ Conveyor Types including belt, chain, timing belt, flat top chain, modular plastic belt, and roller systems—each engineered for specific applications and load requirements.

250+ Standardized Components means we can configure solutions without custom fabrication delays, welding, or budget surprises.

Complete Application Coverage from ultra-compact 30mm height installations for tight spaces to heavy-duty systems handling up to 2,200 lbs for automotive and industrial applications.

This variety is what separates mk from single-solution conveyor manufacturers. Whether you need precision indexing, flexible routing, accumulation, or simple transport, mk has proven technology designed specifically for that application.

The Problem This Partnership Solves

Here's what we've learned from years of automation projects: most conveyor failures aren't technology problems—they're selection and integration problems.

You've probably seen this scenario: A manufacturer invests $75K in a "custom" conveyor system, only to discover it doesn't integrate properly with existing automation, creates new bottlenecks, or requires constant maintenance. Six months later, they're dealing with reliability issues and questioning the entire investment.

The M6 + mk difference: We bring the engineering expertise to specify the right mk solution for your specific application, then integrate it with your existing automation ecosystem. What's more is that we can also determine other manufacturing opportunities in your systems, letting you dream big using solutions that actually work.

Complete Ecosystem Integration: The M6 Advantage

What makes this partnership revolutionary is how mk conveyors integrate with our existing technology relationships:

Omron Integration: PLCs, HMIs, and AMR coordination with MK conveyors

Yaskawa Robotics: Seamless robot-to-conveyor handoffs and synchronized motion

Weber Screwdriving: Precision assembly stations with conveyor positioning

Zimmer Grippers: End-of-arm tooling optimized for conveyor applications

Integration Example: An mk timing belt conveyor with precision fixtures transporting parts past a Yaskawa robot equipped with Zimmer grippers, followed by a Weber screwdriving station—all controlled by Omron automation. Complete system synchronization delivering consistent cycle times.

What This Partnership Means for Your Projects

Before: Conveyor Headaches

• Custom fabrication delays and cost overruns

• Integration challenges with existing automation

• Limited expansion options as needs change

  
  

After: M6 + mk Solutions

• Standardized modules reduce project risk and timeline

• Expert installation with your existing automation technology

• Modular expandability growing with your manufacturing needs

• Lifetime partnership support from M6's technical team

  
  

Implementation: Our proven process combines mk's standardized components with M6's integration expertise—from initial assessment and system specification through installation and commissioning.

ROI You Can Count On

Based on documented customer results, here's what mk conveyor implementations typically deliver:

Small Parts Assembly: 15% productivity improvement + labor reduction = 1.9-month payback

Heavy Manufacturing: Labor elimination + cycle time reduction = 9.9-month payback

Mixed Production Lines: Combined productivity and efficiency gains = 1.8-month payback

These aren't projections—they're measured results from actual implementations
