Questions customers also ask

Useful questions before you compare machinery

Use the questions below to prepare the information needed for a useful recommendation.

Which guide should I start with?

Start with the machine-selection guide if you are comparing equipment, or the complete-line guide if several machines must work together.

Do the guides replace a quotation or specification?

No. They help you prepare the information needed for an accurate machinery proposal and trial.

What should I prepare before a sample trial?

Prepare representative product and packaging, the hardest normal format, enough material for setup and a written list of pass/fail results.

What is the difference between factory and site testing?

Factory testing checks the machine before dispatch. Site testing confirms performance after installation using your utilities, operators and connected equipment.

Can Lancing help prepare the requirement?

Yes. Send the product, pack, output, site information and the production result you need.
