Individual transportation facilities will be placed in the context of an industrial enterprise, and will be explained in detail their use in transport and technological processes. This is mainly conveyors, handling equipment, cranes and hoists in connection with the use of a wide range of industries (energy, automotive, mining and processing of raw materials, food, light and heavy industries).
