* Annual Maintenance
Newton require an annual maintenance plan to continue to operate.
Newton Chute Lite is included FREE of charge with any Sidewinder license. However, it requires a current Sidewinder annual maintenance plan to continue operating passed the first year. Newton Chute, which is simply a more powerful version of Newton Chute Lite, is a standalone program. It can be purchased separately from Sidewinder (however many conveyor designers find these programs work well together).
