ZERO PRESSURE ROLLER CONVEYORS

The zero pressure roller conveyor system is designed for non-contact accumulation and buffering of sensitive or fragile loads.

The conveyor is equipped with logical sensors and can therefore also be independently operated from an overall material flow control system e.g. stand-alone mode for manually actuated release of queues.

In this way non-automated conveyor systems can be updated with accumulating and buffering tracks. When integrating into an automated system only start and stop signals are required.

After the unit loads have run in, individual independent track segments are disconnected from the drive whilst simultaneously decelerating the rollers in that segment. This allows for throughput speeds of up to 3600 units depending on the material being carried.

Advantages:

• Contactless Accumulation
• Equipped with internal logic and supplied ready for connection
• Highly Flexible
• Minimum maintenance
• Low Noise Level
