Two production steps in the manufacture of shafts for spinning machines need to be interlinked. The customer requires a compact workpiece carrier circulation system for round, upright products. A worker loads the workpiece carriers, which are to be conveyed around 90° to the next…
Problem definition
Food production application requires automated interlinking of multiple production steps and circulation of pallets. Multiple pallets with relatively high loads need to be transported. The conveyor systems need to be able to buffer the pallets. Pass-through clearances need to be…
Problem definition
Stacked pallets need to be dynamically buffered in a food production application. A storage capacity of about 500 pallets is required, which corresponds to about 30,000 products.
mk Solution
Buffer consisting of ZRF-P 2040.02 timing belt conveyors on two levels. The timing belt…
Stacked pallets in a food production application need to be lifted so that they can be buffered on multiple levels. Pallet stacks weighing 50 kg each need to be transported. The stroke length is approximately 3300 mm. The machine needs to lift and lower but also convey in order…
Problem definition
In a food production application, stacked pallets need to be rotated by 90° and then further transported in the same direction so that they can be transferred to a buffer system. The pallets have a length/width ratio of 1 : 2.5, which is unfavourable for rotary motion. One pallet…
Problem definition
An existing interlink for transferring pallets in a food production application needs to be expanded. Capacities and production need to be increased from about 500 pallets to around 1500 pallets. This corresponds to approximately 100,000 products in the final expansion stage.…
Transporting unpackaged food products to which granules are adhered. The food products are transported laterally onto a horizontal transport line. They need to be transported away and conveyed upwards at an angle. Applicable food production regulations need to be complied with.
In a production system for industrial filters, multiple, separate machining stations need to be interlinked. The interlinks should be as compact as possible. Products of different sizes need to be processed with minimal retooling times. The machine tools should also be able to…
Sheets of various sizes need to be conveyed in a metalworking application. The conveyor technology needs to be easily adjustable for different sheet formats. It also needs to be mobile and flexible. The solution needs to support a total load of 100 kg, and only low speeds are…
To position and package tubes, empty trays must be advanced to a positioning station. Tubes are loaded into the trays, which are again discharged upon completion. The loaded trays are then advanced to a packaging system.
A flat top chain conveyor advances the empty…
