CONVEYOR SYSTEMS,
AGV/AMR

Roller conveyors transport items to their destination over a series of steel rollers. Their modular design means that our roller conveyors can be easily adapted to the specific spatial constraints of a site. Generally speaking, the drive is by means of motorized rollers or drive stations under the line. Chain link conveyors, on the other hand, may, depending on the width of the items being conveyed, be made up of several chain lines, which are kept aligned by special sliding profiles. They are available with various different types of drive and are particularly suitable for the in-house transport of large, heavy items or pallets. Alternatively, you can use belt conveyor to optimize your operational flow or for parcel transport. Belt conveyors can also handle curves and even gradients rather than just straight pathways. They are ideal for small, individual or differently sized parts that cannot be moved on a roller conveyor. When more substantial height differences have to be overcome within a limited space, then lifters or screw conveyors are the right choice. Whilst lifters use lifting drives to overcome height differences, screw conveyors employ the Archimedes’ screw principle. Overhead conveyor systems can convey hanging or flat items as well as packaged items from A to B along a track system that is suspended from the hall ceiling. The major advantage of suspending the transport system from the ceiling is that usable floor space is freed up for value generating activities.

Different mergers ensure that the items to be sorted are reliably transferred from the feeding channel to the sorter or onto the conveyor belt. Whereas the Strip Merger is suitable for a wide range of products including polybags, the Roller Merger is the solution of choice for feeding cardboard boxes.

The Swivel Wheel Module is perfect for double-sided sorting. Integrated in a conveyor line, it makes sure that all parcels are correctly aligned.
