Direct Product Handling Conveyors: Fixture-Less Transport & Clean Application
Zero Contact Zone Product Conveyor
This is a zero contact zoned conveyor designed to handle product directly on the conveyor (with no pallet on the conveyor system). Products are conveyed directly on the conveyor belt.
This can be a great solution for handling heavy loads and not having to deal with high wear and tear or potential for damaging products.
- High friction, ‘soft’ durometer conveyor belt. The belt was specifically selected as it has a low durometer rubber coating to provide high friction and give for handling the product.
- Products are conveyed in the system with 100% individual zone control, meaning they never touch each other, but allowing for accumulation of product in areas of the line that require this function.
- It is a standard Zero Contact Zoned Conveyor concept, but utilized with an end driven conveyor vs. our standard center drive. This allowed us to utilize a belt that would normally not work well with the back bends required in a center driven conveyor.
Options
- This unit was DC motor and drive card based but can be driven with any electric motor – AC, stepper / servo, etc.
