Conveyor System for Heavy-Duty Trays (Vehicles)

Task: Conveying and buffering of heavy parts on workpiece carriers

Brake calipers for trucks have to be conveyed in pairs from the storage area to a assembly line at a distance of 17m
Due to the layout of the hall, it is not possible to design the conveyor line as a straight, but it has to be angled after a third of the way
The brake calipers (with a unit weight of 45kg) are feeded onto a work piece carrier by means of a crane (Total weight of the loaded work piece carrier: approx. 110kg)
The conveyor line between storage and assembly area has to be able to buffer work piece carriers
It is necessary to convey the empty work piece carriers back to the starting point
The maximum quantity of loaded work piece carriers in circulation is 8
The system has to be laid out for relatively rough operating conditions

Solution: Robust curved conveyor belt with heavy-duty lifting stations

Conveyor line with two levels and two heavy-duty lift stations at the top ends
Angular transfer without additional curve conveying technique is possible using special trays with guide rollers
All conveyors are equipped with a robust polyester belt
Rolling carrying run for energy-saving conveying
All sensors are covered with protection plates
Stabile underframe executed as steel-welded construction with aluminium profiles to support the conveyor
Complete lining of the interspaces between upper and lower conveying level with polycarbonate
Safety enclosure with light barriers around the the lift stations
S7 control for steering a total of 8 conveyors and 2 lift stations, incl. appendant sensor technology
Complex safety package with rope switches along the total conveying line
Complete operating test incl. final inspection on the MTF site
Installation of the complete system incl. setting up operation and briefing on the the customer's site within one day
