Assembly line conveyor

Free Flow Conveyor

Our free flow conveyors are customized for palletized assembly lines. The conveyors use 2.5X speed free flow nylon roller chain which enables easy accumulation on the assembly stations. The chain uses a unique combination of small and large rollers to achieve high speed and allows accumulation with low noise.

Free Flow Conveyor

Our free flow conveyors are customized for palletized assembly lines. The conveyors use 2.5X speed free flow nylon roller chain which enables easy accumulation on the assembly stations. The chain uses a unique combination of small and large rollers to achieve high speed and allows accumulation with low noise. The stations are equipped with spring loaded stopper cylinder for stopping of the pallets at the desired station without stopping the entire line. The stopping time at each assembly station is controlled by the operator and the stopper can be disengaged using foot pedal or push button switch.

Online Testing Customization

Customization for online testing can be done by installing single phase/three phase bus bar system with spring loaded power collectors. These power collectors transfer the power supply to the bus bar on the pallets which is transmitted to the assembly through plug and socket. Other customizations include an empty pallet return line under the main line and pallet lifts at both ends to form a closed loop assembly line with automatic transfer of empty pallets from end of the line to the starting of the line.

Closed-Loop & Aging Customization

The system can also be customized with other free flow conveyors for online aging of the assemblies for the desired (often user controlled) time period and into rework lines.

Pallet Fixtures for Delicate Products

For white goods such as LED TVs and other delicate items different types of pallet fixtures are available with EP foam and antistatic cloth for padded protection of the screen. Other customizations can only so be done on need basis.

Working principle

How the free flow conveyor works

Pallets ride on a free flow nylon roller chain that lets them accumulate quietly at each station, while spring-loaded stopper cylinders hold each pallet in place without stopping the rest of the line.

STEP 01
Pallets move at 2.5X speed
The free flow nylon roller chain's small-and-large roller combination drives pallets quickly and quietly.
STEP 02
Stoppers hold the station
Spring-loaded stopper cylinders stop a pallet at its station without halting the rest of the line.
STEP 03
Power reaches the pallet
Bus bar power collectors transfer supply to the pallet for online testing via plug and socket.
STEP 04
Empty pallets return automatically
A return line and pallet lifts close the loop, sending empty pallets back to the start.
