Conveyors & Material Movers

With the Eriez E-Z Slide Horizontal Motion Conveyor (HMC), damage to friable or delicate products caused by the hopping and tumbling action common to typical conveyors and feeders is a thing of the past.

AutoSorter 1200 is Yaskawa Motoman's newest high-speed sorting instrument for pre- and post-analytic specimen processing.

MYS-series 4-axis SCARA robots from Yaskawa Motoman Robotics are for high-speed handling and assembly systems.

The time proven Kanban system is a series of cards that represent visual cues containing routing information, process procedures and component data functions as a scheduling system for continuous improvement, lean and just-in-time production. The Kanban system allows participants to achieve the objectives of reducing costs by eliminating waste and scrap, improving quality control, developing flexible workstations responsive to change, and allowing workers to reach their maximum potential. Should a Kanban system not be presented in its own level of simplicity, it can add confusion and disorder to the process. For example, a large, bulky filing system for storing and distributing the cards can quickly undermine its acceptance and use. The simple answer is to build Kanban Stations using the Creform System of plastic coated steel pipe and joint components along with Creform Kanban plastic dividers and spacers that provide compartmental storage for the cards.

PRAB's unique Pivot Belt conveyor is engineered specifically for moving oily, thin-gauge trim scrap, stamping slugs, motor laminations and eyelet press scrap without carryover.

Yaskawa Motoman Robotics says its MH3F robot offers superior performance in small part handling and assembly.

Two new additions to the LNS America Alpha line of lower-cost bar feeders provide consistent bar support and smooth, reliable bar loading for enhanced precision machining performance.

Creform Corp. introduced a new style of workstation that is easily mobilized to provide a work-anywhere surface for maintenance or assembly operations.

The H-Bot by ATS Systems removes common barriers to automated parts loading for CNC lathes.

Kardex Remstar has extended its portfolio for the RS series, the latest generation of the proven vertical carousel, by introducing the new Megamat RS 180.

Creform Corp. has developed a drawbridge shelf cart that is ideally suited for protecting and delivering totes, containers or unpackaged parts from warehouse to sequential operations in production.

PRAB Inc. has engineered and manufactured chip and fluid filtration systems for over 60 years. Throughout the last decade, as more metal working companies recognize the cost savings and operational advantages in optimizing their scrap metal processing, PRAB has expanded its chip and fluid systems offering to include more modular equipment layout.
