Pallet transport system HEAVY

It is designed for inter-operational transport on assembly lines. The assembled part is carried on a carrier on two flat conveyor belts moving in parallel. In individual technological steps, the carrier with the part can be stopped with high precision, while the belts under the carrier slip and the carriers have no positional link between each other (they move independently).

Properties I

before each technological operation there may be a queue of several carriers which creates a buffer stock to cover the unevenness of the process cycle
operator is not forced to adhere to a fixed machine cycle
easy to change the shape of the assembly line, or include a new work cell in the existing line
existing parts of the conveyor system during changeover to a new production

Properties II

through exchanging the carrier, there is a possibility to assemble products of similar type on a single line, or branch the technology flow
each carrier may store data on individual technological operations in its own memory
based on that information, defective pieces can be rejected returned after the rework
each PTS system station can be gradually expanded by dedicated installations which will result in fully automatic production

Examples of the asembly line layou

Due to flexibility of the conveyor system, each assembly line is adapted to the specific requirements of every application.

Linear assembly line

The carrier (once travels all the track and after the final product is removed from the carrier) returns to the beginning of the assembly by lift and lower conveyor.

Circular assembly line

Four conveyors and four movable stations form a ring in which the technological operations follow each other.

Circular assembly line with parallel branchesi

This arrangement has some additional options compared to the conventional circular assembly line: rework or scrap defective pieces, or multiple types of products can circulate in the line that have stops in different branches.
