Overview
The Roller Zero Pressure DC Conveyor (RZPDC) is very quiet, low profile, and modular for system flexibility. This conveyor is often used to accumulate cartons and totes. Each zone has adjustable speed to pull gaps. The brushless 24 V DC motor provides dynamic breaking to keep heavier loads within a zone.
Applications
- General accumulation in warehouses and distribution centers
- Upstream of sawtooth merges and operator stations
- Effective singulation of products for downstream processing
- Pick modules
Benefits
- Provides zero pressure (non-touching) accumulation of products
- Adjustable speed and acceleration by zone
- Energy efficient motor sleeps when not in use
- Eases stress on upstream and downstream equipment by buffering and regulating product
- Does not require compressed air
- Energy efficient DC motors create whisper-quiet operations
- Relatively low torque motors are safer for operator interactions
- Sleek, low profile design provides a professional, clean appearance
- Dynamic zoning between products
Features
- Built-in accumulation logic
- Low-profile, 4.5 inch tall side frames
- Slug or singulation release logic
- Pinpoint LED photoeye at each zone for low profile product (greater than 1/2”)
- Dynamic zones to accommodates products longer than a physical zone length
- Includes fixed aluminum extruded guide rail (other options available)
- Plastic extruded channel cover to protect the electronics and wiring included
- Durable powder coat finish
- Metallic “ZiPline Silver” frame color
