DMW&H Systems: Line of zero-pressure accumulation conveyors

Zero-pressure accumulation conveyors for carton, unit load handling A line of zero-pressure accumulation conveyors transport and accumulate cartons and unit loads for queuing up to feed into sortation equipment, palletizers or other materials handling equipment. Once an item has accumulated, the driving pressure beneath the item is removed so products do not touch. Ideal for providing a buffer zone, the conveyors hold back a steady stream of products when downstream processes aren’t ready for additional product. The conveyors are comprised of rollers with photoelectric sensors and on-board zone logic to control drive actuation. When the photo sensor notifies the zone controller that a product is present, it will not activate the drive rollers. Once the sensor identifies a clear zone, drive rollers are activated to release the product to the next zone in a spaced sequence.
