Assembly of the units can be easily carried out from above – and without tools. The choice available covers a diversity of rollers, ball rollers, brush and slide units. Importantly, all units can be freely combined.
There are roller shapes to accommodate many types of application, each designed specifically to meet special requirements regarding running smoothness, centre distance and load capacity.
Also supplied are 28mm diameter rollers, with a flange for lateral guidance. Meanwhile, the 9mm version, which has a very small centre distance and maximum number of axles, is designed to build tracks that run very smoothly, with minimum vibration. It provides a reduced point load on the goods and is said to be well suited for use with very soft cardboard or other sensitive packaging.
All units are available as electrostatically conductive versions, while the various colours available make them highly suitable for Kanban applications.
Ball rollers and brush units provide solutions for moving goods in two directions, even transversely to the track direction – for example, at track switches and material locks. End plates close the end face of the track profile safely and provide a defined end stop. They also allow for attachment of buffer stops and are compatible with the 28mm diameter round tube system.
