The advancements in 24V Motor Driven technology and the high tech world of control cards make MDR conveyors extremely versatile. Transportation and zero pressure accumulation are two typical applications of MDR. Choosing zero pressure accumulation MDR typically reflects a higher up front cost, however, the long term savings by only having active zones as the product conveys down the lane will lower the operating costs and reduce noise.
MDR - Motor Driven Roller Conveyor
- Smooth and quiet operation
- Less vertical frame height space required than other competing conveyor technologies
- Speeds from 20 - 200 FPM
- Standard designs can be modified to transport heavier loads if needed
- Multiple controls options available
- Transportation and zero pressure systems
Saves Space
- Saves space by eliminating traditional power transmission components, multiple conveyor lines can be tiered taking up less vertical space
- Frames can mount directly to the floor also adding to available space
Quiet Operation
- Conveyor rollers are equipped with low noise ABEC bearings
- No noisy reducers, high voltage motors or drive chains also assist in the quiet operation of MDR conveyor
Reduced Maintenance and Spare Parts Inventories
- Zero pressure requires no pneumatic components
- No traditional power transmission components required
Saves Energy
- Conveyor is controlled so that rollers are off when no product is detected, the result is less power consumption ("Run on Demand" feature)
Reduced Installation Costs
- High installation costs of making electric drops for connection to high voltage AC motors is greatly reduced
- Modular components are pre-wired. Simply bolt conveyor section together and plug together the power and control connectors
Modular Components
- Easily configured systems
- Simply unplug and unbolt the conveyor sections from each other and arrange them to meet your future needs
Reduced Down Time
- Rollers can be easily replaced
Zero Pressure Accumulation Features
- Cascade release
- Slug release
- Internal logic
- External PLC logic
Accessory Equipment
- Tapered Roller Curves
- 30° and 45° spurs
- 90° transfer
- Diverters
