Ecoclean PZR - Powered Zone Roller Conveyor
Powered Zone Roller Conveyor (PZR) is a modular handling solution that
allows parts to accumulated without contacting one another. Standard PZR
are arranged in a series of "zones," with each zone driven by a
bi-directional motor. Parts are driven out of a zone only when the next
zone is vacant, so parts can accumulate without the need for pallets.
Flexibility of application distinguishes Powered Zone Roller
systems from conventional floor conveyors. PZR Conveyors come in standard
lengths, allowing a floor layout to be assembled more quickly. Application
engineers can place PZR modules into layouts without lengthening and
shortening every unit, as is required with most conveyor solutions. The
PZR Conveyor's tread and drive concepts are inherited by other members of
the PZR family (turntables, shuttles, rail-guided vehicles). This
commonality of design simplifies planning and reduces the number of unique
spare parts that must be stocked.
Fields of Application
- Handles non-palletized parts, parts on pallets
- Automotive parts (cylinder blocks, cylinder heads)
- Aerospace components
- Crates, boxes, etc.
Benefits
- Unlimited accumulation without shock-absorbing escapements or stops
- Parts/Pallets do not touch during
accumulation
--fewer pinch points or finger traps - PZR operates only when part/pallet is
present
--reduces environmental noise, conserves energy and descreases power consumption - 115 volt motor on tread section connects via standard 5-pin
socket/cable and has sealed gearhead
--requires no lubrication (is "lubed for life") - Alluminum extruded side rails, aluminum chain guard, zinc-plated metal components, scratch-resistant powder coating leg
- Common components throughout PZR family
