Monorail Overhead Conveyors
This types of conveyor has been studied in order to realize a rational and cheap system to transport little and medium loads. In these installations we use an orthogonal axes chain suitable to obtain horizontal and vertical curves also with little radius without necessity of using sprocket rollers in the curves. The ballbearing wheels have diameter of 30mm for type A 111; 37mm for type A 112; 42mm for type A 113; 45mm for type A 114 and 47mm for type A 115 (the max exercice temperature for the bearings is 200°C).
The straight rail is contructed in double moulded profil plate, with connecting welded rail plates.
The constructing is realized on models to assure the complete linearity of the connecting of the various pieces, straight and curved. The driving units are realized as caterpillar type; in case of special problems of exercice, they can be constructed with sprocket driving wheel Z=10 pitch 200mm. Near after the driving unit we mount a take-up screw unit in order to maintain the regular chain tension.
