Power and free transport systems, also commonly called asynchronous transport systems, are built on a two-way system in which one of them is power and the other is not. This offers several advantages. Possibly the biggest advantage is that it allows loads to travel at different speeds and loads to be able to start or stop independently of each other.

TWIN-TRAK SIDE-BY-SIDE CONVEYOR

The Twin-Trak Side-by-Side Carrying System is the ideal solution if you have limited overhead space and need to free up space for other free and electrical equipment. It has weight capacities that allow you to haul loads from 10 to 1,000 pounds, and with the system, you can get on and off the main line of travel more often. In addition, the system can be built from existing Richards-Wilcox systems, which, in turn, means cost savings.

With its features, the Twin-Trak system can help you increase throughput by eliminating typical wait time and optimize production by ensuring the right parts reach the right operations in a continuous flow. In this way, the improvement of the efficiency is guaranteed and, at the same time, the maintenance of the quality of the product.

HEAVY-DUTY UPPER AND LOWER CONVEYOR BELT

With a carrying capacity of up to 2,000 pounds in a tandem configuration, the Over-Way Heavy Duty Forklift system combines power and flexibility with a heavy-duty over- and under- carry configuration. This is a result of its robust design and the fact that it is built with high-quality components. For example, its closed race ensures that contaminants do not enter the system and protects the chain from dirt, abrasion and solvents.

These features, combined with its state-of-the-art control systems, allow you to optimize production and ensure the right parts arrive at the right operations at the right time. In addition, it eliminates unnecessary manual transport and production rehandling and maintains a complete record of production information. This allows to increase the efficiency and to maintain the quality of the production.

INVERTED FLOOR CONVEYOR

The Inverted Floor Mount Conveyor is the ideal solution for medium capacity robotic finishing systems, combining the power and capacity with the flexibility of floor mounted systems. The system is available as factory pre-welded modular components and as such is easy to install, maintain and change.

Despite its ease of installation, the system's self-supporting structure is designed with an additional guide rail that provides greater stability when position accuracy is critical, and offers weight capacities ranging from 10 to 1,000 pounds.

The system is also designed to keep products clean and offers optimum ergonomics as the work surfaces can be adjusted. Ultimately, by integrating the processes typically serviced by various types of conveying equipment, you are able to optimize production while reducing energy waste.
