I-beam overhead conveyors are available in various configurations and designs to suit different applications and load requirements. Here is a general product overview of I-beam overhead conveyors
1. Track Types:
– Open Track: Open track systems have an open design with a I-shaped profile. They are more economical and offer easy access for maintenance and cleaning. It provides smooth and quiet operation.
2. Load Carriers:
– Trolleys: Trolleys are the primary load carriers in an I-beam overhead conveyor. They come in different styles and designs, such as push trolleys, power-and-free trolleys, and manual or motorized trolleys.
3. Drive Systems:
Motor-riven systems use electric motors and drive chains to propel the trolleys along the track. They provide consistent and controlled movement.
4. Control Systems:
Some I-beam overhead conveyors may have basic manual controls, allowing operators to start, stop, and adjust the speed manually.
Advanced systems employ automation technologies such as programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and human-machine interfaces (HMIs) for precise control over conveyor operation.
