COMPACT-SIZE CONVEYOR
Heat and Control’s new FastBack FDXForce Displacement drives are said to be 40% smaller than comparable inertia drive horizontal motion conveyors and convey up to 2,500 pounds, making it ideal for transfer runs up to 100 feet long and product accumulation up to 300 cubic feet. The patent-pending FDXinteria drive provides the same clean horizontal motion conveying that reduces product damage and transmitted vibration. FDXcan also be reused with different pans when line layouts change.

HIGH-INTENSITY SEPARATION CONVEYOR
Bunting Magnetics introduced high-intensity and Eddy current separation conveyors, designed for extreme high gauss levels of magnetic separation and removal of lightly magnetic tramp metals. Made with 300 series stainless steel, all para-magnetic materials are removed before Eddy current separation. These conveyors separate extremely light magnetic material out of plastic regrind and flake materials for product purification and separate stainless-steel screws and green board material from the product stream.

CONVEYORS FOR INTERNATAL LOGISTICS FLEXIBILITY
Interroll’s new EC310 24V DC RollerDrive and ConveyorControl technology helps North American logistics providers lower operating costs while enabling greater internal logistics flexibility in major distribution centers. The EC310 24V solution reduces energy consumption by up to 30% compared to conventional systems. It also integrates seamlessly into new or existing logistics systems with its compact, integral 24V DC motor, electronics and gears, all designed to simplify systems planning and construction. The ConveyorControl delivers flexibility by dividing conveyor systems into individual zones and segments for controlling speed, rotation direction and logic. The EC310 is maintenance-free, requires no additional lubrication and its run-on-demand technology ensures less wear by running only when needed.
