CONVEYOR SYSTEMS FOR BOXES AND TRAYS MECOM®
FAST AND SAFE CONVEYOR SYSTEMS FOR TRAYS AND UNIT LOADS High customer requirements for readiness to deliver and availability call for new logistics concepts. The conveying systems mecom® effectively implements logistics solutions for both simple and complex material flows. Modularly structured elements transport, sort, distribute, stack, store and pick the goods to be conveyed, in each case guaranteeing process-oriented execution. Our optimally designed standard system elements, such as belt transfers, diverters, turntable transfers, etc. are suited for horizontal transport. Vertical connections often form the nodes of a system. For high capacity requirements, our elevators, lifts or paternosters provide a perfect solution. Floors can be connected to one another up to a height of 70 m. Together with you, we analyse the process steps at your facility, so that the conveying and picking systems used are tailored to your needs.
CONVEYOR SYSTEMS FOR PALLETS
The new-generation of the standardized pallet conveyor elements, developed and manufactured by Gilgen, offer efficient, safe and economical transport of goods and materials. The modular design of the components and the energy-saving, frequency-controlled drive technology enable flexible, in-house transport of EURO pallets, half pallets and plastic pallets with a payload of up to 1,500 kg. The identification and testing of the pallets contributes to a high degree to the reliability of the systems. The pallets are checked for weight, foot clearance control, hanging down running boards, pallet deflection control, as well as displaced or oversized loads. Thus, disturbances in the automatic conveyor and storage facilities can be avoided. The robust and low-maintenance conveyor technology offers high delivery quality and reliability of the supply chain in the overall system and guarantees the gentle transport with high availability. With this system technology, high-performance shuttle cars are used with one or multiple-place conveyors. With conveying speeds up to 3 m/s and intelligent electronics, high capacity requirements are met in an optimal fashion. Two lift concepts are available for vertical transport of pallets over multiple floors: electromechanical or hydraulic.
CONVEYOR SYSTEMS FOR ROLL CONTAINERS
SIMPLE AND FLEXIBLE TRANSPORT FOR ROLL CONTAINERS & COMBINED SYSTEMS Roll containers are often used today when various items such as loose goods, packages, bags and containers are to be picked and delivered to respective branch locations. Intermediate storage for empty roll containers uses a lot of space, which can be better used for other purposes. Here we offer a specially developed technology with toothed belts. The roll containers are deposited onto the conveyor equipment either manually or by forklift and sent to an automatic interim storage unit. Such storage unit systems can also be installed on platforms. As a result, no valuable handling space is occupied.
