Industry: Email Alert RSS FeedNeed a Zoned Accumulation Conveyor? - TKF Inc - Brief Article
Automotive Manufacturing & Production, May, 2001
Who: TKF Inc. (Cincinnati, OH)
What: Compact zoned accumulation conveyors.
Why you should care: The compact configuration of these conveyors--as little as 6 in. from the floor to the top of the roller--offers more flexibility in conveyor placement. TKF achieves this compressed size by designing the clutch assembly to fit in the side frame rather than underneath.
Pertinent Data: Each assembly consists of a roll-to-roll chain driven live roller conveyor divided into individually powered zones. A single power unit drives the assembly and each zone is driven by an air-controlled clutch. Capacities for the conveyors range from 20 lbs. to 5,000 lbs..
