Motorised Roller Conveyors

Motorised Roller Conveyors:-

Motorized roller conveyors are an excellent choice when energy efficiency, quiet operation and ease of maintenance are primary considerations. Sometimes they are known as MDR (motorized driven roller conveyors or “motor driven roller conveyors”). MDR conveyors will be found handling a multitude of products such as bags, batteries, glass, tires and consumable goods and parcels.

Features:-

Non-contact, zero pressure accumulation conveyors can be used when handling delicate or varying shapes and sizes of product which need to queued without contact, this will avoid damage or jamming of products on the conveyor.

The system works by using small roller zones powered by a single motorised roller connnected to multiple slave rollers with bands, the zone is controlled by a single PEC sensor.

By using one or more motorized rollers per zone, a motorized roller conveyor enables “zero pressure accumulation” (ZPA) movement of parts on the conveyor. In a zero pressure accumulation situation, parts continue moving along the MDR conveyor until they get close to (but do not touch) the product unit in front. Therefore there are no gaps in the assembly line. The MDR conveyor system has its own built in logic cards which automatically manage turning each zone on and off. This reduces programming and commissioning time.
