All weights move at the same speed
May 1st 2011 A new braking roller for carton live
storage lanes from BITO Storage
Systems ensures that both empty
and fully-loaded bins and containers
stocked in the same lane will move to
the picking face at the same speed. It
achieves this by adjusting the lane
incline according to the weight of the
empty containers to allow smooth
and undisrupted forward movement
of all containers irrespective of their
weight. No auxiliary aids, such as
hooks, are required. This is a
particularly important capability in
automatically serviced flow lanes.
The braking roller is based on a
mechanical braking system comprising
just four components, while the
roller's TPE (thermoplastic rubber)
surface increases the adhesion factor.
Compatible with BITO's modular
carton live system the new braking
roller can be retro-fitted. More articles from BITO Storage Systems Ltd: |
