Chassis & Drive

The Basis


Depending on the transport task, various designs and drive types are available for the easylane... workpiece carrier system.

The basis of the system is the aluminum chassis used together with the extremely robust sliding chain and the matching workpiece carriers. Due to the chassis width of 265 mm, you can easily combine easylane... with existing systems of the same design. With product-specific mounts, the workpiece carriers of the easylane... ensure precise and gentle transport of your products.

Product examples

The modular construction kit of the workpiece carrier system easylane... has a wide range of practical components to optimize your production. Whether base frame, chassis and drive stations or stoppers and indexers - the possibilities are almost unlimited. We plan and design easylane... always suitable for the transport task at hand.

 
 

Positioning

Stop & Index


Stoppers
For stopping and separating the workpiece carriers, easylane... is equipped with pneumatic, electric or manual stoppers. If required, spring-loaded backstops can fix the workpiece carrier against the conveying direction. For integration into your control system, the stoppers are prepared for interrogation of the stopper position. This can be done either via cylinder switches or proximity switches.

Indexing Station & Lift Indexing Station
If a higher positioning accuracy of the workpiece carrier is required, this is increased to +/-0.15mm with the help of an indexing station. Here, the workpiece carrier is either positioned on the sliding chain or completely lifted out of the conveyor line. The lifting height of the lifting indexing station used is adapted exactly to your requirements.

Direction change

Curves & Switches


Complex routes can only be planned and realized through the use of curves and switches.

Curves
The easylane... curve modules offers a cost-effective and space-saving change of direction without a separate drive. In the curve area, the alignment of the workpiece carriers is not changed and an accumulation functionality is possible without any problems. The modular standard curve angles are 90° and 180°. Required special angles are individually designed and manufactured for your requirements. Due to the continuous profile groove, easylane... also offers versatile mounting options in the area of the curves.

Switch
With a switch, easylane... enables the infeed/outfeed of workpiece carriers in main and secondary lines. In this way, individual and complex line layouts can be realized. The switch can be set pneumatically, electrically or manually, whereby no additional drive is required. As with the curve modules, the standard curve angles of our switches are 90° and 180°.

Radius and angle
Our modular system also offers two different variants for the radius of our curve and switch modules with sizes of 150 mm and 225 mm. This allows us to make optimum use of the available installation space and to respond perfectly to your installation situation.

 

Workpiece carrier

High End


The direct connection between your product and the easylane... transport system is the workpiece carrier.

The workpiece carrier can be as individual and complex as the conveyor itself. The right workpiece carrier is always developed for each product. This ensures that your products pass through production precisely and safely.

The easylane... workpiece carrier enables precise and gentle transport of your products on the sliding chain. The product-specific holders are mounted on the top plate. This enables reproducible transport of "complicated" products or workpieces as well as exact positioning on robots, inspection stations or similar units. The workpiece carriers have wear-resistant chain supports.
