New conveyor system horizons from EWAB UK

EWAB Engineering has numerous solutions and several types of conveyor systems to suit a vast range of industrial, automotive, aerospace, food cosmetic and pharmaceutical applications

EWAB are experts in automation and conveyor systems and can present a long history of reliable and successful applications.

* Pallet Systems.

EWAB launched their first pallet system onto the market in 1978.

Thanks to continuous development work, these pallet systems for industrial assembly and production lines are still more than ever "state-of-the-art" products.

The work piece carriers (pallets) are transported on the chain solely by friction.

This means that a continuous transport process can be provided.

Because the system is not bound by predetermined timing, the availability of an assembly or production line is considerably increased.

* Carrier Systems.

There is almost nothing the carrier systems developed by EWAB can't handle.

Whether used in industrial assembly or production lines, they safely convey even heavyweight work pieces with asymmetrical centres of gravity to their intended destination.

The weight of the goods to be transported is distributed on side rollers in the case of carrier systems.

This means that even heavy loads and asymmetrical centres of gravity do not pose a problem.

Transport is by means of friction in relation to the chain, where a spring-mounted attachment ensures continuity of flow.

Because the system is not bound by predetermined timing, the availability of an assembly or production line is greatly increased.

* Food, Cosmetic and Pharmaceutical Systems.

EWAB transport systems for the packaging and food industry are certainly not afraid of getting wet.

Thorough cleaning, both wet and dry, is made easier by special profiles.

Provisions are made for fast, optimum hygiene.

The non-rusting food systems are also available with an integrated cleaning system.

The products are transported directly on the plastic chain.

Depending on size and requirements, different chain widths and special coatings are used, enabling inclines of up to 45 degrees to be handled.

* Robot cells.

The closed loop of one or more robots is referred to as a robot cell.

These are used in order to automate repetitive work processes of the same type.

Handling tasks include the loading and unloading of machinery, stations and containers and also material flow systems.

These all-rounders in the machinery fleet can also handle whole process units, such as deburring, cleaning, assembly or packing products.

Six freely programmable axes permit movement in all degrees of freedom.

The grab systems are specifically designed and produced in line with the application.

When they are used to pack work pieces, containers or tools, every individual requirement is met to perfection.

Other systems, include roller conveyors, handling, stacking, testing and peripheral devices such as, cleaning, vacuum extracting, testing and component marking.
