Timing Belt Conveyors from Robotunits

Robotunits Timing Conveyor BeltThe timing belt conveyor from the Robotunits Modular Automation System transports bulky or heavy parts precisely. The V-guided belt ensures perfectly straight tracking. The belt surface can be selected individually. With the use of connection shafts, multi-lane designs can be achieved.

Precise and durable in every situation.

Timing Belt Conveyor Q & A

+ What is special about the timing belt conveyor versus a standard belt conveyor?
The timing belt conveyor uses a V-guided timing belt to ensure very precise belt tracking and to handle lateral forces. In other words, it’s optimized for positioning, indexing and transporting bulky or heavy parts with accuracy.
 
+ What sizes and load-capacities can the timing belt conveyor handle?
The system is available in single lane and multi-lane configurations, frame widths starting from around 40 mm and up, with standard lengths up to 12,000 mm or more on request. It can handle varying sizes of conveyed goods and heavier loads (one source cites up to ~400 kg) thanks to its design.
+ What drive, speed and belt options are available for customization?
The timing belt conveyor supports multiple drive and motor positions (for example direct drive or timing-belt drive) and comes with a wide variety of belt surfaces, covers and attachments. In typical systems speeds range (for this series) from a few m/min up to ~50-60 m/min depending on configuration.
 
+ How well does it integrate with other automation or modular systems?
Because it is part of the Robotunits Modular Automation System, the timing belt conveyor uses the same extrusion-based framing with T-slots and is compatible with accessories, side-guides, etc. This makes it easier to design or expand for machine construction and automation layouts. 
 
 
+ What maintenance or long-term reliability features should I know about?
The timing belt conveyor’s design emphasizes process reliability and simple cost-effective maintenance: for example it includes a patented belt tensioner for consistent belt tension. Because of the V-guide and robust design it tends to require fewer adjustments for mis-tracking. Additionally, since it’s configurable and modular, replacement of belts or lanes is simpler.
