XLR Conveyor From Magstar(TM) Enables Multi-Lane Accumulation for Products of Varying Sizes and Random Orientation
Minneapolis, MN - September 23, 2008 - MagStar(TM) Technologies, Inc. introduces the XLR, the newest addition to MagStar's Quickdraw(R) slip roller accumulation conveyor line. The XLR features multiple adjacent rollers across the full conveyor bed, making it an ideal material handling solution for multi-lane accumulation. The XLR conveyor handles products of various sizes and random orientation efficiently and effectively, while offering the 24 VDC brushless motor standard on all Quickdraw conveyors to provide speed control - variable up to 90 feet per minute.
The XLR conveyor handles dynamic loads up to 120 lbs. (60 lbs. static) and is ideal for accumulating irregular-shaped products of assorted sizes - without shingling or damage to packaging.
