Heavy-Duty Conveyors Ideal for Rugged Environments - ATExpo '07


The TSplus Transfer System from Bosch Rexroth features reinforced conveyor profiles and stainless steel guides, making it ideal for harsh environments. New options such as traffic control, cushioned stop, anti-shock covers and RFID readers ensure long life and low wear.

(Buchanan, MI - www.boschrexroth-us.com) Rexroth's new heavy-duty TSplus conveyor components fill out an already robust TSplus product offering by making the system even more capable at the heavy end of its payload range. The systematic use of steel parts instead of plastic in critical areas now makes TSplus the ideal choice for harsh environments, such as metalworking, heavy appliance or automotive power train applications.

Reinforced conveyor profiles and stainless steel guides allow users to take advantage of the upper range of TSplus payload capabilities, and new options in traffic control, such as a high payload TSplus cushioned stop (up to 150 kg), die-cast aluminum proximity switch brackets and anti-shock covers for rocker stops and RFID readers minimize impact at process stations to ensure long life and low wear.
Stainless steel slide rails and lateral guide profiles offer additional support to enhance the low maintenance characteristics of TSplus, even in tough environments.

In addition, a new roller chain offers protection against falling small parts to eliminate unwanted downtime. And since all of these new heavy-duty components have been fully integrated into the modular TSplus transfer system from Rexroth, they are easy to retrofit or modify, so that the initial investment is never wasted.
