Our application solution for corner transfer units and rotary tables provides you with innovative drive components with decentralized or sequential drive control. Its unique technical characteristics allow you to implement more cost-efficient planning for your systems.
Distinguishing features of the corner transfer unit/rotary table
Corner transfer units and rotary tables are used for routing the flow of materials on conveyor lines. They ensure the smooth sorting and discharging of the material to be conveyed. To create the optimal flow of materials, corner transfer units and rotary tables synchronize with the conveyor processes, This in turn requires corresponding interfaces to the higher-level system control. With our application solution for corner transfer units/rotary tables, you can adjust the standard to fit your system, and increase efficiency without any difficulty.
Our solution provides you with concepts that include modern drive components. Optimized processes and the simple assignment of components during installation provide you with project management support. Predefined application modules make startup quick and easy, allowing you to profit from high system and drive component availability. Even more: the decentralized drive concepts greatly simplify installation and maintenance.
