Edge Roller Technology – The Ideal Solution for Cleanroom Applications
Cleanroom manufacturing environments present a unique set of challenges and requirements for any equipment involved, but particularly for the conveyor system. The conveyor in a cleanroom is the machine moving most often throughout the production process, which means it is the most likely to create friction, dust, and carry potential contaminants.
So, what makes the ERT conveyor ideal for cleanrooms?
No Friction Rollers
Rather than a belt, the ERT uses a series of rollers along both edges of the system to move pallets along. The no friction roller system eliminates the debris added to a cleanroom environment by the conveyor and reduces the chance of contaminated product.
Open Frame Design
The open frame design eliminates the chance of small parts falling into the system and getting stuck causing jams. This has a number of benefits including ease of maintenance, reduction in unplanned downtime, and a reduction of areas where debris can build up in the system.
Customizable Zoning
Customizable zoning allows operators to create no contact accumulation zones making it easier to control product flow during the production process. The zoning capabilities also remove the need for pneumatics which release unwanted air in cleanroom environments.
Static Conductive Pallet Skirt
In some manufacturing applications, the dispersion and elimination of static is vital to ensuring delicate electrical components remain properly functional and healthy throughout production. Our ERT pallets are built with static conductive skirts to reduce the risk of static charges affecting the product during assembly.
Choosing a Pallet System eBook
What’s in the eBook?
Pallet system conveyors typically come on different platforms to convey the pallet: a dual belt configuration powered by a common drive, a flexible plastic chain belt design, or a roller edge conveyor.
The right type of pallet system will depend on the needs of the application and product.
This eBook:
- Explores the different types of pallet systems
- Discusses practical applications
- Highlights features of each type
- Allows you to quickly compare and make an informed decision
