The Transporter
is a unique, pneumatically driven feeder that was designed to solve
scrap metal removal problems efficiently and inexpensively. This BELTLESS
CONVEYOR transports the pieces of scrap with a shaking tray motion.
A custom tray is fitted onto the body and the rhythmic linear motion
moves the tray slowly forward and then quickly backwards. The metal
shavings, scrap, or finished parts are gently shuffled along the tray
into a convenient container.
Although air operated, the air consumption is so low that it would
be considered insignificant in a press shop environment. The noise
level is well under acceptable standards for industrial uses.

Install the transporter
under any tool and problems with slugs, steel shavings and scrap disappear.
The Transporter costs a fraction of the price of motorized conveyors.
The replacement cost of belts and rollers alone justifies the change
from conventional conveyors.
Originally developed to remove scrap from presses, the Transporter
is now being used in assembly-type operations to move parts. |
