Applications Zip Chain Actuator - Lifting/hanging applications
Applications
Transfer trolley between conveyors (equipped with overhead traveling trolley)
Before improvement
・An overhead traveling trolley was equipped with a pneumatic cylinder from which panels that were to be mounted on the body were hung.
Problem
・Needed extra space as the outer cylinder of the pneumatic cylinder protruded.
・Panels were often scratched from swinging, and panel positioning was hard.
Solution
・Compact: Can be housed in a trolley. No extra ceiling space is needed because there is no protrusion. A lower center of gravity eliminated panel swinging.
