Bunting Magnetic Conveyor Components Solve Common Conveying and Handling Problems. Our standard components can be configured to handle a variety of conveying needs.
Capture and Move Parts Magnetic incline conveyors can be constructed using Magnetic T-Rails or Plate Rails, a Magnetic Pulley, a Magnetic Take-Off Rail and Belt. This configuration takes parts from one work station to another or from a machining operation to inspection, storage, or packaging. The design can also be used to remove scrap automatically.
Sequence Parts Horizontal and incline magnetic conveyor configurations can be used to maintain part spacing during transport and production operations.
Stabilize Parts During Automation - Robotic Pick and Place Magnetic T-Rails and Pulleys stabilize parts, maintain spacing, and convey at controlled rates that allow synchronization with robotic devices.
Save Floor Space with Overhead Conveying This configuration saves valuable floor space by elevating conveyed parts up and over aisles and/or above the work areas in your plant. Even at 90 degree angles, ferrous parts are held securely. They can be conveyed to operations at different floor levels - free from marring or distortions caused by other handling methods.
Lift Parts Between Levels Magnetic T-Rails and Pulleys can be arranged to maintain part orientation while transporting parts from one conveyor and level to another. Configurations like this are ideal for automated lines where space is limited.
Build Aerosol Test Baths Stainless Steel Bunting Components and Special Aerosol Test Bath Rails can easily be configured to carry pressurized aerosol cans through liquid test bath to check for leaks.
Turn Parts Over and Change Directions Parts can be turned over for visual inspection and deburring. Their direction of travel is changed in this configuration. The illustration shows a typical setup that includes a Magnetic Pulley, Magnetic Take-Off Rail Assembly, and Magnetic Snap-Down Rail. At the junction of the two belts, the Take-Off Rail Assembly decreases the magnetic force acting on the parts to near zero and the parts are released onto the lower belt, or snapped down to the lower conveyor without damage.
Feed Sheet Stock Magnetic Drive Rollers are used to feed and control sheet stock. They can be positioned either over or under sheets to drive them horizontally or up inclines. These rollers help eliminate slippage caused by oily sheets and assure position of sheets in automated punching and notching lines.
Transfer Parts Between Conveyors Mounting decreasing-force Magnetic Take-Off Rail and Pulley assemblies directly above adjacent conveyors allow ferrous parts to be picked up and transferred from one to the other.
Separate Ferrous Materials In this typical belt-conveyor setup, contaminated material is conveyed to the Magnetic Pulley. Cleaned material passes over the pulley in a normal trajectory. Tramp metal travels around the pulley to the decreasing-force Magnetic Take-Off Rail where it is discharged away from the cleaned material.
Simplify Quality Control A basic Conveyor design with a calibrated Take-Off Rail Assembly permits visual inspection and/or automatic segregation of selected parts.
