Flat Motor Driven Roller Conveyor
An Energy Efficient Means of Conveying
Flat Motor Driven Roller Conveyor (FMDR) is an excellent choice when energy efficient, fast and easy installation, low maintenance and minimal spare parts are a primary consideration. The Flat Motor design offers the typical benefits of MDR with space savings and fewer mechanical components for reduced maintenance.
The advancements in 24 Volt Motor Driven technology and the high tech world of control cards make 24 Volt Flat MDR Conveyors extremely versatile. The 24 Volt Flat Motor Driven Roller Conveyors differ from traditional conveyors which utilize a continuous running AC Motor to drive the system. A larger system may utilize multiple motors that would be run continuously which adds noise, heat and expense. By utilizing the 24 Volt FMDR technology, these disadvantages are removed and other system advantages come into play.
FMDR- Flat Motor Driven Roller Conveyor
- No gear box allows for quiet, long lasting, low maintenance conveyor solution
- You only need to stock one motor for any between frame (BF)
- Speeds from 30 - 200 FPM
- Multiple controls options available
- Transportation and zero pressure systems
Saves Space
- Saves space by eliminating traditional power transmission components, multiple conveyor lines can be tiered taking up less vertical space
- Frames can mount directly to the floor also adding to available space
Quiet Operation
- Band driven ABEC rollers with no gear box noise
- No noisy reducers, high voltage motors or drive chains also assist in the quiet operation of FMDR conveyor
Reduced Maintenance and Spare Parts Inventories
- Long life brushless DC motor
- Fewer mechanical components required
Saves Energy
- If Conveyor is controlled so that rollers are off when no product is detected, the result is less power consumption ("Run on Demand" feature)
- Zero pressure requires no pneumatic components
Reduced Installation Costs
- High installation costs of making electric drops for connection to high voltage AC motors is greatly reduced
- Modular components are pre-wired. Simply bolt conveyor section together and plug together the power and control connectors
Modular Components
- Easily configured systems
- Simply unplug and unbolt the conveyor sections from each other and arrange them to meet your future needs
Reduced Down Time
