Jinan Hiwell Machinery Co. Ltd. - Ethercat Servo-Driven Conveyor 3900mm L x 600mm W

• Precision indexing and positioning in assembly lines.
• Controlled feeding of products to packaging machinery.
• Integration into automated sorting and rejection systems.
• Accurate transfer of delicate or irregularly shaped items.
• Synchronised movement within complex robotic work cells.

Typical throughput

Highly variable, dependent on servo programming and product characteristics, but capable of precise start/stop cycles for high-accuracy applications.

Belt width

For this class of equipment, commonly found in widths from 300mm to 1000mm.

Belt material

Typically food-grade PU or PVC, often with flights for product separation and incline capability.

Power supply

Commonly 220-240V, single or three-phase, 50Hz for UK operation, with specific requirements for the servo drive system.

Control system compatibility

Units of this type are designed for integration with advanced PLC systems, specifically EtherCAT in this instance, for real-time control.

Footprint

Length is application-specific; width is determined by the belt and frame, typically 100-200mm wider than the belt itself.

• What are the primary advantages of an EtherCAT servo-driven conveyor?

  EtherCAT provides high-speed, real-time communication, enabling precise synchronisation and control of the servo motor. This results in highly accurate start/stop operations and repeatable positioning, crucial for automation.

• Can this type of conveyor be integrated into an existing production line?

• What kind of maintenance does a servo-driven conveyor require?

• Is this conveyor suitable for washdown environments?

• What is meant by 'flighted conveyor'?

Buyers typically value conveyor systems for their reliability and longevity when well-maintained. Key considerations when purchasing used units include belt condition, motor functionality, frame integrity, and available spare parts. Industry sentiment emphasises the importance of verifying operational history and cleanliness standards, particularly for food handling applications. Common strengths include robust construction, relatively straightforward maintenance requirements, and cost savings versus new equipment. Reputable manufacturers' models tend to hold their value well and integrate readily into existing production lines.
