Zip Chain Actuator®

• Pallet Transfer Device
  
  

  
  

  Pallet Transfer Device

  HSHFC

  Workpieces are raised and lowered for transferring, using an arm powered by the Zip Chain Actuator.

  
  BENEFIT:
  

  
  

  • Can be installed in the small space on the ceiling side
  • Reduces the cycle time for conveyance by allowing for lifting at high speed
• Container Sorting Equipment
  
  

  
  

  Container Sorting Equipment

  HSC
  

  Zip Chain Actuators can be used to move traversers horizontally and to raise or lower chucking units vertically.

  
  BENEFIT:
  

  
  

  • Horizontal and suspending installation are possible without protruding parts, enabling a lower height layout
  • Accurate multi-point stopping even with horizontal transfers
• AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle)
  
  

  
  

  AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle)

  HPC
  

  Workpieces are transferred between conveyors at different heights using the Zip Chain Actuator mounted on AGV.

  
  BENEFIT:
  

  
  

  • Lift unit can be accommodated compactly in the AGV
  • Height can be adjusted according to the conveyor height of the next process
• Furnace Door
  
  

  
  

  Furnace Door

  HSCE
  

  Zip Chain Actuators can be used to push up and close furnace doors.

  
  BENEFIT:
  

  
  

  • Can be installed without protruding from equipment
  • Higher speed operation prevents temperatures inside the furnace from changing
