The overhead cable conveyor as featured on our website was on display at the recent PPMA Exhibition at NEC, Birmingham. The cable concept is relatively new in the U.K. but very well established in France and elsewhere. It is used particularly in the food industry – for moving pre-packed salads, vegetables etc. It is also used in the automotive industry for moving light weight car parts within assembly operations.

It is very flexible, virtually maintenance free, very quiet in operation and can be supported from above to release valuable floor space.

It is also generally cost effective vs. powered belt or powered roller conveyors.

With our wide experience of handling unit loads, we would always recommend the optimum solution, whether it’s an overhead, belt or roller conveyor- or even a combination.

The electric blanket project we mentioned in our previous RCS News has now been delivered to the controls/testing company before being installed at the end-user’s Birmingham factory. We call it a conveyor, but is it! You will see from the picture that beneath the top cover there is a shaft fitted with several pulleys, each fitted with 20 mm diameter polyurethane belts. The belts help pull the blankets through the machine where they are electrically tested as part of QA procedures. Perhaps it is simply a handling device? The shaft is driven by a direct connected right angle geared motor to drive the pulley belts at the 15m/minute in a forward or reverse direction.

The QD Conveyor range is now available in aluminium construction giving three options - painted mild steel (standard), plus stainless steel and now aluminium as special options.

The new option will not be using pre-engineered aluminium sections, but aluminium sheet - so it's appearance will be very similar to the clean, streamline appearance of the other options. It's main attraction is the lightweight construction and the ability to easily relocate the conveyor to suit changing layout requirements.

Have you experienced the situation where products normally carried up an incline belt conveyor satisfactorily, for no obvious reason, start to slip down the belt?

We shall discuss this problem in our next News Update and suggest some solutions.
