Other Industries
Modern industries have similar requirements – systems must be flexible, clean, and quiet, while adapting to specific needs. With OCS friction-based systems for overhead conveyors, these requirements are met regardless of industry.
Vertical Farming
Vertical farming is growing rapidly with a focus on sustainable food production. Cultivation requires automated, clean, and flexible solutions. With OCS friction-based systems for overhead conveyors, efficient production with high capacity and low environmental impact is made possible.
Technology that powers the production of the future
Friction Drive
Our patented systems are friction-driven. This creates quiet and clean systems. The drive mechanism consists of either a friction belt or a rotating aluminium tube.
The Trolley
With the friction belt, each drive trolley is equipped with a friction carrier and four load-bearing wheels. The friction carrier is pressed against the drive belt and transfers power to the drive trolley. With the rotating aluminium tube, each trolley has four angled wheels and four load-bearing wheels. Through the wheels, the rotation is transferred and converted into friction drive.
Motors
The drive mechanism is powered by an electric motor. One motor can drive up to 30 meters. If necessary, an extension can be connected. The drive technology is quiet and requires no lubrication. The motor can be adjusted for different drive speeds. The drive units can have soft start and stop movements, and we always use energy-efficient motors.
RFID
Each trolley has RFID chips or barcodes for identification and traceability. Built-in sensors register data and create control over production flows.
Curves and Switches
The modular system can be built with driven curves from 5° – 90°. Switches are built into the system to allow trolleys to switch on and off the track. Switches are available in both 45° and 90°, to both the right and left.
Incline
The system can handle inclines of up to 25°, depending on load weight. For vertical movement, we use vertical conveyors that can load on multiple levels.
Power & Free
With the Power & Free buffering technology, an even balance is created in large production flows. Power & Free buffers both on the driven track and in special buffer areas. For example, before a robot station and during loading and unloading.
