Aviation: Overhead- and floor conveyors

Conveyors for a highly technological and innovative industry

The aviation industry is highly technological and innovative with extremely detailed specified requirements in the manufacture of the aircraft and its components.

At OCS, we specialize in delivering cutting-edge overhead conveyor solutions designed to meet the rigorous demands of the aerospace industry. Our modular and highly flexible systems provide unmatched efficiency and precision for aeroplane assembly lines.

Key features:

  • Enhanced Flexibility: Our modular design allows for seamless customization and scalability, adapting to the specific needs of each assembly process. The friction drive system, free of chains, and its bolted (not welded) support structure make it easy to integrate lifts and shuttles, offering the definitive solution for moving large aerospace parts efficiently within minimal floor space.

 

  • Increased Efficiency: Streamline operations with our overhead conveyors, reducing downtime and optimizing workflow for faster assembly times. Our systems are designed to handle larger profiles and lighter weight parts, addressing the aerospace industry’s unique challenge of moving large components in confined spaces without requiring large turns.

 

  • Precision Handling and Ergonomics: Ensure the safe and accurate transport of delicate aircraft components, minimizing the risk of damage and ensuring high-quality outputs. Our custom-designed overhead conveyors and product carriers enable operators to lift, lower, and rotate large parts ergonomically, enhancing worker safety and comfort on the assembly line.

 

  • Space Optimization: Maximize your production floor space with our overhead systems, providing a clutter-free and organized assembly environment. The modularity of our systems ensures that even large aerospace parts are moved efficiently within the smallest possible space.

With extensive experience in the aerospace sector, our team understands the unique challenges of aeroplane assembly and delivers solutions that meet the highest standards of safety and performance. OCS develops the best assembly solutions to meet the stringent requirements of aerospace customers.

Assembly line for aircraft pylon

The conveyor system transports the pylons weighing up to 1200 kg and between 4 and 6 meters long, automatically at a height of 5.5 meters. The pylons are lowered and discharged onto the respective assembly station, after which the product carrier rises to retrieve a new pylon. The four assembly lines together have a total of 42 product fixtures. OCS has been responsible from design and manufacturing to the implementation of ready-made assembly lines.
