Precision Link Conveyors

Precision Link Conveyors

Motion Index Drives’ Precision Link Conveyors combine excellent accuracy, high index speed capability and versatility to meet any automation challenge. Our Precision link conveyors rely on an index drive and gear reducer. We can manufacture yours with a brake motor or make it compatible with a servo motor.

Our Precision Index Conveyor Capabilities

The design of our Precision indexing conveyor is based on a modular assembly chassis concept. You can customize the conveyor length between the dual drive sprockets and the fixed chordal compensation cams according to the required number of workstations. We at Motion Index Drives offer our LFA Precision Link Conveyors with various fixed strokes and servo-driven configurations that are entirely programmable. We also specialize in complex and intricate configuration precision link indexing applications, making us the top precision link conveyor manufacturing company catering to your needs.

Key Benefits of Precision Link Conveyors

We at Motion Index Drives pride ourselves on the highest quality to ensure you get accuracy and longevity from your investments. Work with peace of mind, knowing you have a reliable system tailored to your specific requirements. Key benefits include:

• Precision Indexing Conveyors utilize very high-quality machined aluminum links for the chain, which allows for less internal inertia and results in higher loading capabilities, high-speed index times and smaller indexer required to move the conveyor
• Hardened and ground steel track for higher rigidity
• Four cam followers engaged on each and every link to the steel track, which is sealed, requiring no maintenance
• The aluminum structure allows you to manufacture long and straight items with the flexibility to mount stationary items and the conveyor easily, without tapping and drilling
• The center structure can be manufactured to allow for holes, cutouts or pass-throughs
• Extremely high precision through the use of an accuracy-fixed rotary index drive or with the use of a very low backlash gear reducer
• We can manufacture Precision Link Conveyors to virtually any length

Advantages for Design Engineers and Special Machine Builders

Design is made easy with our Precision Link Conveyors. Our flexible link sizes, along with a carousel and over-under work position, allow design engineers and machine builders to configure our systems according to their needs. Take a look at some of the advantages:

• Oscillating index operation capabilities
• Easy synchronization of other mechanical devices
• Can be mounted in a vertical or horizontal configuration
• Length can be changed easily for design or project change

Technical Benefits for Users
