Benefits & Advantages of Monorail Overhead Conveyor System

Simplifies Installation and Maintenance

Overhead monorail chain conveyor is constructed of standard, modular components that guarantee easy installation, modification and maintenance. Standard components also guarantee quick accessibility through local stocking distributors.

Increases Throughput

With its 6" pitch, the monorail overhead chain conveyor provides 33% more hanging points than competitive products. The result is a reduction in the size of corresponding process equipment.

Maximizes Floor Space

The monorail overhead conveyor's standard 1'-6"R horizontal and 2'-0"R vertical curves can make tight changes in direction and elevation, freeing up valuable floor space for other assembly and storage operations.

Reduces Product Damage

The monorail conveyor system can transport product anywhere, in return, product handling and damage are kept to a minimum.

Different Types of Monorail Overhead Conveyor System

When considering different types of monorail overhead conveyor systems, the space above the floor can easily be utilized. Most powder coating plants have similar requests to maximize space, speed up efficiency and automate the process. And glad to say an overhead monorail transfer system may be the answer.

An overhead chain monorail system is the most common type hanging conveyor generally used in a production facility to move parts from one location to another. They take advantage of the generally unused vertical space above the working area. Using curved sections or even with elevators, they bring parts down to the level of operators and back up to higher elevations. Overhead monorail conveyors can pass through production areas that humans can’t like through ovens and robot work cells.

Running on different tracks, the monorail conveyor system can be divided as aluminum tube monorail overhead conveyor, I beam trolley monorail overhead conveyor, enclosed track monorail overhead conveyor and power and free monorail overhead conveyor. With different driving mechanism, there are manual monorail overhead conveyor, motor driven monorail overhead conveyor and friction driven monorail overhead conveyor. Sorted by installation methods, it can be designed as enclosed track overhead monorail conveyor, which is installed on support steel structure or roof ceiling mounted, and inverted floor mounted monorail conveyor, or called inverted monorail system, installed on ground level. Made by different raw material, there can be aluminum alloy monorail overhead conveyor and stainless steel overhead monorail conveyor. With chain or not, it can be made as monorail overhead chain conveyor and chainless monorail overhead conveyor system.

These different types of monorail overhead conveyors are used for finishing system, automotive assembly line, powder coating industry, textile processing and spinning, product transport, process automation, vehicle body shop, manufacture plant, slaughterhouse, workshops, automobile production line and more industries.

Monorail Overhead Conveyor System Components, Accessories and Monorail Overhead Conveyor System Spare Parts

The Overhead Monorail Enclosed Track is a versatile overhead designed to satisfy the requirements of manufacturing and finishing operations where light loads are handled. There are no exposed moving parts, making this overhead conveyor system, exceptional for product finishing and powder coating applications. This configuration avoids corrosion, damage and wear found in traditional systems. The aluminum enclosed track protects product from contamination that typically falls from open chain conveyors. And this monorail enclosed track conveyor also protects the chain from airborne dirt, abrasives and solvents, prolonging chain life. The standard horizontal and vertical curves can make tight changes in direction and elevation, freeing up valuable floor space for other assembly and storage operations. The overhead monorail system also can be upgraded to a power and free system utilizing all existing components.

Other available components and spare parts are: heavy duty universal link conveyor chain, monorail track, spinner, swivel hook, oven expansion joints, automatic chain lubricator, suspension fittings, worm drive unit, tension unit, expansion unit, inspection unit, lubrication unit, Take-up assembly, chain sprocket, pendants, welding jig, etc.
