Challenges Facing the IndustryLong Lead Times and High Prices for Foreign Brands: Traditionally, bin conveyor lines use foreign electric roller conveyors, and pallet conveyor lines use foreign three-phase asynchronous motors. These offer a wide variety of models, long lead times, and generally high prices, and equipment manufacturers face the risk of stockouts.
High Noise, High Energy Consumption, and Significant Safety Hazards: Traditional pallet conveyor lines use three-phase asynchronous motors, which are not only noisy and energy-intensive but also operate on 220V/380V power, posing significant safety risks.
Time-Consuming and Labor-Induced Installation and After-Sales Service: When the conveyor line is long, photoelectric sensors require a separate switching power supply, and frequency converters require a separate electrical box, making wiring, installation, and after-sales service inconvenient.
Slow and uneven start/stop response: Traditional solutions using electric rollers for hoppers and three-phase asynchronous motors for pallets suffer from slow start/stop response, low positioning accuracy, uneven start/stop, and low conveying efficiency.
Solution FeaturesUnified Specifications: The conveyor line uses an integrated low-voltage servo solution, replacing multiple specifications of electric rollers and three-phase asynchronous motors, reducing after-sales service and inventory management hassles.
Bus-based Design: The low-voltage servo can power photoelectric sensors, which are connected to the servo and their status is read via the CANopen bus.
High Axis Capacity: Utilizing the CANopen free protocol, energy-saving bus resources are saved, allowing for a greater number of axes to be supported.
Value BoostCost Reduction: Reduced number of switching power supplies, electrical boxes, remote I/O modules, etc., resulting in a 40% cost reduction.
Efficiency Improvement: Faster servo start/stop response, increasing conveying efficiency by over 30%.
Energy Saving: Automatic power-off during non-motion states, saving over 30% in energy.
High Precision: Smooth start/stop, improving positioning accuracy by 50% (±2mm).
