TYPE: Accumulation Conveyors

MODEL: Roach Model 796LSZ W/Sensor Rollers

The Model 796LSZ is a horizontal line shaft driven conveyor, designed for zero pressure accumulation of product on sensor rollers. Ideal for light to medium duty applications, it quietly accumulates a wide variety of product sizes and features no minimum weight limitations.

Features

  • Each zone features positive braking of each roller in the zone during accumulation
  • Product may be released in singulation or slug fashion
  • Speed: 60 FPM
  • A line shaft’s ability to run multiple components on a single drive provides a very efficient conveying system, with savings in both energy consumption and changeovers
  • Fully customizable
  • Zero pressure accumulation allows for no contact between products, using the same motor that powers curves and transfers

Applications

  • Excellent choice for every day, automated package handling systems
  • Clean, simple design is well suited for totes, cartons, and parcel package
