Basic Principles of Operation
TS Conveyors use the "power & free" principle to carry work-piece pallets that ride on twin strands of transport media, either belt, flat top chain or roller chain which are contained in two t-slotted edge rails. This arrangement leaves an open center for transfer, positioning, orientation, and work processing modules.

Controlled sliding friction propels the pallets along until encountering a stop gate or another pallet. Pallet(s) can slide on the low back pressure transport media and accumulate to provide non-synchronous cycle operation.

The TS Conveyor Family
TS Conveyors can be configured into cycle independent spur lines or work loops to balance line flow and ensure even throughput. Pallets are sized optimally for the work and its weight. Pallet size determines the rail spacing. Typically, pallets are precision machined with accurate locator bushings which allow Bosch positioners to hold pallets within +/-0.02mm for automated processes.

Select a system best suited to your application from several basic configurations that will accommodate your space constraints or process complexity: rectangular, over-under, inline, carousel, serpentine, parallel, and cycle-independent workstation.

There are three conveyor models to handle a broad range of size and payload requirements:

Built for a Lifetime
Long after the initial payback, TS Conveyors save you money and keep adding to your bottom line. The proven design reduces total lifetime ownership cost because our conveyors are:

  Designed to a worldwide standard of excellence.
  Built with standardized modular components and Structural Aluminum Framing.
  Constructed in an ISO9001 certified environment.
  Production tested and refined for over 30 years.
  Subjected to on-going life-cycle testing.
  FMSsoft AutoCAD®-based software reduces engineering and design time, provides better project
  visualization, and automatically generates a bill of material.

Most importantly, the standardized modular design of TS conveyor systems enables you to expand them as your requirements increase or to completely reconfigure them for new applications.
