Zero Pressure Accumulation Conveyors

In zero-pressure accumulation, conveyed products don't touch each other and put no force on halted products

zero pressure accumulating conveyor


EZLogic Accumulation System

Combines a system of photo-eyes and discrete electronic logic control without the use of PLC's to provide "intelligent" zero-pressure control. This system works on a variety of conveyor models, and allows you to customize how the product is accumulated and released from the conveyor. EZLogic®, or Electronic Zero-pressure Logic, is a method of zero-pressure control that combines the sensing accuracy of photo-electrics with discrete electronic logic control without the use of a PLC or pneumatic logic components. This system provides all the "intelligence" needed to accurately control the various functions of zero-pressure accumulation on a variety of conveyor models. Reduced noise, higher reliability, higher throughputs, and ease of maintenance are just some of the advantages of the EZLogic® system.

CCAC: Case Conveyor Curve

The model CCAC is a horizontal plastic belt curve conveyor which is typically slave driven from the model CCEZ for accumulating 12 & 24 packs of canned beverages.

CCEZ Horizontal Plastic Belt Accumulation Conveyor

A horizontal plastic belt conveyor designed for accumulating 12 & 24 packs of canned beverages where high speeds and large through-puts are required. Conveyance and accumulation methods provide ability to move and control cases at higher speeds with no product marking. No rollers results in no lithographic buildup, and minimal components lend to quieter operation.

DCEZ 60: Drag Chain Pallet Handling Accumulation Conveyor

Model DCEZ is a drag chain conveyor designed to handle pallets. With the EZLogic accumulation module, pallets are accumulated with zero-back pressure reducing the possibility of collision that may result in product damage.

DCEZ-63: Horizontal Chain Accumulation Conveyor

The model DCEZ-63 is a 3-strand drag chain pallet-handling conveyor. With EZLogic accumulation module, pallets are accumulated with zero-back pressure reducing the possibility of collision that may result in product damage.

PLEZD: Heavy Duty Plastic Belt Accumulation Conveyor

This plastic belt conveyor handles footed pallets, slip sheets, unitized loads, etc.- items normally can't be conveyoed on rollers. The PLEZD provides Zero Back Pressure accumulation, reducing the possibility of product damage.

138/190-NSPEZ: Spool Accumulation Conveyor

Model 138/190-NSPEZ is a horizontal live roller conveyor designed for Zero-Pressure Accumulation of product. Positive braking in each zone reduces the possibility of damage to fragile items during accumulation

190-NSPEZC: Accumulating Spool Curve Conveyor

Model 190-NSPEZC is a horizontal live roller curve conveyor designed for Zero-Pressure Accumulation of product in conjunction with the straight 190-NSPEZ Conveyor. Positive braking in each zone reduces the possibility of damage to fragile items during accumulation. Singulation feature allows products to be removed from any location on the conveyor.

199-CREZD: Chain driven accumulation conveyor - cartons or pallets

A chain-driven, live-roller, zero-pressure accumulation conveyor that handles cartons or pallets in conditions not suitable for belt driven rollers. Items are accumulated with Zero Back Pressure reducing the possibility of collisions that may result in product damage.

25-CREZD: Heavy Duty Accumulating Zero Pressure Pallet & Drum Conveyor

A chain driven live (2.5") roller conveyor that handles loads such as pallets, drums, etc. Items are accumulated with zero back pressure.

36-CREZD Heavy Duty Accumulating Pallet & Drum Conveyor

A chain-driven live roller conveyor (3.5" diameter rollers) that handles large, heavy loads such as pallets and drums. Items are accumulated with zero back pressure, reducing the possibility of collisions that may result in product damage.

ABEZ - Medium Duty Flat Belt

Hytrol Model ABEZ is a horizontal live roller conveyor designed for applications that require accumulation of products without a build-up of line pressure. Singulation feature allows products to be easily removed from any location on conveyor.

25-LREZ Heavy Duty, Flat Back

The Model 25-LREZ is a belt driven live roller conveyor designed for use where zero-pressure accumulation, low elevation (12"), and close roller centers are required. It's a heavy duty accumulation conveyor for palletized loads.

 

How zero-pressure accumulation conveyor works...

zero pressure doesn't allow conveyed items to touch

  • With zero-pressure, conveyed products rarely or never touch each other, providing a level of finesse and protection that can reduce product damage and provide more precise control
  • Each zone extracts power from a flat drive belt that runs the entire length of the conveyor. When a product is stopped, a sensing eye is activated, sending a signal to the trailing zone.
  • When the next load moves into this zone, the drive belt is lowered away from the tread rollers causing the product to stop until the product is released.
  • When any product is removed, all others behind this zone will move forward in sequence.
