New Edge Roller Technology (ERT™ 250) Conveyor

Beltless zone control for

pallet and tray handling

Dorner's new precision edge roller conveyors provide efficient, non-contact zoning for medium & heavy load assembly automation applications. They feature a clean, open roller design and are ISO Class 4 approved for cleanrooms.

The ERT 250 is built for applications such as medical product and device manufacturing, assembly and packaging, as well as medium-large heavy load assembly automation applications. Slip roller technology reduces the force by almost 75%, and the force to accumulate product with driven roller is less than that of belted conveyors.

Widths 120 mm to 960 mm wide
38 mm diameter rollers on 50 mm centers
Loads up to 250 pounds per pallet or tray
Loads up to 15 pounds per roller
150 mm minimum long tray
Speeds up to 30 m (100 feet) per minute

ELECYLINDER Electric Grippers

2-Point positioning with built-in controller

IAI’s new ELECYLINDER Electric grippers are 2 position actuators with built-in controllers to replace air actuated cylinders and are set up with just 4 easy steps. They can be configured with the TB-03 teach pendant or IAI's new IA-OS software. They can even be configured wirelessly.

These cost effective grippers come in 4 variations from 10mm and 28N of force up to 20mm and 360N of force. Best of all, they act just like a 5/2 valve with built-in sensors, with a simple Backward or Forward output and returning Backward and Forward signals, two digital inputs and two digital outputs control and monitor the gripper with ease.

Micro/Mini Vacuum Ejectors

Ideal for robotics and multiple gripping applications

Coval Micro/Mini ejectors are particularly suitable for robotics and multiple gripping applications with innovative functions like vacuum connection, blow-off and manifold mounting.

CIL in-line ejectors for handling electronic components and lightweight objects, feed systems.

VR series in-line ejectors can be mounted directly on the suction cup, which simplifies installation.

GVR and GVRL ranges are designed for an industrial environments with its pollution resistant through-type silencer.
