Monorail Conveyor Type

These are tailor-made or custom built machines designed for specific purposes wherein the work pieces may be tumbled, rotated, rolled, carried, even pushed, all according to necessity, convenience and economy. In these machines the work is carried upon hangers suspended from an overhead monorail.

This type of machine may be classed as a single or multiple pass, indexing, spinner hanger or straight through type. Again the machine may be single or multi wheel type depending on the product size and the required output. The overhead conveyor type machine can be designed to carry weights up to 4 tons per hanger.

The layout of monorails circuits may be unlimited in variety. Overhead plants have two outstanding features; continuity of production and flexibility. There are very few workpieces that are not capable of being suspended by some type of suitable hanger.
