Interroll Corp. has introduced the Modular Pallet Conveyor Platform (MPP), a versatile pallet conveyor system featuring a highly flexible modular design. In conjunction with Interroll's Pallet & Carton Flow flow storage system, the pallet conveying platform is a foundation on which to build comprehensive pallet storage and conveying solutions of any type and for any application.
Unlike the flow storage system, in which pallets are buffered in intermediate storage areas on inclined belts due to the force of gravity, the MPP is a driven conveying system for pallets. Depending on the application scenario, the drive is powered by gear or drum motors, which enables the creation of zero-pressure-accumulation conveyors.
The fully modular system can be planned and arranged simply and conveniently using Interroll's Layouter tool. The MPP consists of a chain or roller conveyors, as well as additional modules such as transfers and turntables. Unique modules for special functions are also available on request.
Pallet inspection stations can be installed along the conveyor upon request. These enable the dimensions, weight, intactness or suitability of the pallets on the conveyor to be checked. Optionally, further inspections can be carried out: for example, in order to guarantee that only complete pallets with intact goods are transported on the conveyor.
