Sistemas de transporte monorraíl aéreo MCM Sidetrack

MCM Sidetrack es una gama de transportadores aéreos de cadena monorraíl diseñados para aplicaciones donde los productos deben protegerse de la contaminación proveniente de la cadena transportadora. El riel y la cadena giran 90°, lo que permite que los soportes colgantes en forma de C, unidos a la cadena, sobresalgan a través de la ranura lateral del riel. Esta configuración ayuda a evitar que contaminantes como gotas de aceite lubricante o partículas metálicas diminutas caigan sobre el producto transportado.

Al igual que la gama Powertrack, estas cintas transportadoras están diseñadas para operar a temperaturas de hasta 250 °C. Se encuentran disponibles diversos accesorios que se acoplan directamente a la cadena, como barras de guía continuas y unidades giratorias para la rotación del producto. Esto convierte a los sistemas de transporte MCM Sidetrack (ST30, ST60 y ST100) en la solución ideal para la manipulación de productos en entornos limpios, como en procesos de acabado de pintura o para el manejo de alimentos y prendas de vestir.

Los sistemas de transporte ST30, ST60 y ST100 tienen capacidades de carga suspendida de 30 kg, 60 kg y 75 kg respectivamente. El paso mínimo varía según el sistema de transporte de la gama.

Frequently Asked Questions About MCM Sidetrack

MCM Sidetrack is a range of monorail overhead chain conveyor systems designed with the track and chain rotated through 90 degrees. This arrangement allows the hanging pendants to project through a slot in the side of the track and helps protect conveyed products from contamination from the chain.

The Sidetrack design positions the chain and track to the side of the conveyed product rather than directly above it. The side-slot arrangement helps prevent contaminants from the chain, such as droplets of lubricating oil or minute metal particles, from falling onto the product below.

The MCM Sidetrack range includes the ST30, ST60 and ST100 conveyor systems. The different models provide a choice of pendant load capacities and pitches to suit different product handling and process requirements.

Published load capacities are 30 kg per pendant for the Sidetrack 30, 60 kg per pendant for the Sidetrack 60 and 75 kg per pendant for the Sidetrack 100. The appropriate conveyor model depends on the product load and the requirements of the application.

Yes. MCM Sidetrack conveyors are designed to operate through areas with temperatures up to 250°C. This makes the range suitable for manufacturing and processing applications where products pass through heated process areas.

Yes. MCM Sidetrack conveyors are particularly suited to clean handling applications such as paint finishing processes. The side-slot track arrangement helps protect the product from contamination from the conveying elements, while the conveyor can also operate through high-temperature process areas.

MCM Sidetrack conveyors are suitable for applications where clean product handling is important. Amber Industries identifies uses including paint finishing processes and the handling of food and garments, as well as general transportation and processing applications.

Yes. Spinner units for product rotation are available within the MCM Sidetrack range. Various attachments designed to fit directly onto the chain are also available, including pendants and continuous flight bars, allowing the conveyor to be configured for different product handling requirements.

Yes. MCM Sidetrack conveyor modules are designed for installation at high level. By conveying products overhead, the system can help keep valuable floor space available for other manufacturing and processing operations.

Yes. The modular construction of the MCM Sidetrack range uses common components and is designed to allow straightforward installation as well as future alterations and extensions, subject to the requirements of the existing conveyor system and the proposed changes.
