Study - Rotation conveyor

The igus rotary conveyor is a material handling device designed to feed, position, and separate small components in automated manufacturing environments.

A rotating felt disc imparts motion to parts placed on the unit, causing them to shift position dynamically on the conveyor surface.

This spontaneous repositioning enables downstream processes such as robotic picking or direct feeding into production lines.

The system employs a modular limit design with screw connections that accept operator-selected attachments, including baffles and other fixtures.

These attachments are chosen and installed based on the specific parts being conveyed and the handling requirements of the application.

The operator determines which components will be processed and configures the necessary attachments to support conveying and further processing of those parts.
