Whether
you are handling cases, totes, trays, poly bags, or parcel
envelopes, a wide variety of load sizes and weights are
accommodated. Please reference Dematic specification
sheets by model number for technical attributes and
capacity ratings. MCS offers a complete range of modules
to create a highly efficient material flow configuration. MCS
is often integrated with other devices such as scanners,
sorters, label print and apply devices, case sealers, in-line
weigh scales, palletizers, and robotics.
A Complete Family of Modules
Dematic MCS uses a universal side frame for all modules.
This design feature allows for easier reconfiguration
as your operation changes. MCS is made up of over 40
standard conveyor models that allow you to configure the
most optimized conveyor network for your application.
The conveyor types available to build your system include
transportation, accumulation, curves, inclines/declines,
right angle transfers, steerable wheel sorters, and sorter
induction.
More Drive Options
Dematic MCS is configured using AC drive motors, DC
low voltage motor driven rollers, or a combination of both.
With this dual offering, the most appropriate drive system
can be applied to your conveyor system layout. For example,
with long runs of conveyor, it is most cost effective to
use one AC motor instead of multiple motor driven rollers.
Or, a right angle transfer module can be inserted into a single
length of AC driven accumulation conveyor by “snubbing
down” the narrow Kevlar® drive belt, omitting the
need for an AC drive motor on either side of the transfer.
Quiet Rollers & Belted Sections
Dematic MCS is offered with quiet operating rollers and
belted conveying surfaces. Rollers feature double spring
action, plastic coated axles, and precision, “sealed for
life” bearings. High strength, one piece vulcanized belting
is used in zone segments to allow precise carton control
or for applications that accommodate light weight or
poly bagged items. The segmented belt conveyor, driven
by motor driven rollers, features automatic tracking and
tensioning.
Electronic Sensing
Dematic MCS uses electronic sensing devices for load
detection. Zone boundaries are determined with electronic
sensors and reflectors. A standardized set of parts make
up the assembly: sensor, reflector, protective housing, cabling
and mounting components. The sensor and reflector
housings offer multiple mounting angles.
