Offline Operations

During production, testing, rework or packing, it may be required to take product offline to eliminate bottlenecks. This can be done on a Fleximate transport line with a turnstyle or shuttle.

Turnstyle #50002

Worksmart®'s turnstyle provides a means for changing the direction of a transport line or as a means of removing product off line. The turnstyle locks in 90-degree quadrants by means of a pneumatic actuated, spring-loaded pin. A friction brake prevents carts on the turnstyle from rolling off the station while being rotated.

Shuttle 50000 Series

This accessory can be used to move product off line or to change the direction of a transport cart. The shuttle is a cart which has track tubes mounted on it instead of a top. The product/cart which is moving through the cell rides on top of the track tubes of the shuttle cart. The shuttle cart then moves perpendicular to the main line and removes the product/cart from the main line. The track tubes of the main assembly cell are arranged at 90 degrees to the shuttle.
