Pallet system X85

Product catalog summary
Pallet System Overview
The X85 pallet system is designed for handling individual products on pallets using configurable standard modules. It supports both simple and advanced layouts for routing, balancing, buffering, and positioning. RFID technology in the pallets allows for precise tracking and logistic control. The system includes a standard line cabinet with power and communication bus systems for easy installation and flexibility.
Divert/Merge Devices
These devices manage product flow by dividing or combining product streams. The system typically includes a main conveyor ('highway') and subordinate conveyors ('satellites') for operations like turning, grinding, assembly, or testing. Divert/merge modules facilitate the transfer of pallets between cells, with configurations available in 45° and 90° left/right versions.
Configurator Tool
This tool allows for the customization of divert/merge modules to fit specific pallet sizes, creating accurate 3D CAD models for layout integration. Options include sensor types, RFID readers, and brackets.
Pallet Positioning Functions
The X85 system includes locating stations for precise pallet positioning, using pneumatically controlled stops and proximity switches. The system ensures high locating accuracy (±0.1 mm) and can be configured for specific pallet sizes.
Pallets with RFID
The X85 system offers pallets in four sizes, featuring a cast aluminum base and plastic guide discs. They include RFID tag holders and are designed for high locating accuracy. Pallets can accumulate in conveyor bends and are suitable for inclines up to 5°.
Pallet Introduction
The X85 pallet system offers various pallet types for different environments, including tough conditions, low friction, and high precision. Pallets consist of a cast aluminum plate and guide discs, with options for steel or plastic slide plates.
Chain-Pallet Compatibility
Pallets are categorized for clean or tough environments, with corresponding chain types. The system allows for easy switching between versions by changing chains and slide plates.
Pallet Specifications
Pallets offer locating accuracy of ±1 mm or ±0.1 mm with bushings. They support RFID tags and have a maximum load capacity of 10 kg. Various indexing options are available depending on pallet size.
Pallet Configurations
Pallets are available in basic, standard, low friction, and conductive versions, with specific configurations for clean and tough environments. Each type has specific compatibility with chain types and locating stations.
Pallet Parts for Replacement or Upgrading
Components such as guide discs, slide plates, and roller plates are available for replacement or upgrading, ensuring the system's adaptability and longevity.
Specifications and Components
  • Slide Plate Kits: Available in steel and plastic, each kit contains 10 pieces. Specific models include steel (5110873), polyamide (5110874), and conductive polyamide (5110875).
  • Roller Slide Kits: Made of polyamide, available in standard (5110876) and conductive (5110877) versions, each kit contains 10 pieces.
  • Shock Absorber Kits: Each pallet comes with one shock absorber (5110903), and kits contain 10 pieces.
  • Initiator Plate Kits: Each pallet includes two initiator plates (5110904), with kits containing 10 pieces.
  • RFID Components: RFID tags (5058153) and read/write heads (5058152) are used for data exchange, with a maximum read speed of 30 m/min and an operating frequency of 125 kHz.
Guide Rails and Locating Units
  • Guide Rails: Aluminium guide rails for X85 pallets are available in straight and curved sections, with end guides in standard and conductive versions.
  • Locating Modules: Used for positioning pallets, available in basic and tunnel configurations. The basic module lifts pallets 2 mm, while the tunnel module accommodates product widths up to 320 mm.
Diverting and Merging Modules
  • Divert Modules: Guide pallets from one conveyor to another, available in 45° and 90° configurations.
  • Merge Modules: Guide pallets back into the main conveyor, also available in 45° and 90° configurations.
  • Interspace Modules: Combine divert and merge functions for efficient pallet recirculation.
Pallet Stops
  • Pneumatic Pallet Stops: Used to stop pallets at selected positions, with proximity sensors and integrated springs for safety.
Accessories
  • Brackets and Reflectors: Various mounting options for sensors and reflectors, including brackets for photo eyes and proximity switches.

Pallet system X85-1

Pallet system with standard modules and RFID XH XK XKP X180 X300 GR CS XT Based on modules The X85 pallet system is a complete system for handling individual products on product carriers (pallets). An automated system is built on configurable standard modules. Standard modules make it very easy and fast to create simple as well as advanced layouts for routing, balancing, buffering and positioning of pallets. RFID identification in the pallets enables one piece track and trace and logistic control for the production line. A standard line cabinet with power bus and communication bus systems provides fast installation and high flexibility for future changes. A combination of a highway and one or more satellites is WL often called a cell. Using divert/merge modules, it is possible to build cell junctions which facilitate transfer of a WK pallet from one cell to another. See figure. Cell Divert/merge devices Divert/merge devices are used for routing products by dividing or combining flows of products. Usually there is a main conveyor, a “highway”, and separate subordinated conveyors, “satellites”. On the satellites, products can be subjected to various operations such as turning, grinding, assembly or testing, without disturbing the main flow. After the operations, the products can return to the highway. Highway Cell junction Pallet system with standard modules and RFID

Pallets – introduction Pallet assortment Different thickness The X85 pallet system includes pallets that can be adapted to specific requirements such as The chain with closed top is 3 mm thicker than the chain with fingered top. But, since the pallets for clean environ- X300 ment are correspondingly thicker than the pallets for tough environment, the top side of all pallet types will be GR at the same height above the conveyor beam. This means that all pallet handling modules can be used as long as the right combination of pallet and chain is used. CS See figure. Tough environment conditions...
