Conveyor technology from item – get your production moving

Whether you’re looking for automated or manual material flows, the item Building Kit System is the ideal basis for building efficient materials handling equipment, ergonomic shooters and adaptable work bench interlinking. The modular design of the item Conveyor Belt System makes it easy for you to coordinate the transportation and handling of goods and work materials.

Materials handling – made modular, versatile and flexible

In intralogistics, it’s vital that materials and goods get from A to B quickly and reliably. With conveyor technology from item, you can combine efficiency and durability with modularity and compatibility with other product types. The range extends from roller conveyors – for shooters and interlinked work benches, for example – to suspended or overhead conveying and the item Conveyor Belt System.

The item Suspended Conveyor System

Transport bulky components in efficient, space-saving ways – with the item Suspended Conveyor System, you can place objects such as cable harnesses and mats in bags or hang them up to send them for further processing.

Separating items can be so easy

Optimise your conveying processes precisely: With the Release Unit DIN/DOUT 24V, you can precisely stop, separate and release containers and other small load carriers (SLCs) on roller conveyors. This enables you to create automated conveying lines with selective release of containers or intelligent interaction with SLC lifts.

An integrated control logic carries out release and separation processes autonomously. The integrated optical sensor monitors the material transfer and automatically detects whether the release has been carried out correctly. Parameterisation is carried out via a web interface using a Wi-Fi-enabled device.

“A modular design concept and compatibility with other item product ranges combine to create conveyor belt technology solutions that are configured specifically for the task at hand.”

– Christian Sommer – product manager at item Industrietechnik

Conveyor technology from item – what you need to know

Material handling components for unlimited possibilities

Transported goods vary in terms of their size, weight and shape. The broad range of item conveyor technology components offers the perfect solution for every challenge. The item Conveyor Belt System provides you with a wide range of conveyor belts and drives. These make it possible to optimise conveyor belts for a variety of speeds and loads. The item Suspended Conveyor System is ideal for components that are bulky or easily become entangled. A specially designed carriage provides a space-saving, gravity-powered solution for moving articles weighing up to 5 kg from A to B along a 3° incline.

Conveyor technology for efficient intralogistics

With the item MB Building Kit System and the item Lean Production Building Kit System, you can integrate transport solutions seamlessly into intralogistics operations that have been optimised with special materials handling technology. Whether it’s roller conveyors, slide strips, conveyor rollers or chain transfers, a whole variety of material handling components is available, alongside the item Conveyor Belt System and the item Suspended Conveyor System. You can use these elements to construct conveyor sections, shooters, mobile FIFO racks and tugger trains. What’s more, these materials handling technology elements complement the item Conveyor Belt System perfectly.
