Enhance Your Automation with

Pallet-Handling Conveyors

Pallet-handling conveyors utilize pallets to transport

workpieces asynchronously between stations. Pallets range in

size from 10x10 inches to 48x48 inches, and are capable

of carrying loads of nearly 1,000 lbs.

Pallet-handling Conveyor Benefits Are Delivered By:

• Continuously moving materials from point to point


• Handling every item in the same fashion with no variance


• Removing production inefficiencies and wasteful delay by
  streamlining and standardizing the movement of material


• Consistent material handling routines, ultimately reduces work in
  process and allows greater throughput


• Eliminating bottlenecks and operations that require labor but, do
  not add value


• Easily adapt to changing demands and production requirements


• Efficiently handle changes to work flow by adding in new stops,
  locates or transfer components

“FA-IT Integration Functions” with the full line of Mitsubishi

Electric FA products such as PLCs, motion controllers, VFDs,

HMIs, and CNC, as well as MES/SCADA packages provide a level

of performance, functionality and ease of use unparalleled in the

industry. In addition, the open platform architecture OS enables

integration with 3rd party devices normally difficult or impossible

to use on closed platforms. With such flexibility, capability and

performance, increases to both productivity and maintainability can

be achieved, resulting in a lower TCO (Total Cost of Ownership).
