Omnidirectional Transfer Unit
Avancon brings boxes around the corner
With the OTU, Avancon has developed a module that makes it possible to build diverters, diverters, crossings, transfers, corner diverters, X-double crossings and even sorters for complex and large conveyor systems.
The OTU (Omnidirectional Transfer Units) is a multifunctional module for transporting goods of all kinds in any desired direction. The element can be used for crates and cartons of any size in logistics and distribution centers and fits into almost all conveyor designs, according to the manufacturer.
The OTU is supplied fully assembled as an OTU table, equipped with a power supply unit, BLDC motors and the necessary controls. The OTU tables can be used in many other cases, such as for order picking in front of a high-bay warehouse or for moving goods in a straight direction or to move goods around corners, to realize a U-turn or simply to convey goods from a driven line for inspection or processing.
The OTUs are designed to carry ten kilograms each and can move at a speed of up to 1.5 meters per second. The size of an OTU table is theoretically unlimited. as
