Award presented
Overhead conveyor system from item receives the iF Design Award 2024
item has already won the iF Design Award more than ten times. This year, the company received the award for its overhead conveyor system, which makes it easy to optimize transport processes.
The overhead conveyor system won the award. It enables particularly efficient provision of materials which, due to their irregular shape, are better transported hanging over a conveyor line. The overhead conveyor system is cost-effective, flexible to use and space-saving, making it a convincing alternative to transportation in small load carriers.
Longer conveyor sections can also be implemented without a drive
The conveyed goods only move from A to B with the help of gravity. To do this, it is attached to carriages that are suspended in track profiles. Using intelligent connection technology, the running rails are attached to a frame made from the D30 profile tube system at an angle of 3°. This creates transport trolleys or racks with an integrated overhead conveyor system. Longer conveyor sections can also be realized.
All components of the overhead conveyor system have rounded and coordinated contours. These product features result in ergonomic and safe working conditions. The working height can be individually adjusted. The system is easy to understand and quick to set up. The design and colour scheme harmonize with the other components in the item Building Kit System. Large radii ensure a pleasant feel. Ultimately, it was not only the functional benefits that convinced the jury, but also the choice of materials, the concept and the clear design.
