Dorner’s Smart Conveyor Options
Dorner offers a variety of smart conveyor solutions for businesses and manufacturing operations across all sizes. Each of our smart conveyor options offers innovative technology and features to ensure a great experience every time.
2200 Series Precision Move
The 2200 Series Precision Move is useful for greater product control and has the capacity for automated applications. The 2200 Precision Move is designed to move your product to exactly where it needs to be, in the exact position needed to ensure smooth production lines with no disruption.
The 2200 Series Precision Move features a reverse v-guide to provide positive tracking along the entire length of the conveyor. The positively driven belt ensures the belt does not slip and allows for higher load capacity.
3200 Series Precision Move
The 3200 Series Precision Move is ideal for precision part movement, medium to large part handling and positioning, automated and manual assembly, machine integration, robotic pick-n-place, and precision indexing.
The 3200 Series Precision Move features a high load capacity urethane belting with kevlar cords (True Timing Belt) and does not have a capacity drop when pushing the belt.
2200 Series Precision Move Pallet System
The 2200 Series Precision Move Pallet System is known for its innovative and modular design, featuring dual belt conveyor pallet systems for assembly automation.
The 2200 Series Precision Move Pallet System is best for medium to large-sized part movement, product routing, control, product inspection, and assembly automation.
3200 Series with Intralox ARB Technology
The 3200 Series ARB with Intralox Activated Roller Belt™ (ARB) Technology uses innovative conveyance technology for merging, diverting, and aligning of products. It has the flexibility to handle multiple product sizes without the need for changeover with minimum floor space consumption.
ERT250
The ERT250 utilizes Edge Roller Technology to provide low back pressure accumulation, non-contact zoning, and conventional transport, all without a belt. It features a clean, open roller design and is ideal for assembly automation and clean room applications.*
The ERT250 is ideal for clean room applications because it uses rollers to move pallets smoothly, without any friction.
*To verify clean room requirements, an unloaded base conveyor was tested and did not generate particulate that would be beyond the specified standards. However, the verification does not provide assurance that any or all applications will meet this requirement. Application testing is recommended to ensure clean room standards are being met. Dorner takes no responsibility in the clean room performance of the final conveyor or application.
