01
Application context
The application required two lanes of pucks that would be running in a loop.
The top guide in the middle ensures that the center to center pitch of the pucks stays consistent around the corners.

Design considerations
The base conveyor is a FlexMove FL 150 mm Conveyor. The conveyor features a top running loop which creates a continuous circuit of conveyance. Top running loops are ideal for puck handling applications as well as pallet systems and small manufacturing cells.
In the final system, a stopper module will hold the pucks in place at a certain point on the loop for scanning. A robot will then unload them to another machine for further processing.
