Weight to Transport
IMC modular conveyors are designed for light loads, of the parcel type, in which the maximum they can support per meter is 50 kilograms. Please, if you wish to transport a load greater than 50 kilos per meter, contact our team at [email protected], indicating which IMC model you wish to implement for loads greater than the maximum.
Profile Width
Our profile widths are limited to 4 types, standardized at 420, 520, 620 and 820mm, thus creating a wide range of easy-to-serve pre-assembled conveyors. If you want a width different from those proposed, please do not hesitate to make the pertinent query to the email [email protected]
controllers
The IMC units that need motorization must have a control card suitable for their programming. Within our models, the compatible cards are the following: ConveyLinx-Ai2, E-Qube-Ai, ConveyLinx-I0 and MotionLinx-Ai. These models have some special characteristics which you can check here.
As a main difference, you should know that the E-Qube-Ai card does not have the capacity to control more than one roller motor. Consequently, and since a motor roller can have traction for no more than 8 rollers (due to friction and traction drop in polyV belts), when selecting E-Qube-Ai for more than one linear meter of conveyor, you must select a minimum of two cards, one for each motorroller.
Transport speed
This information is interesting to be able to configure the perfect motor roller for your conveyor module. You can choose between speeds from 0.30 m/s to 2.20 m/s. Our recommendation is not to use a transport speed in our modules of more than 1.00 m/s.
If you wish to haul your merchandise at a higher speed than recommended, please contact us at [email protected]
pitch between rollers
Between roller and roller there is a space that we have standardized in three measurements. In fact, they are the 3 most common measures in this type of conveyors. You can tell by measuring the distance from the center of one roller to the center of the next.
This measurement helps us to place the precise rollers to transport your merchandise. For example: if you are going to transport boxes with a base of 300x300mm, you must distribute this load among at least 3 rollers. This way, if you choose the 90 pitch instead of the 60 pitch, your conveyor will contain fewer rollers and be just as efficient, at a lower price.
Module Length
In the standardization process we have selected the measures corresponding to each step from 0 to 3000 mm, which is the length limit for our conveyors.
This does not mean that Codimar cannot build them longer. If you need a conveyor with non-standard measurements, please contact [email protected]
