PRECISION INDEX CONVEYOR

Arnold Machine Inc.

Compact, easily mounted frame Simple pneumatic operation Positive link location Aluminum tooling plate links Several standard sizes available Custom configurations also available

Providing a cost effective solution for precision index applications.

Integration

The compact, modular design of the conveyor is easily adapted into inline process applications.

Tooling

Aluminum tooling plate links have standard tapped and dowel holes. Custom hole patterns and tooling is available.

Auxiliary Operations

Heavy duty steel side plates are well suited for mounting auxiliary tooling and components. Custom hole patterns may be added at manufacture.

Inline Processing

The inline concept allows part loading at several stations and automatic cycling vs. one station per cycle in a round index table layout.

Speed & Accuracy

With index accuracy of 0.003” throughout the unit, repeatable assembly operations are easily completed. Index times are 1-3 seconds depending on link size.

Custom Configurations

Custom configurations are also available. This is an example of a triple chain, independent index unit.

Carousel and elevated operation is also possible.

Controls and integration are also available.
