Overhead Trolley Conveyor Systems (Light/Medium Duty)

Steady & Reliable Manufacturer

Product Detailed Professional Description

Overhead Trolley Conveyor Systems utilize trolleys on fixed centers (e.g., 150 mm to 600 mm pitch) riding on an I-beam or enclosed track, pulled by a continuously moving chain. These systems offer continuous material flow, freeing up floor space, and are ideal for light to medium-weight products requiring transport through assembly processes, paint booths, or curing ovens. Key specifications include maximum trolley load capacity, chain pitch, and track curvature radius, determining the system’s flexibility and load limits.

Introduction & Company Integration

Wuxi Huiqian specializes in flexible, floor-space saving overhead material flow solutions. Our Overhead Trolley Conveyors are engineered with smooth-running, sealed-bearing trolleys and precision-welded track sections, ensuring consistent movement and longevity. By raising the conveyor system, we provide customers with an efficient method to transport components through complex, multi-process routings while maintaining unobstructed access to the production floor.

Application Fields

Painting and Finishing: Carrying parts through pre-treatment, washing, painting, and drying ovens.
Garment/Apparel Sorting: Moving hanging garments through sorting and staging areas.
Light Assembly: Transporting chassis or components between sequential manual workstations.
Storage Buffers: Utilizing overhead space to create compact, high-density component storage queues.

Specification

Track Type	Enclosed Track (Safer, Cleaner) or Open I-Beam (Higher Load)
Trolley Pitch (Center)	150 mm to 600 mm (Distance between hanging points)
Maximum Load per Trolley	5 kg to 150 kg (System dependent)
Drive Mechanism	Caterpillar (Dog) Drive or Sprocket Drive
Speed Range	Variable, typically 0.1 to 15 m/min

Material Selection Guide

Materials are selected for wear resistance and low rolling friction:

Track: Cold-rolled steel I-beam or heavy-duty tubular profile, often with a powder-coated finish.
Chain: Heat-treated, high-tensile steel drive chain (often rivetless) for long wear life and continuous operation.
Trolleys: Cast iron or forged steel bodies with sealed, permanently lubricated precision bearings.

Advantages & Core Features

Floor Space Optimization: Lifts transport activity overhead, clearing floor space for production machinery, inventory, and personnel movement.
Continuous Flow: Provides uninterrupted, synchronous flow, ensuring consistent cycle times and material availability at each workstation.
High Versatility: Easily integrates vertical curves and tight horizontal turns, allowing complex routing through multiple building levels or processes.
Load Stability: Hanging the product below the center of gravity provides inherent stability during transport and turning.

FAQ

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

Q: Why choose an enclosed track over an I-beam track?
A: Enclosed tracks prevent debris and dust from contaminating the track/chain/trolley bearings, making them suitable for paint shops or clean environments. I-beams offer higher load capacity but require more frequent cleaning.

Q: How does the system handle changes in elevation?
A: The track is fabricated with vertical curves (up or down). The chain and trolley are designed with the flexibility to smoothly follow these curves, maintaining continuous motion up or down the required incline/decline.

Production & Customization Services

We focus on process integration and fixture design:

Custom Hangers/Fixtures: Designing and fabricating bespoke product hangers, hooks, or rotating fixtures that securely hold the component during its entire process route (e.g., rotation for paint coverage).
Integrated Lubrication: Installing automated, timed lubricators on the track system to deliver controlled amounts of oil to the chain pins and trolley bearings.
Drive Synchronization: Providing Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) controls for precise speed synchronization with automated machinery or processing time requirements (e.g., oven residence time).
