What is a unit to transfer the ball?

The ball transmission unit is an OMNI-Direct transport device with low friction, which forms part of specialized transport systems. The ball transmission unit consists of a large, precise ball bearing locked in a metal cover with its upper area protruding. The lower edge of the ball is on a layer of smaller ball bearings, also locked on site in the cover. This allows the large ball to rotate freely in all directions with very small friction. The series of balls of balls are mounted in rows on metal runners, which are in turn mounted side by side on a traffic bed that offers a large area of ​​free rotating balls, over which the material can be smoothly passed in any direction. As effective as they do, conventional conveyors have one clear disadvantage - they can only move the material in one direction. Many applications require the material to move several directions on the conveyor deposit, but requires a unique solution. One such solution is the unit,which allows relocation of goods placed on the conveyor deposit in all directions.

The ball transmission unit is a relatively simple, unlimited device that relies on smooth movement without friction, which is its own free rotary ball bearings. These devices consist of a large ball bearing closed in a tubular case, which is limited or limited at one of its end. This restriction holds the ball in the housing and at the same time allows it to rotate freely, with part of its surface protruding from the tube. In the hemispheric cup below the large ball, a layer of smaller balls is arranged in constant contact with the lower surface of a large ball. This allows smooth rotation of a large ball of all directions with a minimum of friction.

A number of these ball transmission units are then mounted on a flat plate or runner. These boards are then arranged in the rows against each other on the transport bed. This savingThe aid is a large surface of balls with free rotations on which the material can be smoothly moved in all directions. Another advantage of the modular nature of these conveyors is the easy replacement of each individual unit for transmission of the ball that suffers from damage or otherwise becomes non -operative. The low profile and modest size of these units are also ideal for applications where similar devices such as Mecanum and Omni Wheel are not suitable.
