Transfer Systems from Rexroth. The Right Solution for Every Type of Production.

Years of experience, durable products and innovative technology are the main characteristics of the Rexroth transfer systems.

The programme includes double belt and accumulation roller conveyor systems to transport weights of just a few grams up to 300 kg. Identification systems are integrated to control the workpieces in the system and to document quality assurance data.

With just six different, highly-integrated basic modules, the flexible assembly and transfer system MTS 2 for small and medium-sized series meets all the requirements of an efficient transfer system. You can convert this system in a matter of minutes without having to interrupt production.

In the factory automation sector, there is an ever-increasing demand for conveyor systems that can transport, store and position workpieces in a horizontal as well as vertical direction. VarioFlow, the new chain conveyor system from Rexroth, offers numerous convincing factors: it costs less than other chain conveyor systems and boasts better performance statistics.

Whether you are looking for a simple conveyor circuit or a more complex production system, Rexroth material and information flow technology is used for production, assembly and testing tasks throughout the world.
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

   
 

TS 1 Transfer System. Precision Assembly and Fast Processes.

The Rexroth TS 1 transfer system is the one to choose if smaller products or assemblies need to be produced. It has been especially designed for the precise assembly of more demanding products. One of the strengths of the TS 1 is that it can be integrated into the pre- or part assembly stage of a larger system. The TS 1 meets the same high standards of quality as all the Rexroth transfer systems i.e. long service life, sturdiness and easy maintenance.

  Selected TS 1 units

Small products and exact procedures need to be positioned and reproduced precisely, and this is exactly the right task for the TS 1 position unit.
Different types of workpiece pallets in either plastic or stainless steel complete the range of precise units offered by Bosch.

Application examples

The TS 1 is, for example, used in the fields of medicine technology (hearing aids, pacemakers), electronics (hard disk drives, regulators, sensors), precision mechanics (small motors, switches) and optics (contact lenses).

 

   
 

TS 2plus Transfer System. Multi-Talented for a Wide Range of Applications.

The Rexroth TS 2plus transfer system is a multi-talented system, which guarantees economic production. It is a diverse modular system that meets the requirements of a broad spectrum of different products.


Special TS 2plus units

Apart from the different types of conveying media (polyamide belts, toothed belts, flat top chains and accumulation roller chains), the TS 2plus also provides an abundance of specific units including curves, transverse conveyors, position and drive units. In addition to this, the time and effort spent on planning and designing can also be reduced to a minimum thanks to the predefined macro modules.

TS 2plus Heavy Duty

The new heavy-duty components of the Rexroth TS 2plus transfer system optimize transport of heavy workpieces on small surfaces. The systematic use of steel parts instead of synthetic ones in critical areas permits continuous loads up to 200 kg per meter. Reinforced conveyor profiles and stainless steel guides combined with sturdy conveyor chains open up new applications in a variety of industries.

TS 2plus Lean

Lower investment and maintenance costs, as well as fast commissioning, are the main features of the TS 2plus Lean. Its easy-to-install components are optimized for small and light products of up to 10 kilograms. Users are thus able to save up to 20 percent right from the procurement phase, as compared to conventional solutions. Low overall costs for linking manual workstations and automatic stations in the TS 2plus Lean system enable streamlined production in, for example, the automotive supplier industry, electronics industry, or medical technology industry.

Application examples

The wide range of different applications demonstrates just how diverse the TS 2plus is: it is used for example by automotive suppliers (motor controls, car radios, headlights, sun roofs), electronics (computers, monitors, printers, decoders) as well a for producing small household appliances (coffee machines, irons) and electric tools (drills, cutters).

 

 

 

TS 4plus Transfer System. For Assembling Heavy Workpieces.

The TS 4plus transfer system is intended for transporting heavy workpieces weighing up to 250 kg. For this reason, it is ideal for applications in the car manufacturing industry, household equipment and entertainment electronics. The TS 4plus modular system enables you to efficiently transport material using either simple circuit systems or more complex systems involving outfeed stations.

The robust system

TS 4 plus transports workpiece pallets on long-life and low-friction accumulation roller chains. They ensure that the workpiece pallets are transported securely even under the most difficult production conditions.

Application examples

The TS 4plus is, for example, used for assembling televisions, large household equipment, gardening equipment or for producing assemblies or modules in the car manufacturing and automotive supplier industry. 
 

Transfer System TS 5. For Loads Up to 300 Kilograms

The Rexroth TS 5 transfer system can transport loads up to 300 kilograms. This powered roller conveyor allows the user a great deal of freedom for fast, simple and cost-effective system planning or extensions, even for very long production lines. Products can be transported either on a workpiece pallet or directly on a continuous roller track. The TS 5 transfer system has a modular design and is pre-assembled. All components can be combined with each other. The robust construction makes the TS 5 especially suited for harsh production environments, for example those found in the automotive industry. In contrast to traditional roller chain conveyor systems, the TS 5 can also be used in machining applications.

Driven by high-quality technology: the king shaft
The TS 5 transfer system with king shaft offers you considerable advantages compared to the normal chain drives:

       absolutely maintenance-free

       noise-free operation

high energy efficiency through effective performance

TSsolar Transfer System for Transport of Photovoltaic Modules

Photovoltaic modules in thin-film and silicon cell technology can be transported directly on the new Rexroth TSsolar transfer system. The TSsolar is based on the proven TS 2plus transfer technology and has been customized to suit the specific demands in the solar industry.

 

It is ideal for standardized series production with high-volume, top-quality output. Thanks to their closed surface and a special treatment, the system’s toothed belts feature particularly low friction and wear. The TSsolar fulfills the requirements for clean room class 6 (DIN EN ISO 14644-1) and can be used throughout ESD environments. As accumulation of solar components is not permitted during transport, each section element has its own drive. Frequency converters enable the soft stop and accelerating operations required for the sensitive solar products.

 

Depending on the module size, users can select from various conveyor sections with multiple tracks and lengths of up to six meters. Rexroth also offers the right lift transverse units to move the products from longitudinal to transverse conveyors. A special heat-resistant conveyor version is available for applications such as transporting hot glass plates with temperatures of up to 200°C. As with all of Rexroth's other transfer systems, the pre-assembled and ready-to-use TSsolar components can be freely combined with elements from the Manual Production Systems range and modular aluminum profile system.

 

 

VarioFlow Chain Conveyor System. Superb Performance — Unbeatable value

The basic facts make VarioFlow, the new chain conveyor system from Rexroth, a compelling new option: It is more economical than other chain conveyor systems and offers substantially better performance.

Extreme load capacity
Its extraordinarily stable chain allows VarioFlow to achieve chain tensile forces of up to 1,250 N. The nearly closed chain surface allows even small components to be conveyed without complication. An extensive range of conveyor modules provides solutions for the most diverse conveying tasks.

Adapts quickly to any task
An outstanding VarioFlow characteristic is easily it adapts to specific tasks. VarioFlow masters even the most difficult layouts where other conveyor systems fail. On-site adaptation to complex applications is a breeze, and usually requires the exchange of just a few components, such as the chain or the slide rails.
