Systems Solutions for Logistics and Conveyor Technology

Rapidly advancing globalisation, shorter product lifecycles and the demand for fast availability of goods are just some of the new challenges that the logistics industry – and many others – are facing. Issues such as Industry 4.0 and digitalisation are also part of the equation. The modern world calls for made-to-measure solutions, not simply the traditional wide range of off-the-peg solutions.

Today’s applications are highly individual and sophisticated, so equipment and components must be adapted to the requirements of the respective logistics systems in which they are used. iwis antriebssysteme and iwis mobility systems fulfils the strictest customer requirements with convincing quality and expert service.

High Quality and Reliability

Conveyor technology is a special sector of the mechanical engineering industry concerned with the design, configuration, planning and implementation of systems for the movement of unit loads (pallets, boxes, parcels etc.) as well as bulk goods or hanging goods.

In most cases, separation or buffering of the conveyed goods is also required. Conveyors are often either in-house transportation systems integrated into assembly lines of all kinds or part of large-scale automated logistics centres.

High Demands on Chains

Logistics is an umbrella term for transportation, warehousing and order-picking systems designed to support the overall flow of materials within a variety of different processes.

A wide range of drive chain systems are used in the above applications, which also place huge demands on chain characteristics such as surface finish, tolerances, tensile strength, fatigue strength, lubrication (or absence of lubricant) and reproducibility.

iwis is committed to producing chains of the highest quality and has implemented a comprehensive range of quality assurance measures to achieve this goal.

Chains for Logistics and Conveyor Technology Applications:

MEGAlife Maintenance-free

MEGAlife is synonymous with maintenance-free roller and conveyor chains. Just two typical reasons to use a maintenance-free chain are restricted access to conveyor systems for maintenance work, or when relubrication is inconvenient or undesirable. MEGAlife roller chains combine excellent wear protection and durability with corrosion protection and eco-friendliness, so they are ideal for environments where hygiene is critical.

Accumulation Chains

The outstanding features of iwis accumulation chains are their efficiency, durability and resultant cost-effectiveness. Accumulation chains guarantee problem-free positioning of conveyed goods and ensure that the conveyor starts and stops virtually without jolts.
