Twin-Trak® Side by Side Conveyor by Richards-Wilcox

Features

• Eleven Standard Zig-Zag Components
  Twin-Trak™ uses the same standard components as Richards Wilcox chain conveyors.
• Eight Standard Safe-Rail Components
  Twin-Trak™ uses the same standard components as Richards Wilcox standard monorails.
• Easy Switching
  You can switch into and out of the main line at a greater frequency (at closer load centers) than other power and free design systems.
• Capacities
  Twin-Trak™ combines a 3/16” plate steel load track with carrier handling up to 1,000 lbs. 
• Cutting Edge Controls
  The Twin-Trak™ allows simple PLC based controls to complex PC based routing and tracking systems.
• Made in the U.S.A.

Benefits

• It can be built from pre-existing Richards-Wilcox systems, such as Safe-Rail and Zig-Zag, saving you valuable resources. Once a Safe-Rail monorail or a Zig-Zag chain conveyor system is in place, standard in-stock parts can be added to create a Twin-Trak™ power & free conveyor system.
• It optimizes headroom in facilities with limited space;
  This frees up space for other power and free equipment.
• Twin-Trak™ eliminates the typical wait time associated with storage banks, increasing throughput.
• The Twin-Trak™ uses minimal floor space;
  By storing work-in-process overhead, calling it down in the quantity and order needed at each operation, the Twin-Trak™ uses minimal floor space, saving you valued square footage.
• The system optimizes production;
  The Twin-Trak™ ensures that the right parts arrive at the correct operation in a continuous flow, especially when rates of production differ between operations.
• Twin-Trak™ eliminates product re-handling and manual transporting by integrating finishing and assembly processes into one material handling system. 
• Twin-Trak™ boosts efficiency;
  It maintains a traveling record of each work-in-process, recording where the product has been and detecting where defects may have occurred.
