MOVITRANS® is a contactless energy transfer system for mobile loads. Consisting of both a stationary converter/transformer and one or more mobile pick-up units, it transfers electrical power between components without any contact (inductively) via an air gap. Because there is no contact MOVITRANS® experiences no wear and tear and is virtually maintenance-free
Applications
Floor conveyors
Transport systems in logistics centers
Automated guided vehicle systems (AGV)
Conveyor trolleys (skillet)
Product Advantages
No service technician needed:
Users can compensate the track inductance easily using
MOVITRANS® SHELL TPS startup software
The mobile pick-ups are much narrower than comparable systems
The stationary module's compact design takes up little control cabinet space and is easy to install
Better tolerance (up to 20mm) for mechanical application building due to large air gap between line cable and pick-up units
Integrated end-to-end solution from a single accountable source
When to Use
The mobile equipment has to cover long distances
A variable, extendable track layout is required
High speeds have to be achieved
The energy transfer has to be maintenance-free
Additional environmental contaminants are not permitted in sensitive areas
