Zone Buffering Zone Buffering is a transport system that provides contact free accumulation of product along conveyor lines. It features "intelligent zones"-each with its own sensor and motor controller-that effectively buffer products from one another. Products advance to the next zone only if that zone is unoccupied, protecting them from impacts with metering stops or backed-up product.
Additional features include forward/reverse operation, optically isolated PNP or NPN inputs and outputs, optional Intellizone PLC connector, choice of zone lengths and easy setup. All controls and zone connections are builtin-just supply 24 VDC.
Quickdraw conveyors feature self contained sensors, logic and motor controls integrated directly into the compact conveyor rail, while Zone Buffering technology delivers plug and go operation without a PLC. Patented slip driven rollers, clean roller design, and sealed bearings maintain Cleanroom requirements.

Features:
• Each Zone along the conveyor has its own drive motor and sensor module.
• The built-in logic of the zone will turn the motor on to receive product.
• A switch input on the zone control card will hold product regardless of the status of the next zone.
• Conveyor stops while product is accumulated.
