Modular Mounting Systems for Conveyors
Modular mounting systems are a series of components that fit together to make adjustable rail mounts and sensor mounts that integrate directly onto conveyors. Traditionally, the designer must select these components individually and combine them to make a complete system. This is time consuming and leads to a lack of standardization that may be confusing or undesirable for customers. Ruland has greatly simplified this process by offering a number of predesigned systems for the most common conveyor applications. They have some degree of flexibility such as allowing users to select tubes with or without scale and how many adjustable levers they want to use, but the options are intentionally limited to speed up the design process. If users want to start from scratch, Ruland has put together a quick tutorial on how to select the various components to ensure they fit together. All modular mounting system components are sourced from JW Winco and stocked in our Marlborough, Massachusetts factory.
