Successful psb mtr micro trolley system

psb captivated the visitors at the »CeMAT 2011« in Hannover, Germany, with current topics all about intralogistics. On the psb stand, numerous visitors could experience »intralogistics live«, with new launches presented there for the first time: Besides the energy-efficient psb shuttle system vario.sprinter, and the award-winning high performance order picking system rotapick, the new psb micro trolley overhead conveyor system mtr attracted a lot of attention.

Outstanding features of the psb mtr: its compact structure and low height. Incline tracks, minimum curve radius, plus an output of up to 10,000 items per hour, are further key attributes. Utilizing the Power&Free technique, the micro trolley can be conveyed, or buffered, in the horizontal plane, or stored temporarily on incline tracks with a slight gradient. It depends on the individual situation, which of these methods is applied. The matrix sorting principle, which is also realized in other psb overhead conveyor systems, is an important operating feature of the system: In the fashion (hanging garments) or automotive (seat covers) sectors, for example, it is possible (and in most case invaluable) to generate strict single-item order sequences. The latest generation of the psb mtr has been designed to operate with a great variety of different types of hangers: hangers made of both, metal and synthetic material, are handled safely and with a high flexibility.

The trolley bag, presented at the CeMAT, generally allows for the sortation of flat items too. With the psb mtr, shirts, shoes, accessories, etc. can be put into the trolley bags and conveyed, stored, sorted and made available for shipment (dispatch).
