Conveyors available in variety of configurations
PosiGrip from TKF is a powered, non-contact, zero-pressure accumulation conveyor system and is available in a variety of flexible configurations.

PosiGrip comes in both standard motor driven and motorized roller driven zero pressure accumulation styles. It is available in standard sizes from 18 to 45 inches effective widths and in zone lengths from 15 to 60 inches, with other sizes available. Capable of running from 25 to 120 FPM with roller centres of either 2.5 or 3.75 inches, and unit loads of up to 400 pounds per zone, PosiGrip is designed to meet the needs of most conveying requirements.

Also available in the PosiGrip system: PosiGrip driven roller curves with a 32.5-inch inside radius and 18- to 42-inch effective widths, which can be equipped with straight, tapered or true tapered rollers; a PosiGrip self-contained lifting gate section for access behind or through a conveyor section; and popup transfer lifts which lift items vertically and then convey them 90 degrees to an adjoining conveyor. In all PosiGrip configurations, gear teeth for the roller drives are formed directly into the rollers and are powered by synchronous geared belting in a positive, non-slip drive configuration. The geared design provides superior drive force versus line shaft and O-ring driven conveyors. Each motorized drive roller includes a drive card that allows easy adjustment of speed in each zone providing complete control over product spacing. Since the zones are powered independently of one another and only when required, power consumption is minimized.
