7.7 Wheel drive

Wheel drives are used in non-continuous conveyors. The drives are on the vehicle and therefore on

the non-stationary part. Compared to continuous conveyors, non-continuous conveyors have a

greater flexibility, but also higher costs for the individual vehicle. Therefore they are usually used for

cases where the transport volume and the use of the conveyor section is lower than for continuous

conveyors.

There are railway vehicles and non-railway vehicles. For railway vehicles the effort for tracking is

lower, however, they are not as flexible with regard to the routing . Since many automated internal

transport tasks have a defined travel way, they are frequently found in automated operation. For

non-automated internal transport the manually operated fork lift still is the most frequently used

means of transport in the field of industrial trucks.

Wheel drives in non-continuous conveyors can be found in the following applications:

• In rail vehicles (e. g. transfer carriages)

• In monorail overhead conveyors (MOC)

• In travelling and gantry cranes

• In storage and retrieval units (SRU)

• In automated guided vehicle systems (AGV).

 Note!

The calculation only applies to travelling drives which are solely actuated by means of

wheels (no rope or rack and pinion).

Applications with toothed belts can be found in connection with the belt models.
