The vehicles used for the electrified monorail system KB180 Heavy (EMS KB180 Heavy) are designed as trains of four. Accompanying conveyors can be integrated into the overhead for pallet transport, regardless of application (e.g. roller, chain, or belt conveyors). The double vehicle offers clear advantages in comparison to the conventional two-vehicle train. The doubled load enables increased plant throughput and thus system performance, while also resulting in fewer cycles at transfer points. Investment costs are lowered by economizing on electric cars and control components. This system also provides high speeds and acceleration with sturdy construction and low noise emission.
Thanks to its long service life, the electrified monorail system KB180 Heavy is ideal for interlinking different trades in in-plant material flow.
