Shuttle systems are used in intralogistics to automate the internal transport of goods and materials. They increase warehouse capacities, boost efficiency as well as productivity and reduce failures. Kendrion is a specialist for innovative solutions and brings more than 100 years of experience in the development and production of electromagnetic components. Based on the BSM043 rotary solenoid, Kendrion has developed a finger for shuttle vehicles that optimizes material handling in automated storage systems.
Store and retrieve goods with solenoid finger for shuttle systems
High radial forces and fast switching times
The BDM043 bistable rotary solenoid is the perfect solution for automated storage systems. Its 90° turning angle, combined with an aluminum finger (or any other material), makes it easy to store, retrieve, and transport goods safely. The solenoid holds its end positions currentless, making it ideal for battery-operated or capacitor discharge solutions. It resists high radial forces, ensuring greater safety for shuttle systems. It offers a duty cycle up to 100% and very fast switching times if required. Additionally, position detection is available.
Fields of application:
- Overhead conveyors and floor conveyors
- AGV
