The iTRAK 5730 small-frame intelligent track system uses independent cart technology to support smart, flexible and efficient machines. By using magnetic propulsion, the individually controlled carts can start and stop quickly with precision, which reduces machine wear and is energy-efficient. The technology also manages quick changeovers using preconfigured move profiles that can be implemented with the push of a button from an HMI. The system has a 50-mm minimum pitch, making it suitable for primary packaging applications. It can integrate into a manufacturer’s architecture, providing analytics that help optimize energy use, monitor parts wear and reduce downtime.
