The Bosch Rexroth GLIDE PLATE (3842528773) is a robust and versatile component designed for use in conveyor systems, particularly with the VFplus 65 transfer system. This steel wear pad serves as a durable surface that enables the smooth and efficient movement of workpiece pallets during transport operations. It is crafted to ensure a level working surface without indentations, allowing for the entire top of the workpiece pallet to be utilized for mounting, as all necessary components are pre-mounted below its top. The GLIDE PLATE is engineered to be compatible with Bosch's ID 15 identification system, offering the possibility for integrated mobile data tag installation. This feature enhances tracking and automation capabilities within the production process. Additionally, the design allows for products that extend beyond the dimensions of the workpiece pallet, provided that their center of gravity is appropriately considered. Customers are required to equip their mounted workpiece pallets with wear pads—available in either steel or PE (polyethylene). Steel pads are ideal for harsh environments due to their high hardness value (HV ≥ 480), while PE pads are suitable for cleaner settings. The modular design accommodates various lengths of workpiece pallets up to 500 mm, with specific configurations recommended based on pallet length. Key components include an aluminum WT plate with a natural anodized finish, black PA end pieces, and wear pads made from either stainless steel or PE. These elements come together to provide a reliable solution for transporting non-accumulative or geometrically unstable products at speeds up to 18 m/min. With its robust construction and compatibility features, this glide plate offers an effective solution for enhancing conveyor system performance.
