The Bosch Rexroth DRIVE KIT (3842537618) is a comprehensive solution designed to enhance the conveyance of workpiece pallets within automated systems. This drive kit is specifically engineered for integration with the Bosch transfer system, facilitating the movement of workpiece pallets through 90-degree curves without the necessity of an independent drive. It operates by connecting a belt section BS 1/T to either the curve output or the return unit UM 1 of a section unit, ensuring smooth transition and handling at both the start and end points of the curve. The DRIVE KIT AS 1 is compatible with round belts that are suitable for use in Electrostatic Protected Areas (EPA), making it versatile for various industrial environments where electrostatic discharge could be a concern. The kit can be set up to direct curves to the right (KR = R) or left (KR = L), offering flexibility in layout design and accommodating different operational requirements. Furthermore, it is important to utilize separation mechanisms with this drive kit to prevent accumulation on both the curve and overdrive belts, maintaining an efficient flow of materials. The installation location AO is indicative of how this device should be positioned at both the infeed and outfeed points along a curve, ensuring optimal performance. However, it’s critical to note that reversible operation is not supported by this model, which means that planning for unidirectional flow is essential when incorporating this drive kit into a conveyor system. Overall, Bosch's DRIVE KIT AS 1 provides a reliable method for enhancing material transport on conveyor curves, contributing to increased productivity and smoother operations within automated handling systems.
