The Bosch Rexroth BASE UNIT 160+ STS DIRECT (3842547525) is a versatile and robust base unit designed to serve as the foundation for advanced conveyor systems. This product features reduced noise emission thanks to its slide rails guided in the head drive, ensuring a quieter operation that is ideal for environments where noise levels are a concern. The unit allows for installation of the drive kit on either the right or left side, providing flexibility in motor, coupling, and flange configurations. The integrated double-sided hexagonal hollow shaft is a standout feature, allowing for easy driving of parallel conveyor sections or bridges, contributing to the system's modular design and expandability. With ball bearings made of non-rusting steel and sealed on both sides using FDA-compliant grease filling, this base unit is designed to meet stringent hygiene standards required in food processing and pharmaceutical industries. Side elements offer mounting options for holders of lateral guides and similar accessories, enhancing the unit's adaptability to different applications. The product comes with all necessary fastening materials included, ensuring a complete solution ready for assembly upon delivery. The BASE UNIT 160+ STS DIRECT can accommodate all track widths and chain types while withstanding a maximum permissible chain tensile force. It offers customizable conveying speeds with options available upon request. Additionally, it includes a chain bag to compensate for elongation during the service life of the chain but is not suitable for reversible operation. In terms of material composition, key components such as the chain wheel and guide are made from PA (polyamide), while housing and connectors are constructed from non-rusting steel, ensuring durability and longevity. The size b model supports PA hexagonal shafts up to a certain size before transitioning to non-rusting steel construction. Overall, this innovative drive concept provides an efficient solution for building sophisticated conveyor systems that require reliability, flexibility in design, and compliance with hygiene standards.
