The Bosch Rexroth RETURN 160+ STS (3842547531) is a state-of-the-art return unit designed for versatile conveyor system applications. It features reduced noise emission due to its slide rails that are guided seamlessly within the return unit. This product allows for the installation of a drive kit on either the right or left side, providing flexibility in motor, coupling, and flange configurations. The integrated hexagonal hollow shaft is a standard feature that facilitates the drive of parallel conveyor sections or bridges, enhancing the unit's adaptability to various system layouts. The RETURN 160+ STS is built with ball bearings made from non-rusting steel, ensuring durability and compliance with FDA regulations due to their seal on both sides and grease filling. Furthermore, it allows for easy implementation of parallel sections through a pluggable shaft design. Side elements are included with mounting options for attaching holders for lateral guides or similar components, expanding its utility. With an effective sliding rail length and actual chain length tailored to specific needs, this return unit maintains a balance between performance and weight efficiency. It comes assembled with fastening material included and a connector enclosed to facilitate immediate installation upon delivery. This product is suitable for all track widths and compatible with all chain types. It can withstand permissible chain tensile forces up to specified limits in both return unit function (Fmax N) and head drive function without chain bag (Fmax N). Additionally, it offers a conveying speed of vN m/min, with other speeds available upon request. The Bosch Rexroth RETURN 160+ STS is not intended for reversible operation but excels in applications requiring shortened maintenance intervals due to chain elongation. Its innovative drive concept makes it an ideal choice for creating complete drives when paired with configurable drive kits – whether as part of a head drive direct setup or in combination with the return unit itself.
