Wherever high piece rates accumulate in a short time, either in production or distribution, buffer zones must be flexible enough to cope with the varying volumes. The 763 system provides a speedy and clearly organised movement of goods to and from the storage area. The control and organisation of the flow of goods shortens truck loading and unloading time.
The 763 system is a single-rail overhead conveyor on which trolleys can be transported manually, semi-automatically or fully-automatically.
The overhead trolley conveyor is a flexible conveyor system that is mounted on the ceiling (off-floor) and with which goods can be transported, sorted or buffered. It comes into play wherever high volumes of goods have to be moved. Goods can be counted, checked, labelled and picked in the buffer storage within complex warehouse or distribution systems.

Modular system
Tailored to your specific requirements, the system can, at any time, be expanded, modified, automated ...Any number of conveyor carrier types can be implemented, depending on the goods to be conveyed: standardised trolleys, custom-built carriers and adaptable hanging pallets for the transport of cases or boxes.
By using telescopic conveyors at the goods receipt and despatch bays you can reduce truck loading and unloading times substantially!
Automated empty trolley buffers located at the goods receipt bays lead to speedy unloading of the delivered goods.
Manual
Trolleys are pushed or pulled by hand.
Semi-automatic
The additional implementation of power-driven systems allows the trolleys to be semi-automated with drag and brake chain conveyors. Drag and brake chain conveyors with an upward gradient of up to 30° are used to link different levels. The speed of conveyance is approx. 20 m/min. which adds up to a capacity of up to 1,000 trolleys an hour.
