MANUFACTURER: PAX Products
Pax's patented EGD (Elliptical Geared Drive) conveyor is an electrically driven, oscillating-type conveyor that utilizes a motorized, elliptical gear drive (EGD). Utilizing elliptical gears in a sealed oil bath provides an extremely reliable drive and a high conveying speed at lower RPMs.
The EGD conveyor is currently available in three sizes, rated based on the total tray weight, excluding the weight of the parts and scrap on the trays.
Tray brackets simply snap in place over the round portion of the crossbar without the use of tools. The machined, Acetal brackets bolt to the side of the conveyor tray can rotate on the crossbar if the tray needs to run on a slight angle.
The elliptical drive gears are bathed in oil inside of a sealed gearbox. This arrangement minimizes the reverse inertia effects that create issues for many other conveyor designs.
The EGD conveyor is electrically driven which means that it does not have the high operating costs and ongoing maintenance issues that are associated with many air-driven conveyors.
