  • Use it when the transfer point must stay fixed. The 0.05mm figure matters when a robot, camera, or downstream station needs the same stop every cycle.
  • Use it when speed and load both matter. The 40kg load reference supports fixture and part-carrier discussions without turning the line into a light-duty demo.

Decision path

Choose The Motion Problem First

These three checks break the conveyor decision into the exact questions most integrators ask before they wire the line.

Robot handoff

Pick this route when the conveyor must land a part at a fixed pickup point before robot work or vision inspection begins.

  • Best for indexed transfer cells.
  • Best when station-to-station timing is the hard part.

Repeated stops

Use this route when the line pauses often and dwell time must stay predictable while the part waits for the next action.

  • Best for cyclical assembly or inspection.
  • Best when a stop must repeat without drift.

Maintenance boundary

Use this route when service access, integration limits, and safety boundaries must be drawn before the conveyor is installed.

  • Best for teams planning the full cell layout.
  • Best when maintenance time matters as much as cycle time.

FAQ

Six Questions Buyers Usually Ask

What is the KS series precision link conveyor meant to do?

It combines conveying and positioning in one motion path for indexed automation cells, robot handoff, and station-to-station transfer.

What repeatability and speed should I plan around?

Plan around 0.05mm repeat positioning accuracy and 1000mm/s maximum operating speed.

How much load can it carry?

Use 40kg as the cumulative load reference, with a rigid and reliable structure.

Which automation settings does it fit?

It fits discussions around 3D printing, food packaging, dispensing machines, conveying and feeding, laser equipment, industrial automation, and vending machines.

What should I send for an RFQ?

Send the station layout, target stop positions, load, cycle timing, and whether the conveyor must coordinate with robot or vision steps.
