MBS PickStar RL System from RobotUnits

MBS PickStar RL System from RobotUnitsThe MBS PickStar RL combines the unique extrusion and fastening technology with individually configurable roller tracks for the provision of conveyed goods. The low-noise gravity conveyor lines for containers or cartons are designed to transport totes or cartons weighing up to 30kg. The track widths and lengths are infinitely adjustable – ideal for optimizing the material flow in production and logistics.

Benefits:

  • Variety of applications possible with quick-to-assemble components
  • Long-term process reliability
  • Great flexibility with minimum effort

MBS PickStar RL System Q & A

+ What is the MBS PickStar RL System and what is it used for?
The PickStar RL system is a modular roller-track material-handling system built around the PickStar extrusion & fastening platform. It enables configurable gravity roller tracks (or low-noise roller conveyance) for containers, cartons or totes weighing up to about 30 kg (≈ 66 lbs).
+What load capacity can the PickStar RL system handle?
The documentation states the rolling version (RL) supports loads up to about 30 kg (≈ 66 lbs).
+ How customizable is track width and other dimensions?
Very customizable. Track width, inside height, total length, inclination, and other parameters can be adjusted or configured to the specific application. For example the “Compact” and “Ergonomic” variants highlight custom width and height.
+ Can the system be integrated into manual workstations or ergonomic setups?
Yes. There is an “Ergonomic” version of the RL system which is designed for ergonomic (semi-circular) gripping chambers, adjustable inclination, track width, protrusion and inside height.
+ How about noise levels and maintenance?

The system emphasizes “low-noise gravity conveyor lines” for containers or cartons. Gravity flow reduces mechanical drive parts (motors, belts) so maintenance can be lower. However you’ll still want to inspect rollers, bearings, ensure proper lubrication (if required), and check for contamination (catalog mentions track covers to prevent contamination).
