Acceleration and deceleration controls limit the forces (shock) that are applied to accelerate or decelerate a load. Under certain conditions, the addition of an acceleration / deceleration device will help improve the life expectancy of critical parts on any type of conveyor, including Portec equipment. The majority of applications for Portec equipment do not require acceleration / deceleration devices. You can read more about applications that require acceleration or deceleration controls by downloading this Tech Bulletin #1210. Comments/Replies |
