xiros polymer ball transfer units made of xiros F182

Safe load transport with electro-statically conductive ball transfer unit
Our xiros polymer ball transfer units made of xiros F182 are not only ideal for roller conveyor transfer devices but also transport sensitive goods and goods with sharp edges from A to B without any problems. The high-performance plastic used for the housing has special technical specifications that make it not only especially abrasion-resistant and durable but also electrostatically conductive. Uncontrolled discharging is a thing of the past for transport goods and customers. Loads of up to 500N can be moved smoothly in all directions. In addition, the polymer ball transfer unit can be used in any installation position, vertical, horizontal and overhead.
 
Application areas:  Semiconductor industry, electrical industry, electronic material handling

In the 4,100ft2 test laboratory, the new polymer ball transfer unit was tested with regard to its electrostatic conductivity. For this purpose, it was compared to the ball transfer unit made of the high-performance plastic xiros B180. The result of the lab test showed that the ball transfer unit made of xiros B180 with a surface resistance of 1012Ω already has an insulating effect, whereas the ball transfer unit with a housing made of xiros F182 achieves a surface resistance of less than 105Ω.
 
According to DIN EN 61340-5-1, this means that it must be assigned to the conductive category. Customers can therefore be certain: there is no chance of voltage flashover to transport goods or employees.
