Roller conveyors

• Roller conveyors are essential for fast, stable material flow in manufacturing
• direct FMS provides seamless roller conveyor control
• Integrates with sensors and scanning equipment for monitoring
• Efficient routing of goods through production lines
• Real-time communication with PLCs

AMS has extensive experience integrating roller conveyors into manufacturing lines. With direct FMS, you can control and coordinate these systems smoothly, ensuring rapid, stable material flow between machines and equipment. This improves capacity utilisation and makes the manufacturing process more predictable.

Roller conveyors enable efficient material handling

Roller conveyors are ideal wherever goods need to be moved quickly and continuously between workstations. By letting the conveyor network handle repetitive transport, machines and operators can focus on value-adding tasks. Products are transferred swiftly between different parts of the production line, while sensors and scanners monitor and manage flow at every stage.

direct FMS delivers real-time roller conveyor control

With direct FMS allows you to monitor and control roller conveyors in real time. It communicates directly with each conveyor’s PLC, ensuring movement happens at the right speed and in the correct sequence. When a machine becomes available, direct FMS automatically feeds the next product into the line and synchronises the movement with other equipment.

This avoids queues and prevents bottlenecks in production.

Seamless integration for coordinated manufacturing

Roller conveyors can be equipped with sensors, scanners and labelling devices, all operated via direct FMS. This allows goods to be identified while in transit and ensures each product reaches the correct destination. When roller conveyors are synchronised with machines and workstations, you achieve a fully integrated manufacturing flow where every component works together as one.

direct FMS gives you complete control of roller conveyors and all connected manufacturing equipment – delivering faster, more stable and better coordinated operations.
