Roll Cars

RollCAR

The Harmax RollCAR is a two-position high speed roll transport system,  designed to deliver rolls of material from a remote roll storage area to multiple unwind stands while eliminating clamp trucks around operators:

  • Rolls of material are conveyed onto the RollCAR via segmented (tank track) conveyor belt.
  • The RollCAR delivers requested roll to unwind and retrieves butt roll or partial roll to be conveyed back to roll storage area.
  • The RollCAR is pit mounted and rides on heavy duty rails.
  • Power to the RollCAR is routed through pit mounted conductor bars.
  • System controls include:
    • Regenerative braking at car drive wheels.
    • On board manual maintenance controls.
    • Smart horns and flashing lights each end of car.
    • Laser safety scanners.
    • Programmed interface to unwind stands.
