EV-Battery Conveyor Solutions
mk North America is unveiling upgrades to its VersaMove line of pallet-handling conveyor systems at Automate 2023. VersaMove has been expanded to accommodate the demands of the ev-battery industry, in particular for battery pack assembly and battery pack testing. The weight limits, per pallet or battery pack if you will, have increased from 800 lbs. to 1,200 lbs. Additionally, the maximum width has increased to 1,500 mm and the conveyor system can convey the ev-battery packs directly, without the use of a pallet. The wide and narrow footprint of ev-battery packs is easily accommodated with VersaMove. Higher loads and widths are available upon request.
The re-tooled VersaMove system is just one of the many conveyor solutions offered by mk that is suitable to the ev-battery industry. In conjunction with this updated conveyor system, mk has also launched a new brochure which focuses on their conveyor lines that are suitable for the ev-battery industry.
mk is located at booth #2207 at Automate which runs from May 22 to May 25, 2023, and is located at the Huntington Convention Center in Detroit, MI
