The invention relates to a transport apparatus for conveying a product, comprising a moveable conveying element () for conveying a product, a stationary sliding rail () that is arranged around the circumference for guiding the conveying element (), and a drive device () for a linear motor for driving the conveying element (), wherein the conveying element () comprises a main body (), a pusher finger () that can be brought into contact with the product, and a permanent magnet () that is operatively connected to the drive device () for the linear motor, wherein the conveying element () comprises a first running device (), which is arranged on a side of the conveying element () in the running direction (A) of the conveying element (), and a second running device () which is arranged on the other side of the conveying element () in the running direction (A) of the conveying element (), and wherein the conveying element () comprises a guiding device () that is arranged such that a resulting pre-stressing force (F) guides the conveying element () on the sliding rail () between the permanent magnet () and the drive device () for the linear motor.

Transport apparatus

A conveyor system, in particular for supplying packaging machines, which has a revolving conveyor segment with a curved region. An electromagnetic drive is provided with a plurality of stationary coil elements and a plurality of permanent magnets. The stationary coil elements are disposed along the conveyor segment, and at least one rotor is disposed movably on the conveyor segment and is movable by electromagnetic forces. The permanent magnets are disposed on the rotor. A first row of coil elements and a second row of coil elements are disposed in the curved region such that the second row of coil elements is disposed radially outside the first row of coil elements.

Revolving conveyor system with an improved drive concept

The invention relates to an ultrasonic welding device for welding foil-like materials and includes an ultrasound sonotrode, an anvil, an adjusting unit for adjusting a relative position between the ultrasound sonotrode and the anvil, and a regulating unit which regulates, via the adjustment unit, a width of a working gap between the ultrasound sonotrode and the anvil. The anvil is mounted to be movable with respect to the ultrasound sonotrode on a movable mounting. The adjusting unit has a first wedge element connected to the anvil, a second wedge element, and an actuator. The actuator is connected to the second wedge element, and the second wedge element moves relative to the first wedge element to execute a position change of the anvil relative to the ultrasound sonotrode.

Ultrasonic welding device, and packaging machine with an ultrasonic welding device

The present invention relates to an apparatus for homogenizing powder, which includes a drive device and a homogenization unit. The drive device moves the homogenization unit back and forth in at least one horizontal direction. The homogenization unit has a multitude of essentially vertically arranged, rod-shaped elements which are immersed at least partly into a powder to be homogenized.

Apparatus for homogenizing powder

The invention relates to a transporting apparatus for transporting products, which includes a linear drive mechanism, a continuous conveyor system, having two parallel straight conveyor regions and two curved conveyor regions each connecting one end of the straight conveyor regions, and a plurality of conveyor elements. The conveyor elements extend along the continuous conveyor system and convey the products to be conveyed along at least a portion of the conveyor system while being guided along a guide path. The linear drive mechanism includes a first linear segment and a second linear segment, which are disposed parallel to the straight conveyor regions. The curved conveyor regions of the conveyor system are advantageously embodied as driveless.
