Applications
Wherever AS-Interface is being adopted - and the simple connectivity and
robustness of the system means that is in more and more applications
worldwide - you will find Airbox as the ideal controller of pneumatic actuators.
- Conveyor Systems
- Mainly stops, lifters and diverters. Airbox is ideal for mounting close
to these actuators. No special enclosure or protection is required.
- Automotive Production
- Airbox is operating under arduous conditions in manufacturing cells
throughout the UK. Underbody chassis welding robotics is one example, 24 hour
component assembly with integrated testing is another.
- Food Industry
- Airbox design, and stainless fitting options with IP67 standard makes
Airbox suitable for clean areas and wash down. Applications include food
production, food canning and packaging and dairies.
- Process Industries
- Airbox is widely used as a pilot device for switching larger
pneumatically operated flow valves. Airbox will happily operate in outdoor
conditions. Applications frequently involve the rapid operation of rotary
cylinders.
- Packaging
- The high operating speed of Airbox makes this a perfect product,
particularly where pre-build and on site re-commisioning procedures are
used. Complex lines such as tea bag production use the versatile features of
auxiliary air for failsafe restart after e-stop.
