QuickStick Intelligent Conveyor System

Fast, Clean, Efficient
QuickStick Intelligent Conveyor System
Independent Cart Technology
  • iTRAK Intelligent Track Systems
  • MagneMover Lite Intelligent Conveyor System
  • QuickStick Intelligent Conveyor System

QuickStick® is an intelligent conveyor system that increases throughput and reduces total cost of ownership. It provides assembly and process automation markets with a faster, cleaner, and more efficient alternative to pallet conveyor systems.


Faster Than a Traditional Conveyor

Using MagneMotion® linear synchronous motor technology, QuickStick modules are configured end-to-end, creating an electro-magnetic force to propel carriers up to 10 times faster than traditional systems. QuickStick quickly and easily integrates into the Logix control environment using Studio 5000® Application Code Manager with Machine Builder Libraries. More complex move profiles are possible using a SYNC IT controller with an Allen-Bradly PLC and high-speed vehicle position feedback. Features include:

  • Motors available in regular and high thrust
  • Independent and bidirectional payload propulsion and control
  • Fewer moving parts, which means less maintenance
  • Lower energy requirements due to highly efficient synchronous motors
  • No power/communication cables on vehicles, allowing long travel distances and superior flexibility
  • Built-in anti-collision feature helps prevents damage to payloads
  • CE Mark and UL Recognized
