ESD Conductive Gravity Flow Rack Four Tier Roller Track Line-side Kitting Cart for SMT Workshop Transport

This ESD conductive gravity flow rack is the static controlled version of the lightweight flatbed turnover rack. The frame uses conductive anodised aluminium profile, the flow tracks use stainless steel roller and skate wheel elements, and a grounding stud on the base connects the whole rack to the workshop earth. Charge built up on the frame, the tracks and the containers drains through that path instead of reaching the boards stacked on the shelves.

Four tiers give more storage in the same floor footprint than the standard two tier version, and each tier is a separate FIFO lane: parts are loaded at the back, roll forward by gravity to the picking face, and are taken from the front in the order they were loaded. Slope is set with slotted brackets so a lane can be adjusted to the weight of the container it carries, from light chip trays to heavier metal parts bins.

Because conductive material and stainless tracks add weight, the frame moves up to the 4080 profile and the casters are specified with brakes on the two front wheels. The rack still stays low and narrow enough to pass between SMT line equipment and through a narrow aisle, and the top beam is kept out of the way so an operator can reach the lower tiers without bending far.

Typical use is line side kitting on SMT and PCBA assembly lines, feeding components to a manual insertion station, staging inspected boards before packing, and moving small mixed batches between two departments that share the same static protected area.

• ESD conductive frame in conductive anodised aluminium profile with grounding stud
• Stainless roller and skate wheel tracks for conductive, low friction flow
• Four tier FIFO layout with separate loading and picking faces per lane
• Adjustable lane slope set with slotted brackets to match container weight
• Up to 500kg total load on the 4080 frame, evenly distributed over four tiers
• Braking swivel casters keep the rack in place at the station
• Low, narrow footprint that passes between line equipment and through narrow aisles
• Made to order: tier count, lane width, slope and caster type to your line

Choose the conductive version when the rack stands inside an ESD protected area, when bare boards or static sensitive components are taken directly from the shelves, or when four or more FIFO lanes are needed in one compact footprint. For dry storage of sealed cartons outside a static control area, the standard lightweight flatbed turnover rack is the lower cost choice.
