XTS: Agile transport for pitchless, asynchronous packaging
Mechanical flexibility
Ne Xtstep
The XTS advantage
infinitely flexible dramatically reduces machine size faster time to market embed XTS directly into machines configure for any track geometry install flat, vertical or at angles repeat or stack XTS tracks 30–50% reduction in machine footprint
Manufacturers around the world need to offer increasingly customized products – with machines that deliver reduced footprint and improved productivity. 7 he eXtended Transport System (XTS) from Beckhoff answers these machine design challenges and more. In combination with PC- and EtherCATbased control technology, the XTS features a high level of design freedom for machine builders to develop game-changing concepts for product transport, handling and assembly. A stainless steel hygienic XTS version is ideal for use in the pharmaceutical and food industries.
Take your next step in machine design with XTS: total freedom of installation position compact design integrates directly into machinery freely selectable track geometries few mechanical parts and system components
