Hänel EcoLoad®

Twin-motor design

The drive systems of all Hänel Rotomat® carousels are housed inside the carousel casing. This ensures optimal freedom of movement in front of the carousel.

Almost all Hänel Rotomat® storage carousels are equipped with twin motors. This guarantees less wear and quieter running. The right and left drive motors are controlled in sync. The simultaneous acceleration and braking of the two drives means that the multifunction carriers are moved without distortion. The twin motor design also ensures optimal balance if the load on the carrier is distributed unevenly.

Stable carrier suspension on 4-point sliding carriage principle

The Hänel Rotomat® carrier suspension is designed according to the sliding carriage principle so that the carriers are suspended from 4 levers on 4 rollers on left and right.

Suspension from 4 levers means that transverse forces are safely absorbed, reducing wear substantially and making running quieter.

Safety Bypass System

Hänel Rotomat® storage carousels work reliably and failure-free. If a malfunction should arise, however, Hänel's optional Safety Bypass System comes into effect in certain cases.

If a light barrier curtain or door switch is defective, for example, the user can continue to operate the Hänel Rotomat® until the Hänel service technician arrives by activating the Safety Bypass System and closing the sliding door.

Hänel EcoLoad®

Energy-efficient loading

The Hänel Rotomat® also has a smart energy conservation concept – the Hänel EcoLoad®.

As the Rotomat® works on the principle of rotation, a lot of energy can be saved by ensuring even load distribution. So the load status of the Hänel Rotomat® is continuously monitored.

This enables the Hänel microprocessor controller to achieve optimum distribution of the storage items thanks to loading recommendations. If system operators follow the recommendations, the inventory items inside the storage system are kept in nearly perfect balance.

As a result, very little energy is required for the rotation movement.

Accurate positioning

Accurate positioning of the shelf levels

The Hänel Rotomat® multifunction positioning system MFPS 1 is able to position each level of a carrier with exceptional accuracy when the load is evenly distributed. The intelligent Hänel microprocessor control systems, such as the MP 12 N, also have a brake path monitoring and correction system installed which records any push-on effect caused by a high load imbalance and carries out a correction when the carousel starts up again.

New stop positions can be programmed easily with the teach-in process.
