Zero Tangent  Radius Conveyor (ZTR)

Muvro’s Zero Tangent Radius Conveyor (ZTR) provides a space optimised solution for facilities that need uninterrupted product flow through tight corners. Mainly Used where sharp turn required. This type of belt does not Requires tangent straight before/after curve. By combining a modular plastic belt platform with a true zero tangent curve geometry, the conveyor can pivot products through angles from 30 ° to 180 ° without any straight lead in or ...

Key Features

Sharp Cornering

True zero tangent geometry enables instant directional change (30 °–180 °) without intermediate straight segments.

Ultra Compact Footprint

Inner radii as small as 600 mm maximise usable floor area, ideal for dense production or warehouse zones.

Modular Plastic Belt

Zero Contact 520 belt (Movex Modutech) in PP or POM provides high strength, low friction, FDA option materials, and tool less link replacement—leveraging the same quick maintenance philosophy as Muvro’s straight modular belt lines.

Integrated Side Guides

Custom height guides and hold downs maintain load stability through high g turns.

Energy Efficient Drive

SEW KA F helical bevel IE3 motors paired with VFDs deliver smooth acceleration, precise speed control (10–75 m min), and reduced power draw.

Low Noise & Low Wear

UHMW “BlueLUB” wear strips and noise damping rollers cut sound levels and extend belt life—a proven benefit from Muvro’s modular belt portfolio.

Why Choose ZTR

Operational Benefits

By removing the need for traditional straight sections before and after a curve, the ZTR frees floor space that can be redeployed for production equipment or operator access. Continuous flow through the curve keeps line speed consistent and eliminates bottlenecks, while selectable angles and belt widths allow engineers to tailor the conveyor to virtually any footprint. The smooth plastic belt surface and closed loop speed control protect fragile or high value goods, and maintenance costs remain low thanks to clip in belt modules, sealed bearings, and self lubricated wear strips that reduce both downtime and spare parts inventory.

Control & Automation Suite

Drive & Speed Regulation

  • Each ZTR conveyor is supplied with an IE3 grade helical bevel motor governed by a VFD, allowing precise adjustment of speeds between 10 and 75 m min⁻¹ as product mix or upstream demand changes.

PLC & Network Integration

  • The drive package interfaces seamlessly with PLCs from Siemens, Allen Bradley, or Beckhoff via Profinet, EtherNet/IP, or EtherCAT networks.

Sensor-Based Control

  • Photoelectric and ultrasonic sensors provide zone accumulation, jam detection, and run on demand functionality.

HMI Interface (Optional)

  • An optional HMI touch panel gives operators real time diagnostics, recipe based speed profiles, and proactive maintenance alerts.

Safety PLC Integration

  • All safety I/O can be handled through an integrated SIL rated safety PLC when required.

Industry Applications

1

Manufacturing & Assembly

It threads automotive sub assemblies, PCB panels, or appliance parts through dense production cells.

2

Food & Beverage

To guide packaged snacks, bakery trays, or ready meal cartons around tight corners in hygienic rooms.

3

Pharmaceutical and Cosmetics

Producers rely on its GMP compliant construction for blister packs, vials, and cartons.

4

Warehouses and Distribution

Centres integrate ZTR loops into pick modules and mezzanine transfers.

5

Airport Baggage Systems

Even airport baggage systems deploy the conveyor in baggage make up zones

Safety Provisions

Integrated Personnel Safety

  • Personnel safety is embedded in the ZTR design.

Guarding & Protective Covers

  • Full height fencing and clear polycarbonate covers keep operators clear of moving parts without impairing visibility.

Emergency Stop Accessibility

  • Emergency stop push buttons and pull cord switches are positioned for fast access along the entire curve.

LOTO Implementation

  • Clearly labelled Lock Out/Tag Out points enable safe electrical and mechanical isolation during service.

Standards Compliance

  • These measures allow the conveyor to meet ISO, OSHA, and CE safety directives.
