Contactless power supply 

Continuous powering of rail-mounted conveyor applications and transportation systems.

Introduction

Power Rail is our system family for contactless power supply to systems with rail-mounted vehicles. This type of power supply is made for high-speed traveling over long distances, free from emissions, and suitable for wet and damp environments as well as water applications. The 85 kHz version offers even higher system efficiencies, smaller application sizes and lower system weights. 

  • Modular and suited for long-distance tracks
  • Unlimited movements and high traveling speeds
  • Withstands harsh and sensitive environments
The sorter is the core of modern Baggage Handling Systems. Reliability, security, and low O&M costs are the critical factors of its success.
