The Bosch Rexroth CONNECTING KIT VF+ 120 BRIDGE BELT R (3842558005) is a specialized connection kit designed for integrating an active belt bridge into conveyor systems. This kit serves as a transfer unit to bridge the gap between conveyor sections, notably between the basic unit and return unit, or for connecting to third-party conveyors. It is particularly adept at handling conveyed materials starting from a minimal length, which can vary based on factors such as speed, product friction, and the position of the center of gravity. The CONNECTING KIT VF+ 120 BRIDGE BELT R is engineered for use exclusively with flat conveyor chains and static friction chains. It boasts a drive mechanism powered by transmission from either the drive or return unit side. The versatility of this kit allows installation on both sides while ensuring that users select the correct left-right (LR) version for their specific application. Notably, this connection kit is not suitable for operations involving wet conditions, abrasive environments, or sharp-edged products and does not support accumulation. The load capacity varies with speed—a detail provided in an accompanying diagram—and it's important that the speed of adjacent conveyors matches to minimize wear and tear. The design facilitates simple drive force transmission through hexagonal hollow shafts that are standard in both base and return units. This feature also makes it possible to retrofit the belt bridge into existing conveyor systems without significant modifications. Additionally, maintenance is straightforward with easy access to replace belts from above. Constructed from durable materials such as aluminum, non-rusting steel, PAPEABS, and PUR, this connection kit promises longevity and resistance against corrosion. It comes partially assembled with a weight condition specified by Bosch Rexroth. The scope of delivery includes fastening material, transmission components, and a protective cover ensuring that all necessary parts are available for installation right out of the box.
