The TGU Telescopic Gate Unit creates a controlled passageway for personnel in long production lines. The gate unit has two consecutive belt sections for transporting PCBs; the first belt section fixed and acting as a buffer and the second belt section is a telescopic buffer. When closed, the gate unit transports PCBs from the previous unit to the next with the fixed belt section in the gate unit acting as a buffer. When opened, the gate unit notifies the previous unit that it cannot accept any PCBs. Both belt sections in the gate unit can be equipped with an automatic width-adjustment module that adjusts the position of the rear transport rail to the width of the PCB. The TGU Telescopic Gate Unit integrates easily in a fully automated SMEMA-compatible test environment.
