Bosch Rexroth announced the TS 7plus transfer system, a freely configurable, fully electric conveyance solution, capable of transporting heavy payloads up to 6,600 pounds.
TS 7plus transports material via conveyor rollers on freely configurable modular sections with lift/transverse, rotary and positioning units, as well as stop gates. The 350-millimeter minimum possible transportation height for both longitudinal and transverse conveying helps facilitate manual processes and improve ergonomics for employees, while the standard dimensions of the workpiece pallets are up to 2,200 x 3,000 millimeters.
The conveyor section consists of either solid or hollow rollers, which are approximately 50% larger than the previous TS 7 system. The reduced number of moving parts per meter increases availability and the newly designed bearing block enables faster assembly with two mounting tabs in the profile, as well as easy replacement for maintenance.
Lubrication-free king shaft
Unlike chain drives, the tried-and-tested drive via king shafts operates without lubrication and requires minimal maintenance. The motor’s torque is transmitted to the conveyor rollers via bevel gears, thus minimizing contamination of the workpieces. The bevel gears also require no re-tensioning or maintenance.
In conventional accumulation operations, stop gates keep workpiece pallets at defined stations. With the alternative segmented operation, the motors for section transport, rotary units and lift/transverse units run only when required.
This increases energy efficiency across the entire life cycle and reduces the total cost of ownership. In addition, the motors can be designed smaller and benefit from a longer service life due to their demand-based operation. Bosch Rexroth offers motors with outputs of 180 W and 250 W for the TS 7plus, as well as an interface for the use of third-party motors.
High conveyor speed, no interfering contours
The motors can be placed on either the outside or inside of the section. With internally mounted motors, there are no interfering contours that could otherwise hinder employees or protrude into travel paths. With a conveyor speed of up to 24 meters/minute, the system achieves shorter transport times than automated guided vehicles (AGVs).
CAD-free configuration with planning software MTpro
The intuitive planning software MTpro assists in the configuration of transfer systems, including TS 7plus, and guides users quickly and easily through the process. Bosch Rexroth offers the software as a locally installable full version and as an installation-free web version in the form of MTpro Online Designer. The software automatically creates CAD models and parts lists from builds, which can be transferred to the Rexroth Store or to certified partners.
Bosch Rexroth conveyance experts will be available to discuss the TS 7plus in booth 2810 at Automate 2026.
