The ACC® is an overhead conveyance system that consists of carriers that provide reliable and consistent point-to-point movement of everything from small parts to heavy parts. They are battery powered, individually programmed vehicles that run wirelessly on simple I-Beam without chain. This system incorporates a wireless ethernet network that will send instructions to each ACC® via access points. The carrier is mounted to an I-Beam in much the same way as a traditional overhead carrier. These carriers are propelled along the I-Beam using a spring-loaded traction drive wheel. The I-beam and carrier drive are sized accordingly by weight and capacities range from 10 lbs. to 12,000 lbs. Overhead conveyance in a facility can be thought of as modular and scalable in concept allowing for production volumes to be easily adapted for all scenarios. Expand as your company grows and implement the right number of vehicles for the job.  The autonomous nature of the vehicles, enables demand-oriented process times instead of fixed-cycle times, even allowing different applications and quality requirements to be realized for different part profiles.

Every Therma-Tron-X conveyor system is custom designed for a specific application. The engineers at TTX take into consideration versatility, productivity and flexibility when examining process requirements, material handling needs and space. TTX conveyors automate any finishing operation and seamlessly link a variety of processes. Conveyors can significantly reduce the amount of labor needed to move parts around a plant. These conveyor systems can be integrated into electrocoating, powder coating, liquid spray-painting, cleaning, pretreatment, and heat-treating operations. The conveyors are designed to reduce labor cost, increase efficiency and are rugged: requiring minimal maintenance. They can be designed to fully automate a manufacturing process through the efficient transfer of products between manufacturing, finishing, final assembly, and shipping areas.

Therma-Tron-X has been designing and building monorail finishing systems and components since its inception. Monorail systems carry parts through the paint application process on a continuous moving chain. TTX monorail electrocoating systems feature a unique immersion tank design that enhances paint circulation and helps prevent agglomeration, settling and foaming. TTX monorail finishing systems feature multiple stage stainless steel washers, ovens designed to minimize heat loss, and conveyor systems that utilize high efficiency drives. In addition, climate controlled environmental rooms provide optimal air-flow for stable application conditions. TTX can also supply combination monorail systems that apply a powder or liquid topcoat over an E-coat primer. TTX monorail systems can utilize spray and immersion technologies. The immersion tank design eliminates dead spots, minimizes surface disturbance, and allows for complete tank drainage.  TTX monorails are utilized for powder systems, fluidized bed dip systems, E-coat systems, liquid paint systems and other custom combination systems.

A power and free conveyor fully automates your manufacturing process and efficiently transfers product between manufacturing, finishing, and final assembly/shipping areas. It can allow the load/unload to be stationary while the rest of the products that travel in the free track remain in motion. If used with SlideRail Square Transfer® technology, loads are grouped for high density through E-coat primer, then ungrouped to expose parts for subsequent applications. The power and free conveyor consists of interconnected power track and free track channels. A constantly moving drive chain propels product carriers through the system. When stopped, the carrier idles in the free rail beneath the chain. When the load is released, the chain re-engages with the carrier and pulls it to its destination. Switches can also direct carriers onto different conveyor lines, making power and free conveyors extremely versatile. TTX’s hydraulic or electrical lowerators are available to assist in the loading/unloading of parts. They are equipped with double lifting straps for safety.

TTX Environmental specializes in chemical precipitation, metal sorption, ion exchange and membrane separation. TTX Environmental focuses exclusively on water and wastewater treatment products, paying close attention to changing regulations and new environmental concerns. Engineers from TTX Environmental evaluate wastewater streams before recommending the best wastewater system for the customer. A wide variety of modular system components are easy to install and provide flexibility for future expansion. These systems recycle cleaners, neutralize acids and alkalis, precipitate metals, detackify paints, clarify output water, and concentrate solids for disposal. Systems can be operated on a batch or continuous basis, depending on volume. The wastewater treatment systems require very little maintenance and are fabricated using only high-quality materials. Wastewater treatment units can help cut down on water and sewer costs and require minimal manpower to operate. The TTX Environmental wastewater treatment systems keep facilities in compliance with federal and state regulations.

The SST® coating system is unlike any other system in the finishing business. Not only does it significantly reduce the amount of floor space needed, but it also allows increased load density. Modular construction allows for faster installation, and the automatic voltage control reduces paint costs. The PLC makes it easy to automatically lengthen immersion times and ensure proper coating thicknesses, as well as monitoring tank levels and oven temperatures. Therma-Tron-X SST® systems can handle high volume electrocoating, auto-deposition coating, powder coating, liquid spray painting, cleaning, pretreatment, and heat-treating operations with ease. From screws to truck bodies, SST® systems are designed to handle a variety of part sizes, weights, and complexities. Since the parts index is vertically in and out through each stage, immersion and spray treatments can be accomplished in tanks only slightly larger than the maximum work envelope. This greatly reduces tank charging costs, as well as minimizing water and utilities consumption. SST® systems are also fully automated, demand less floor space and require minimal labor to operate and maintain.
