UsageDirections

May only be used for pallet transfer.People may not ride it under any circumstances.

Can be ridden by the operator as well as transferring pallets/carts.

*Separate operators are necessary to load and unload the cargo.

After loading the cargo on the automatic loading/unloading conveyor, all other operations are conducted automatically.

Just as with a normal elevator, operation is conducted by a single operator.*Each operation, such as calling, opening and closing the doors, inserting the cargo, and raising and lowering, takes a certain amount of time.

LegalHandling

● Defined as a "Vertical Reciprocating Conveyor" under the Japanese Industrial Standards (JIS).                             [JIS B8950]

● The definition of a hoisting machine (elevator/hoisting machine for small items only) under the Building Standards Act does not apply.

 ・Hoisting machines are defined as construction equipment; however, vertical conveyors (vertical transfer systems) are treated as different to hoisting machines.

[Interpretation of the technical standards for hoisting machines]

● The definition of an elevator/simple lift under the Industrial Safety and Health Act does not apply.

 ・Although elevators and simple lifts are regulated in the Safety Ordinance for Cranes etc., made under the Industrial Safety and Health Act, vertical conveyors (vertical transfer systems) are not covered by this regulation.

                   [Interpretation of the Safety Ordinance for Cranes etc.]  ・It is categorized as a vertical conveyor in the "Technical Guidelines Concerning Conveyor

Safety Standards," and its specifications are in accordance with said guidelines.         [Industrial Safety and Health Act, Article 151 (77) to (83)]

Summary of the differences:

High transfer performance and energy-saving design

Autolator [Heavy Duty]Approximately 90 pallets per hour

Cargo ElevatorApproximately 40 pallets per hour

When transferring pallets (actual cargo height of 2,400mm) the Autolator [Heavy Duty] achieves a perfor-mance equal to approximately 2 cargo elevators.

Unlike an elevator, there is no legal requirement to conduct periodic inspections, which reduces maintenance costs.As transfer is continuous, the loss of energy on startup is negated. Also, the system features comprehensive energy-saving control, such as automatically stopping when there are no further cargo items to transfer. *Energy-saving control (sequential starting and stopping control): Conveyors receiving cargo are activated sequentially, and automatically stop once cargo has passed through.Forklift drivers need only load items onto the auto-assistor (automatic

loading/unloading conveyor). Operating efficiency is improved at each stage as there is no unnecessary wait time.

There is no waiting time for calling and opening and closing of doors etc., and transfer is fully automated.

In the situation depicted in the above diagram, conveyors ② ③, and ④ (with no cargo items on them) are stopped. Conveyors are activated sequentially when ready to receive cargo and stop when cargo has passed through.

Easy installation

As a machine room is not necessary, installation is easy in any building, whether new or existing. Unlike an elevator, there is no need to apply for building certification or completion inspection.

Ancillary work when installing in an existing building (building work not undertaken by HOKUSHO)① Aperture work② Primary power source connection work③ Suspended components installation work ④ Pit work (if a pit is necessary)

Ancillary work when installing in a fire compartment (building work not undertaken by HOKUSHO)① Fire shaft work② Fire shutter installation work③ Heat/smoke sensor installation work ④ Fire alarm wiring work

Safe Design

Various anomaly detection devices have been installed to ensure the safety of the operator as well as the cargo and the machinery.

*If AEWVarious Fault Detection DevicesAccident Prevention Features

④ The control mechanism employs a highly visible and easy to operate color touch panel. It displays the operating status, and if there is a fault, the fault will be displayed along with how to resolve it, so that safety can be restored as quickly as possible.

③ The control box is fitted with an angle adjustment feature, so the control panel screen can be placed at a convenient angle.

*The control box is made from ABS plastic, so it is only available in a dark grey color. *In special environments (i.e. low temperatures, washed, and anti-explosion) a steel

housing may be used.

① A guard-rail is fitted to prevent intrusion into the automatic loading/unloading conveyor and the surrounding area.

*The paintwork is the same color as the standard color of the main unit. Specifying the color requires a special order (custom).

② The control box is located in front of and above the safety railing. An emergency stop button and interphone/signal tower (3-colored signal lights) are fitted as standard. Operation, faults, and full load are indicated by lamps, and warnings are indicated by buzzers for your safety.

Main unit's hoisting section: oilless operation & no metal filings

(Pallet Transferring) Belt hoist type vertical reciprocating transfer Machine

Belt Heavy DutyAutolator

Next-Generation ModelMulti-Floor Vertical Transfer SystemsThe Belt Hoist Type Vertical Reciprocating Transfer Machine: [Belt] Autolator is a completely new type of next-generation vertical conveyor that uses a resin belt-driven mechanism instead of a steel chain to raise or lower hoisting cages (carriages) within the main unit. There are no metal sliding parts in the main unit's hoisting section, so no metal filings are produced and no lubrication is required. Also, using the lateral transfer apparatus (automatic loading/unloading conveyor) allows for 100% oilless operation.*The belt drive roller conveyor for 1000kg cargo is a special order (custom).This conveyor uses a highly-reliable timing belt made from high-quality urethane, offering superior oil and ozone resistance.It can be safely used in locations which demand a clean environment such as pharmaceutical and food production plants that must be free of oil mist and metal filings, or in factories producing rechargeable batteries, etc.

* Please consult us before installing in a location facing outdoors. * Please inform us if you have any requirements concerning fire compartments etc. * Please inform us regarding the environment in which you will install the equipment if it will be

used with chemicals, in low-temperature warehouses, or handle dangerous items etc.

■Installation location: Indoors* Ambient temperature should be between 0 and 40℃.* Ensure that no condensation occurs.

■Cargo item size (mm)/ [Cargo Weight]/

* A chain drive roller conveyor is standard, but an oilless belt drive conveyor can be custom-made via special order. Please contact us for further details.* An in-shutter conveyor is required when installing unit in a hoistway (fire shaft).

* Please consult us if the weight of cargo items may exceed 1000kg.

* Please consult us before creating a line connecting an auto-assistor to a horizontal conveyor.

* A chain drive roller conveyor is standard, but an oilless belt drive conveyor can be custom-made via special order. Please contact us for further details.

Due to its frame construction, installation is possible in locations without a hoistway (fire shaft) if an anti-shake buffer is fitted. In these circumstances, there is a height limit. Also, the Fire Services Act may apply.

■[Belt] Autolator Structure

MechanismThe Autolator main unit comprises a hoisting cage (carriage) conveyor with a counterweight connected by a belt which is suspended from a drive shaft sprocket. During operation, vertical transfer is achieved by raising and lowering the hoisting cage (carriage) while keeping the cargo level. The main unit's motor uses an inverter, so starting and stopping is smooth.

The [Light Frame] pursues ultimate environmental performance (resource and energy conservation) by reducing the weight of the frame while maintaining strength, reducing steel consumption by about 15% (compared to our previous models), and reducing CO2 emissions from transportation by over 25%.

* Lifting height: Refers to transfer stroke in the vertical direction, and is measured from cargo loading level height on installation floor up to cargo loading level height on top floor.

* Hoist speed: Range of error of ±10% of indicated values.●How to calculate: Max. cargo size of 1100(W) x1100(L)mm,

auto-loading/unloading speed of 12m/minute○Specification A: No hoistway (fire shutter) and 1 auto-assistor

(machine length of 1,691mm)○Specification B: Installed in hoistway (fire shutter), 1 auto-assistor

(machine length of 1,500mm), and 1 in-shutter conveyor (machine length of 857mm)

* An automatic loading/unloading speed of 18~24m/minute (controlled by inverter) enables a 15%~25% increase in performance. (Optional)

Automatic Loading/Unloading Conveyors: Indispensable for Safe Work with Vertical Transfer Machines(Pallet Transferring) Automatic Loading/Unloading Conveyor

Roller Type

The auto-assistor is a horizontal conveyor that is indispensable to a fully automated transfer system. Installed on each floor station of a vertical transfer system, it links up with the hoisting cage (carriage) conveyors, enabling smooth in-and-out transfer of pallets.In addition, linking multiple units together allows you to temporarily pause pallet movement and adjust operation time, resulting in a more efficient three-dimensional automated transfer line.

Auto-assistor

A wealth of optional extras and variable controlSelect from two types (roller or chain) depending on pallet size and load direction. In addition, we can provide optional extras as necessary for a variety of operations, such as a forklift detection device.

Energy-saving designThe auto-assistor is extremely economical, with low running costs thanks to cargo-carrying conveyors activating sequentially, as well as automatic shutdown once cargo has passed through (Takt transfer system).

■Choose from 3 automatic loading/unloading speeds of 8, 10, and 12 (m/minute).

* An automatic loading/unloading speed of 18~24m/minute (controlled by inverter) enables a 15%~25% increase in performance. (Optional)

Features

■Forklift detection device (optional)

This device automati-cally shuts down the conveyor temporarily when it detects a forklift approaching the auto-assistor. It also shuts down the auto-assistor in response to detecting personnel.
