Cart Release
The RSI cart is released by a signal being sent to a 4-way valve, which in turn supplies air to the cylinder controlling the stop arm. This can be achieved 2 ways. PNEUMATIC 1: A cart , on the up-stream of the workstation, activates a pneumatic limit switch. 2: The pneumatic limit switch sends a signal to a 4-way valve. 3: The spool , in the 4-way valve, moves so that the output controlling the release of the cylinder is aligned. 4: 4-way valve sends signal to cylinder 5: Stop unit drops. 6: Up-Stream limit switch will reset stop unit. ELECTRIC 1: After a predetermined count, an electric pulse is sent to the electric 4-way valve. 2: The spool , in the 4-way valve, moves so that the output controlling the release of the cylinder is aligned. 3: 4-way valve sends signal to cylinder 4: Stop unit drops. 5: Reset stop 3 ways: A: cart moves off of present switch and stop unit is reset. B: Cart activates pneumatic limit switch, upstream, which resets stop unit. C: After a predetermined time, a signal is sent to 4-way and stop unit is reset.
play
Workstation
A Workstation is an area along the path of the conveyor. This is where work is performed on the product being carried on the conveyor. A workstation is a position, on the conveyor, where the cart is disengaged from the conveyor, for a predetermined time, so that work can be preformed on the product. This allows the product to come to you and saves time and energy. No having to walk with the conveyor so that work can be preformed.
play
Wheel Turner
The RSI Pin Turner is used in conjunction with the RSI Top Turner. The RSI Pin Turner is placed before a accumulation area, to rotated the cart top 90 degrees from the conveyor. This allows for minimum room for the carts. The RSI Pin Turner allows for a nice steady translation from being parallel to conveyor to being 90 degrees from conveyor.
play
Vert Lift
The Vertical Lift is one of several fixtures that can be incorporated onto the top of the RSI cart. The Vertical list allows varying work heights of a product. This can be adjusted at all workstation to suit the personnel requirements for that station. This product meets or exceeds the requirements for ergonomic positioning.
play
transfer
The RSI Conveyor Transfer is used to move product from multiple conveyors to where it is needed. Bypass stations that require longer or shorter dwell times. Bypass Stations that might not be required. Bypass & proceed to correct station required. Allows multiple types of operations on one conveyor system. Perfect for "Just-n-Time" or Lean manufacturing or assemble. {Kaizen}
play
Side Pin
An RSI Side-Pin Cart allows personnel to work on 3 sides of the cart without having to step over the conveyor. This allows for faster times in time critical stages. Add this to the cart top rotation and no obstructions in your work area. A surface mounted towline with all the benefits of an in-floor system.

Ease mods
Modifications to the RSI Towline is simplicity itself. To modify an existing RSI Towline, a few items need to be accomplished. 1: Design change of conveyor. If the conveyor has multiple drives, this is critical. 2: Order the necessary components for the conveyor. 3: For on-floor conveyor, chalk the centerline of the new conveyor. move any obstacles in the way. 4: For in-floor system, have trench made for new section. 5: Cut chain and add track and or turns. 6: Back fill trench if this is an in-floor system. 7: install delay stations, if required. 8: Install chain and connect to existing. 9: Add extra carts, if needed. 10: Run system.
play
Ease Install
Installation The installation of the RSI Towline is straight forward from the start to the finish. All the engineering is performed prior to installation. Because everything is accomplished before-hand, this gives the RSI Towline an air of simplicity. RSI does not believe in making things complicated, but we will give the customer what is needed. At every step of the way, RSI is there from start to finish.

drives

Drive Options
RSI offers two standard , vari-speed, drive units. A} Series #3000 inline & pitted drive utilized when customers desire a drive flush to the floor with minimum obstructions. B} Series #5000 surface mounted drive requires no concrete work and is very low profile in design. Both drives are low maintenance and self contained with take-up and oiler incorporated. Time tested and proven for years of operation.
play
Cart Rotation
Cart Rotation In areas where the customer needs work performed on their product, the cart top can be rotated. This allows the operator to stay in one area without moving him or his equipment. This can allow only a single placement of material being used instead of multiple placements needed when operating on both sides of the conveyor. Another benefit is that the product will always be between the operator and the filters if used in conjunction with a sanding or spray booth or assembly process. Cart top will lock in place on 90 degree increments. Automatic rotation is available upon request.
play
Antibackup
The RSI Anti Backup, with backup rail, allows for the last cart in an accumulation area to fully dis-engage from the conveyor. Normally the last cart in an accumulation will rock or surge. The anti backup performs the function of allowing the cart to only move in one direction making for a totally smooth operation.
play
accumulation
Accumulation areas are incorporated into a system design when it meets any of the following criteria : 1: no manual work performed in this area 2: Critical time sensitive flash, cool or drying rate 3: limited area. 4: Queue zones required for staging. RSI accomplishes this by rotating the cart top 90 degrees. This allows the carts to accumulate end to end with only 1 stop unit , at the front of the area. This allows for a smaller footprint . By having a smaller footprint, work that previously would not have been on the conveyor, can be incorporated or the extra area can be used for any number of things.
